Moving !

So we will be moving next month & I am excited! Finally no squishing everything into one space! oi.... I have been planning/obsessing over how we will personalize the new space and I've decided on the 3 main sections: Living, Work, Bedroom.

Here are some of the "inspiration" photos I've been collecting. I'm trying to capture a general color scheme & style, not copy object by object.

LIVING AREA inspiration : light, relaxed & handmade.

a relaxed, artsy feel:
earth tones & texture, but more minimal:
a few pieces of vintage or handmade art, in large thin frames:
airy & light, a homemade feel:
floor cushions by window, side tables of varying heights + a tiny fireplace!:

WORK AREA inspiration : Dark masculine industrial.

Large wooden work table, industrial cabinets & chairs:
dark woods & steel black. vintage celestial prints
& display the knick knacks I've collected over the years:


BEDROOM inspiration : Simple blush romantic

L o v e the colors:
simple, thoughtful perfection:
a sweet feminine touch:

Realistically I know our new place isn't going to be nearly AS amazing but I wanted these general themes for the different areas and am aiming to create a more thoughtful & personal space to live/work in. :]

If you were curious, most of these photos were plucked from my Pinterest.

Stargazing


Husby & I went to Joshua Tree to stargaze & day camp. We fire cooked steak & greens (yummy) and froze our butts off peering into the telescope & taking photos. It was extremely cold & dry.

Anyhow I got some cool star shots:

parts of the milky way...

Is that our neighbor Andromeda galaxy? or...? hm..

Another Earth


I want to see this movie!

in Love


with this antique 1930s-40s ring.
so shimmery & romantic & feminine.
not so bling-y, but soft & pretty.

sadly sold but if I ever find another ring just like this.....

Astronomical perspective


An actual photo taken by Cassini Orbiter, of a planet in our solar system: Saturn. when the sun is illuminating it from behind. hello gorgeous.

If you click for larger view and put your nose to the screen you can see a tiny speck within the 2nd largest outer ring in the mid-upper left, is our planet earth.

Astronomers have the most exciting job in the world.

I'm super envious of the century that will be able to travel the galaxies & communicate with or observe other life forms (maybe within our galaxy?). I'm convinced, if we exist there's got to be other life forms tucked away somewhere amongst the trillions & trillions of planets out there. Some may have advanced way beyond us... so much can happen in 13 billion years.

humanity is progressing way too slow... :|
