Rocky Mountain: HI COLORADO!

Get it? Is this pun not so deliciously perfect? (Thanks John Denver, RIP). I feel that I may be strange for finding such great satisfaction in it. It is the little things...

Well... Burley and I have made a big decision. We are packing up our little bugalow in Atlanta and moving out west! Denver, CO here we come.

We have only been in this home for about a year, so the decision is so very bitter sweet. However, we don't have any little rascals yet (besides ol' Mace Face) and we have very little commitments... so we decided we needed to bite the bullet and head on a new adventure, while we can.

It has my THRIFTARY brain spinning. What will our new home look like? What amazing flea markets/thrift stores will I find? I CAN'T WAIT TO DECORATE!

Let's just take a moment to enjoy the organic satisfaction of a blank domestic canvas....

Ah...

OK - well now that the big news is announced... I will let you in on some amazing projects I hope to incorporate in our new home.

I am obsessed with this amazing home office area created by Vintage Revivals. Seriously... these mirrors? and this desk? I could eat it up. Check the links out to see the tutorials!

This headboard? Seriously.... It is like the blogging world today said "Let's throw a pic out there and see if the perefect person obsessed with this headboard can find it"... and then i found it. You can see the tutorial here, and if you have a few days time & the desire to develop a HUGE case of the "wants"... check out the rest of the House*Tweaking site.

I am in love with wall-paper idea (behind the mason jars)... I found this while snooping around poppytalk. I would love to use this inspiration in the our new kitchen, in our hutch, or in some other piece of awesome furniture that I don't own yet!

This AMAZING light fixture idea may be the first project at our new home. I stole a piece of drift wood from my sister (it looks a lot like this branch) over Christmas.... She let me! I have been dying to find the perfect use for it.... and I did.

Well that is about it for this ol' dreamer. Back to the reality of packing 3BR/2BA in one month and then paying to haul it across the country.

Wait... where did my romantic adventure just go?
