The New Space!

So I'm still not fully moved in yet - most of the furniture I ordered has arrived, the rest will be arriving in the coming days but I have to paint the walls before I move anything in anyway. It's currently in a state of emptiness with tons of boxes, some half opened, some not even opened yet like a hurricane whipped through. Here's a peek at the before - furniture belonged to the previous owner which has long since been moved out of here already.

I've dreamed of a loft ever since high school and it's here! I love the industrial feel, the high ceilings, the window, everything! The idea of the lime accent wall is pretty cool, but I'm not a fan of the graphic green squares on the opposite wall. So far, I've decided that I'm going to keep my space neutral in tone, and then add colour through accents like pillows, tabletop knick knacks etc

Searching for inspiration, I stumbled upon Decor Pad and the site has been amazing! You can search for inspiration by the type of room, paint color - I've bookmarked a ton of photos and will share a couple of my favourites with you =)

From my favs, you can probably see where I'm going with this space. The fresh green will definitely stay some way or another. I want it to be modern yet classic and have clean lines while incorporating some organic aspects - it's all about the balance in my world. I need a artful and interesting way to display my jewelry too - perhaps in some vintage picture frames or something? If you have any cool ideas, post a comment - I'd love to hear them!!

Painting begins tomorrow!
