GO TEXANS!
Is it noon yet? I'm waiting patiently for the game to start, laundry to finish, and new inspiration to come to me for the house. I really don't know what happened to me this weekend. I've been cooking, baking, waking up super early, AND I walked 3 miles this morning at 7 AM. Yeah, you hurrd me. I don't even know who I am anymore.
On another note, MY FIANCE GETS BACK FROM HIS FISHING TRIP IN EXACTLY 7 HOURS!!!!!! Can you tell I'm just a leeeeetle excited.
I think I shall do a post on the dining room today. The layout of it is going to look something like this (excuse the novice Paint skills):
This is completely just a draft, and I'm only using that to give me an idea of how the color can flow niceeeely and perfectly. The bar is to the left which I will revisit later. Brett and I want an awesome distressed looking wooden table to be the main focal point. Kinda like these..maybe?
It's just gosta be wood peoples. I saw a lovely one at Z-Gallerie this weekend and despite all my Googling ability I am unable to find a pic for the life of me. But it was a beauty. Actually the more I look at the Pottery Barn one, the less I am in love....
I'm torn about the chairs and the wall color. The kitchen will be a pewter gray on the walls with white/gray/silver accents around it. Does the dining room HAVE to have color then? Because I am reaaaaaally loving the look/texture/feel of some black velvet dining chairs. Yes-sir-eeeeeeeee. Like so:
As I'm browsing the w-w-w, I FOUND SOMETHING LOVELY:
She is stunning. Definitely 938420394 times better than the PB one. Thank you, Restoration Hardware. You never fail me. (Shoutout to KG and her dream couch)
OK I am back on track now, ready to focus. So now we be lookin like this:
And some wallpaper!!
But alas, I think my heart lies with simplicity. Maybe mix up the black velvet with some blue or sumfin. But doesn't this look just awesome?
Imagine instead of monkey, there was a fabulous William Wegman piece:
There's our color!!!!!!! :)
Happy Sunday peeps and GO TEXANS.

Again, I apologize for the paint skillz. As the two side chairs, I am absolutely-head-over-heels for these beauties:
I DIEEEEEEEEEEE. They really are so purty (and I wish they were cheaper). Do not fear though-- if you want the most bang for your buck, you can find a similar one at Z Gallerie for $159.99. Yesssssssssssss.
This is where I'm bothered. So far in the dining room there is a wooden table, four black velvet chairs, and two clear "ghost" chairs. I love love love love the different textures with the wood, velvet, and lucite. I just don't know if I can part. But then part of me is like SCRATCH IT ALL let's have some COLOR:
And striped chairs!!
And let's get reallllll crazy with this!!
