The Perfect {home-decor} Storm

She is just back from Mexico where wild and vivid colors puctuate the dreamy, heavy air.

She needs a change from the under-the-tuscan-sun-starbucks-shops inspired decor/colors of the past decade.

She has this heavy, ornate coffee table in the garage just waiting for some crazy color to be slapped on it.

A QUICK VISIT TO WWW.CRAIGSLIST.COM HAS (HOPEFULLY) PRODUCED THE NEEDED REPLACEMENT GLASS FOR THIS AMAZING TABLE AT A VERY GOOD PRICE, INDEED!

 

She happened upon (on purpose) a little linens clearance at Kohl’s yesterday.

It is a holiday weekend and her husband can help.  ;}

THESE ARE THE UNPREDICTED ELEMENTS SHAPING UP THE FORCE OF THIS WINDSTORM…

 

I know these are dreadfully shadowy, but they are on my table this morning…making me happy as I ponder the possibilities.  Notice also a piece of Hunter’s artwork from the wall, my old green computer, a notebook, a planner…oh this coffee table project could ruin e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.!

Something is definitely brewing and it could be dangerous.  Original thoughts of a painted piece of furniture and a few new throw pillows is threatening to cause an all-over-every-wall-in-the-whole-stinking-house paint job to be necessary.  There is a mile-long list on the kichen counter of things that could be done…that could also cause this house to be declared to be in a state of utter disaster if she doesn’t just calm the heck down.  The intensity of the storm will blow itself out and perhaps there will be a few nice changes over the course of the next few months.  But right at this moment?

The sound of maracas and Spanish guitar is filling her head….

Beware.

Note:  I am going to see George Clooney in The American this weekend which is perhaps what very-subconsciously gave me the title idea for this blog….hmmmm…or maybe it came from my baby girl, Stormie, the perfect one?

  1. And with that sound of maracas and Spanish guitars filling her head, that means that I need to batten down the hatches and rig for collision. Dive! Dive! Dive! It promises to be a color filled work weekend :)
