I am now cohabitating with my long-time boyfriend Ryan, and with a new house comes the desire to gussy the entire place up to look like a magazine spread {see our bedroom inspiration here}. Now for those of you who don't know me I have always had a rather feminine sensibility, so trying to decorate with a man's perspective in the mix can be a challenge. I am quite lucky in the fact that Ryan trusts my judgement and pretty much gives me free rein to design the house how I choose fit, but a sugary sweet room like these? That could be pushing it. So instead of pinks, florals, and pastels all over the walls I have decided to instead inject pops of color into our house like this rug. Sweet indeed!
