Totally Inspired Tuesday by Mallory

Oh me oh my I am inspired! I’ve had my little house on my mind for the past…. well, since I found it and I simply cannot wait to start making it my home. 
23 days ’til I drive to New York! 
H.O.L.Y. C.O.W!!! 
I can’t believe that. 3 weeks. That’s IT! I’m streesssssing yet insanely excited for this adventure in my life! I just know I’m gonna love it. I’m a New Yorker at heart. 
I’m not gonna lie, it’s been one of those… not so inspired days but I’ve had this idea on my computer in my “Home Ideas” file and I have no idea where this image came from but I love it!
I love every little bit of this. I LOVE the turquoise, the mirrored side table, the dress form, the drapes the lighting ahhh!!! I LOVE IT ALL! 
I decided I would love to do some bold-ish furniture with very neutral bedding and some accent pillows. This has it all! 
I am obsesssssed with this Anthropologie quilt.
but I’m really turned off by the price of $288.  That always happens when I’m browsing Anthro. Does that happen to you?? 
I am going to start making this quilt for my master bedroom. 
  
Don’t you just LOVE it!??? I DO!!!!
I’m kind of thinking I’ll do plum purple, mustard yellow and navy blue for my accent colors…. and turquoise. I think. 
I found the tutorial for the quilt here at Kojo Designs. Her tutorial is fabulous and it doesn’t appear to cost very much to complete the whole thing. Maybe around $50? I’ll do my version of this tutorial very soon for you all! 
I’m a TAD torn between white and grey.  White quilt, grey wall?  AHH!  I’m just sooo nervous about white with my 2 kiddos but I just love it so much! I want a clean polished look so I’m leaning toward white.
What do you think?? HELP!!! INPUT PLEASE!!!

  1. I love the look of white bedding with pops of color. That’s what I have on my bed! Also, Target sells a similar bedding:

  2. i was just about to suggest the same thing Julianne said. i own the white one. i wanted the gray antrho comforter but that price tag was not working for me. unfortunately, target doesnt have it in gray, but ive grown to enjoy the white. 🙂

  3. I was going to tell you that target sells bedding that is similar. Looks like Julianne already shared that with you.

    I like there lavender color.

  4. As you know I made that same comforter in ivory and I love it! I’ve made blue, green and yellow accent pillows and it was so worth all the time I put into making it! It was so fun too! You can do it and all your accents colors sound so fun!

  5. Hi Mallory! I think you are hilarious and spectacularly optimistic! (you’ll get a tutorial out “very soon” of a crazy hard quilt right after moving across the country without a lick of furniture, and 2 little kids)

    Welcome to NY! I think it’s so funny that you say you’re a “New Yorker at heart”. Way to embrace your new state! I’m about an hour from Buffalo and have lived here all my life. Maybe our weather this week will make you feel like you’re back in Arizona…. although I bet the humidity is something new. Sorry about that. And the snow. There’s a good 4-5 months stretch of “no spray painting” climate Nov-April, so I hope you can find some great deals on CL and work your magic on some cool furniture this summer!
