Some days...

I wish I could lay in my cozy bed all day.  Yesterday was one of those days where I wish I could have left work and gone home to my bed, pulled the sheets over my head and gone to sleep until the next day.

It was just one of those days...nothing seemed to be going right and I had to try REALLY hard not to be cranky.

Yesterday I was totally wishing I had one of these:

Saturday Pretties

 Love the pink in both rooms (can you tell the island base is pink also)...the mirrored bed is TDF. I wonder if hubby would let me do our room like that? (all images via DecorPad)

upholstered headboard with nail detail

My next home project is something I've been wanting to do for a while.  I love the idea of an oversize upholstered headboard with nail detail.  I am currently trying to decide what fabric and shape I want.  Hubby is very talented and I'm sure could make whatever shape I desire...I'm just not sure about my upholstering skills, so we'll see on that.  As for fabric, I saw a few that I liked on Ballard Designs:
      

 

 

Thoughts? They would go on something like this:

or this:

I have to say, I really like the leopard.  It's small enough to be a neutral but I really don't think that husband will go for leopard...even though it would look so good! (Our bedding is white with a monogram in the center of the duvet...picture it and let me know your thoughts.) 

Happy Labor Day Weekend...xoxo

Note to self: remember that you are in NH. People may be shocked by leopard...

Well-deserved lazy Sunday...

Yesterday Matt and I ran our second half-marathon together...I know it doesn't sound romantic, but to me, it was!  My favorite moment of the day was him circling back after he'd already finished (and registered his time) to run the last 200 yards with me (who does that!).  I was beat but he talked to me and cheered me on to the end...second best part: the post-half chow-session at American Flatbread in Burlington- Yum!

Sometimes he is just so thoughtful I can't even stand it.

Here's a picture of where I would like to lay around all day...

I love the oversized headboard...oh, to be in bed all day....

I wish I were still in bed....

Don't all of these bedrooms look so inviting...what's your favorite? I love them all for different reasons, but if I had to pick one for my very own I'd choose a combination of the bamboo/bed frame and the monogram pillow bed...
