Decorating the Casa

So you all know that we just bought a new house. I love decorating but I'm really having a hard time deciding what I want to do in the end. I have so many different ideas, I wish I had 5 houses to do them in. When we bought the house then just painted all the rooms inside. Problem is they used the same light tan color in all the rooms.  I mean it's a nice color but to me it feels like an apartment where you don't want to paint the walls because you'll have to repaint them white when you leave.

Now I would paint every room a different color and work off of that but my husband loves the color and wants to keep it. Let's just say that's not going to happen lol I've already changed our master room. I did a grey (not too dark) on the walls. We have a built in on one wall that was a dark brown. I painted the trim and built in all white. I did black touches like with the bed, night stands and pictures frames. I love how our room turned out and for being a first time painter I gave myself a pat on the back ;) Once I have everything put a way I'll take a pic of the room. For my daughters room I tried to keep it the same so that the transition would be easy. So I kept it a light purple. Our living room, dining room and kitchen connect. So I'm keeping that the tan color and my hallways that color too. For the living room and dining room were doing like a dark browns with touches of light gold and a deep teal. It's sort of hard to explain but once again when I have it all done I will post up pictures.

My guest bedroom, entry way and my daughters/guest bathroom I have no idea how I want to decorated it. So of course I go to trusty pinterest to get some ideas. Let me know what you think and if there is any one out there reading this tell me some of your ideas.


For the entry way I was thinking of these ideas:

I love signs so this would be a nice way to add the ones I have


I have a piece of furniture just like this that I want to paint but I want to do a deep teal in chalk paint

Have a piece like this too but not sure what color I want to paint it. Maybe a Kelly green??

I'm loving this color combo for the guest room


I really like this for the extra bath it's not too much

I hope everyone has a great weekend!!
