I recently said I wanted to officially decorate our 2 guest bedrooms. Right now they have a flat, boring, blah builder grade tan paint on the walls. I like color. I mean, the paint in our family room is literally called lime green. I can't handle boring walls! Well, one of our guest rooms has our old duvet cover. I loved this duvet cover. It's from Pottery Barn and was a really pretty green...however, I learned the hard way that face products do not mix well with pretty duvet covers. 2 words: bleach spots. Sad Loma.
Well on one of our snow/ice days, I made myself get out of the house & go to Target, Hobby Lobby, and TJ Maxx. Those are my 3 favorites...love me a good bargain! I glanced at Target's bedding and found a duvet on CLEARANCE for $34!! I was so excited! I grabbed it and found the 2 matching shams and raced to my other 2 destinations. This is the bedding...very simple..

I found an accent pillow with blues and browns at TJ Maxx. My guest room is beginning to look like a real room! So now all I keep thinking about is paint. I really want a Ralph Lauren textured paint....and guess what? I think I want an earthy/neutral tone. What's wrong with me? This one is called Canyon Fossil.

Ballard Designs is my new favorite. I am obsessed. I absolutely LOVE these pictures! I have been wanting to buy some scrapbook paper and frame it...basically I want this. I can totally make this happen for like 1/8 the cost!

Now, if it would just warm up so I can open these windows and paint!
