Retro Modern Farmhouse Kitchen

A kitchen designed to accompany the dining room I made. Mostly white and grey/greige with apple green accents and natural elements.

Modern Farmhouse Dining Room

My latest Polyvore creation: a modern farmhouse dining room. I've decided to go with green as the main accent color in my kitchen and dining room; I even finally got brave enough to order my Kitchenaid stand mixer in apple green instead of plain white. I like the idea of mixing old and new as well as sleek modern with rustic natural elements.

Master Bathroom Inspiration

This is an idea of what I'd like to do in the master bathroom. I like the idea of keeping it light & bright with a touch of zen/spa features such as the pure white towels and bamboo accents. I also like the idea of purchasing some nice art from Etsy or a local artist and I liked this example that I found on Polyvore. I think this bathroom would go well with pretty much any style master bedroom.

Mid Century Natural Living Room

Another Polyvore set - this time I decided to take on the Living Room. This is just an idea of what I'm thinking of doing in there: grey couches (probably a bit darker than the ones pictured), a neutral color scheme that incorporates browns and greys (the color for the room will mostly come from the books and photos on the built-ins and some art on the walls assuming we ever finish painting them), and natural materials like wood accent tables and a sisal or jute rug. I'd love a couple of real houseplants if the pets wouldn't eat them.

Modern Zen Bedroom

So I finally got around to using Polyvore (the website I use for my other blog to create outfits) to create a room set. Let's just say you'll probably be seeing several of these in the near future. This website is so much fun! Anyway, this is one idea I had for our bedroom. A blend of modern and Asian elements, mostly in light neutrals but with a couple of big color moments with the purple bedding and curtains.
