i have been feeling uninspired. not like myself. i haven't had the energy or desire even, to decorate our apartment since we moved in december, almost 5 months ago now.
the only room i've really touched is our bedroom- our only real haven from the world.
but i feel ready now. this is a new chapter.
i've settled on a print that will inspire the feel of the living room. the artist is sam toft. we have two of his prints in our bedroom & i really love them. his characters are endearing to me: doris, ernest, horace & stripes. they are a plump, sweet family. so when i found this print, i knew it was perfect.
it was settled when i discovered the title: "home from home." (& of course zane's seal of approval settled the matter as well).
i think "home from home" captures how we feel about florida nicely.
& it quite possibly could be the closest i ever come to having a retro-esque trailer in my life. zane is not fond of them in the physical form. he'd rather have a mick jagger type rockstar motorhome when it comes to recreational vehicles.
I like that. Home from home. Sounds perfect for you.Glad you're feelin some inspiration again. Gives me hope that someday it will hit me too.
ReplyDeleteI like that artist too. Someone around here had several of his prints, seems like I remember one of the two characters walking with their backs to you and one is holding an umbrella.
ReplyDeleteNot only are the characters interesting, but I love the colors and textures.
YES!!! that is one of the ones we have above our bed!!! of course i was drawn to the umbrellas... & the colors are very nice, i agree=) colorful but not in your face. "creamy" is coming to mind.
