‘Tis the season for engagements it seems! A couple of my close girlfriends, as well as a few acquaintances, have recently gotten engaged. With all this love in the air, I can’t help myself from being drawn towards romantic details and pretty, girly colors, which are not typically the norm around here. I was browsing the internet today in search of some wedding ideas for aforementioned girlfriend, and I couldn’t help but notice all of the great mood boards out there for lovely, romantic weddings. Blue grays, lovely lilacs and ruffles are all around, and they really got my juices flowing for a semi-girly decor scheme.
This sofa is a bit on the masculine side (ie. not too girly for a man’s home) but with a few pretty details it would be the perfect centerpiece to a lovely lounge. I loved how the colors of this rug warmed things up a bit, and really tied into this great scalloped mirror and sweet lotus candle holder. Etsy is a great spot for ruffled pillows like this one, as well as great whimsical artwork to keep things light and girly. Add a simple gourd lamp, and some structured, citrus vases (to tie into the modern lines of the sofa) and you’ve got yourself a sweet but modern ladylike retreat! Enjoy!
Beautiful! I love the rug.
I love this mood board!!!! Great colors, style, everything!!! (I am especially loving the ferris wheel – it’d look so cute in my daughter’s room!)
I love it! Strange, but when I first saw the picture I thought of a London sitting room. I think the ferris wheel reminds me of the London Eye. I love the couch, it looks comfortable but not at the expense of style. Very good! Speaking of weddings, I will have to run some stuff by you for your input! You are so creative!
