steve and i are moving into our new place next week (♥ ♥ ♥), and i’ve been fiddling with paint colour ideas for my bedroom.

for my last apartment, i really wanted dark and cozy.  i didn’t realize that living in the basement, and painting half of your walls black in a studio apartment, could make it a super cave-like dwelling!  i swear!!!  but on the real, the black paint made it seem more open, if that makes any sense.  that being said, i wanted black in this new place as well.  a trip to ikea earlier in 2014 left me DROOLING over this pastel pink bookcase i just knew i needed… so i’m glad it flows well with all happy hues.

i can’t wait until i’m in a space with all of these happy colours, in addition to the light olive/pea green bookcase and dressers that i’ve scored from ikea over the years. 🙂

i think both my mother and my aunt necie (who is like a grandmother to me) had one of these. god knows where it is now, i’m sure my mother either broke it or threw it away… but i can’t find one online ANYWHERE. (etsy, ebay… etc.)

anyone have one? you’d make my dreams come true and my little heart so happy<3

my neighbor rose has one, but refuses to part with it, lol. i may have to hijack it…

i found them on my hunt for a kitschy new shower curtain.
