here comes color!

i am dying for some color around here.  back in our lovely denver house, i was really into earth tones and neutrals.  now that we are in our funky boston loft, i am really dying for a shot of color.  a few shots of color.  and an open space with old, dark hardwood flooring and lots of exposed brick are just is just the place to do it.  i don't know if it's the fact that we are in the loft for just a year so i don't have to commit to a style forever, or if my taste is just evolving.

i've always really been into colors and prefer a more eclectic look than something super put-together [i'm never 'put-together' a second in my life, so why should my home be?].  so i am hoping that the black and white photography we brought along with us from denver will go well with some new color in the loft! 

we are in the market for new nightstands, a new bookshelf and a new couch [possibly a new chair/loveseat to go with it].  here are a few of my new favorite and colorful finds:

pair of arrow tables, furbish, $479

orange steel night stand, target, $63

marketplace woven table, urban, $98
flourish side table, urban, $49
my fave! brimfield bookcase, urban, $79
aspelund side table, ikea, $40 [would be re-painted]

moroccan side table, one king's lane, $199

vintage orange bamboo side tables, the colonies, £200
right now it's too much fun fantasy online shopping to make any decisions or purchases.  i'll just have to keep looking until i find just the right thing... suggestions are welcome!

til next time...
