sexy spa space...for tiff and donnie

ok so for her sexy...spa...space we are starting with tiffany's dream bed...and i do have to say i think i could have some NICE dreams in this bed!!! it's BEAUTIFUL like the one HERE
we don't want that LOVELY bed to BLEND into the walls...so we're gonna give those walls a nice SPA-like blue like maybe...Sherwin Williams's Blue Sky???
but we're keepin' the trim clean with a nice creamy white like Sherwin William's Antique White...
i wanna keep the clean lines that tiffany and donnie love so much so i'm going with this white comforter with some straight pleats sewn in and the best part...its from WALLY WORLD...
loving this lil throw to add some softness to all these lines...like this one from TARGET.com i just wanna cuddle up in it!!!

and whacha think about this awesome rug to tie it all together??!! LOVE IT...
a lamp like THIS or THIS on each side of the bed...i think i would do one of each! you and donnie can fight that one out!!! :)

hang one of THESE funky chunky mirrors...

and flank it with some pics of those beautiful babies!!! :)

also...after looking at the pics of the room...i think we can work in a little reading/sitting area??? so this is what i came up with for the area opposite the bed...
love the CHAISE...can we say story time with mommy!!!!
 
with this awesome sheepskin underneath

what about THIS ADORABLE floor lamp??? cause i mean what is a reading nook without a lamp? :)  
what about these killer ledges for $10?!!!!???!!! why not right! good for displaying pictures or the occasional book! (P.S.  AnaWhite blogged the how to HERE)
i love it!!! but i guess i'm kinda biased...whadda YOU think?

Jade's retro cool kitchen and dining room

 ok...so here we go again...here is the inspiration that jade gave me for her retro - funky - cool kitchen LOVE this cute lil rug!!!
i LOVE the color combo in the inspiration...and she already has multicolored Fiestaware dishes in her kitchen...like these
i really like the brown tones in the rug...so i was thinking a nice oatmeal colored cabinet with an espresso glaze to tie them in and go with the "retro" kinda feel...like the finish on these...if you are a beginner, ana white does a great tutorial on glazing the CHEAP way HERE

but i'm thinkin' a more modern hardware like this...from LOWES.com

 
what about a chalkboard backsplash??? like this one??? i'm loving the look...and you could just write your shopping list...recipe...WHATEVER on there!!! cheap AND easy!!! AND...you can make it whatever color you want by using THIS cool tutorial...i'm thinking...chocolate BROWN...or...LIME green???

 ok so the kitchen that we are redecorating was built about 75 years ago...its a little...vintage ;) some of the cabinet doors are just really plain...and some of them look a little newer and more detailed...SOOOO....i decided that we should just take of the...umm...challenged doors and replace them with inexpensive burlap curtains...what do you think?
something that looks kinda like this...(tutorial HERE)

ok i know we talked about navy chairs jade...but i LOVED the look of these turquoise ones!!! (loving the "chandelier" in this pic too!!) you could hang glass baby food jars, with tea lights in them, for a less seasonal look... :)
i think a great rug like THIS brown zebra print would add a contemporary flair to this country chic dining area
 
sooo....whadda ya think????? :)
