A little bit of inspiration: feels like spring bedroom


Spring is fast approaching and this room feels fresh and colorful like the upcoming season.
I really like the fact that everything is white, floors, walls and furniture but that it still feels colorful with all the great fabrics. I'm a bit afraid of color myself in my decor so this is a great way to add color without being stuck with forever. I particularly like the window treatment and I think I will used these blind in the nursery. What do you think?

My house is old (85 years old to be exact) and the windows were changed in the 70's. They need to be changed again because they are ugly, rusty and falling apart. So I have been looking at window options. I love the windows in this picture found on Desire to Inspire. They are beautiful ! Wish I could put windows like this in my house.

A little bit of inspiration: books everywhere



Found this great image on Desire to inspire.
In my place and maybe in your, I could always use more space to put more books.
This photo show us a great solution to my eternal dilemma: where to put my books.
The books become a part of room and have an architecture element to them.
Great inspiration!

A little bit of inspiration: wallpaper frames



Frequent readers of this love already know this but I love wallpapers. But with so many choices and the high price of some of wallpapers, wallpapers can be a bit scary. This image by Shanandchi give us a great solution: Wallpaper frames!! Why do we put wallpapers in frames and hang them on our walls. We can go as big as we want and change often the wallpaper when we are tired of the old one. This could be cheaply and easily and give a great look to your interior and it could also be done with fabric. Thanks Shanandchi for the great idea!

A little bit of inspiration: chalkboard painted door by Haust



In my house, we painted one wall of the kitchen with chalkboard paint and we love it. It's just so fun! We write on it the grocery list, the menu for the week, the countdown for the baby's arrival and any inspiring quote we find. But maybe a wall is too much for you, here is a great idea by Haust. Why do you just paint a door? All the fun and maybe less of the stress. What do you think?
