an old idea plan dated 1.5 years ago
So your burning question is, does it look like this now?
hah. No, hardly.
And to be honest, I don't think I would do this now anyways.
We moved in a few months ago to this house and we just love it here. It took us a while to get things settled in and organized but now it's time to beautify.
The problem is there are so many styles and colors to choose from (especially with the help of pinterest). I mean, I feel like I could change the decor of my house with the mood of each day, couldn't you? Luckily the house has a very distinct character so that narrows it down somewhat. At the same time, we won't live in this house forever so I need to keep long term in mind as well.
Long story short: I'm brainstorming ideas. I've ran a few by Cameron and he says he trusts me (meaning: go ahead and do it but don't empty our savings). I'm really not doing anything drastic. We have our furniture, just colors, textiles and such for the bedrooms and bath. I hope to present the results once I figure out exactly what I want. wish me luck.

I have ideas about how I want to decorate our house, but so far haven't put those plans into motion. Hubby and I are renting now, but I'm hoping when we buy, I will be able to put forth the ideas that I have been wanting to do!
Good luck! Home decorating is the best!
you made a mood board! I love them. of course you've probably seen younghouselove.com but they have great ideas too. And she's a pinterest style maker.

Ha ha your story about your old job....I had one just like it...I did a lot of productive things during my work there :) Im sure you will make your house amazing!
I am in the same boat! We have all our furniture (sans a few pieces) and now I just need to doll the place up. I wish there was some bomb.com service that would help me and not charge me a dime. lol.
I'm in the same place. Such conflicting ideas and styles. I want to be bold, but timeless...ugh Good Luck!
luck is wished. committing is the hardest part. once you hit that, you'll be golden. (:
I so know what you mean! My taste in decor changes constantly. I comfort myself by reminding myself we live in a crummy apartment right now and don't need to worry about decorating until we have our own place.
But once we get our own place . . . yikes! Then the decorating dilemma will begin!

decorating is so so fun! and judging solely by your style, i'd say your house is going to turn out pretty cute :)
your pin board looks great but i know what you mean about changing things up often. i always get the itch to make decor changes. can't wait to get back in my house so i actually have something to decorate.
I can't wait until I have my own house someday! So many great ideas! And pinterest definitely helps haha... Good luck with decorating!!

Love it!
CANNOT WAIT TO SEE . . .
I love that your house is so historical for your family. It's a great feeling to know that members of your family lived and loved in the house you live in now. Our farmhouse has been in my husband's family for 6 generations. I totally know what you mean when you say there is horse hair in your plaster. I am also just getting into the process of gathering ideas to make the house feel like home for us. Good luck with everythig and enjoy the process :) thanks for visiting my blog and leaving some comment love!

It it is so tricky decided on how to decorate your house, especially since you look at it every day and can get sick of it pretty fast! Haha!
I just like to buy good but simple furniture or get antique stuff at flea markets that I can sand down/re-stain/paint that way i can change the wall colours & accent stuff all I want with out breaking the bank.
