A couple of months ago, I got it into my head that I wanted
hunter/emerald green curtains for my living room.
Against the better judgment of two of my arts and design
friends, I decided to go for it. Unfortunately, the professionals ended
up being right. The curtains I found looked like a bad camo-green
blanket; sucking up all the light in the room instead of reflecting it
luminously as my imaginary velvet had done. Just a case of a good idea with bad execution? I'm not sure.
You’d think that I’d learn from my mistakes and stop
dreaming about this darn velvet but I keep coming across more images and I’m
just sure that I should be able to make it work…
Maybe as a sofa,
Rue Magazine |
Living Etc. Magazine, h/t: I Hate to Alarm You |
or a headboard,
Grand Oslo Hotel |
or my Louis XVI (ish) style chairs,
(Grace can correct me on
what style my chairs actually are)
These are really leather but you get the idea. |
or ... CURTAINS.

I know, I have a problem. But a girl can dream, right? I hope your day is full of great ideas and great execution.
Happy Weekend!
