I am building my first home! It is so exciting but so scary, I know I will make mistakes and do things that I may not love so I have just decided to embrace it. Because it is our first home I don’t have any experience building and therefore I am asking everyone for advice. If you have any, feel free to share cause I need all that I can get.

In making decisions, I of course turn to pinterest and then I am overwhelmed! Haha but I have managed to start sorting things into color palettes and styles that I would like to use. You will be seeing a bunch from me in the next few months. I loved this particular one because it is deep and moody but very clean and totally me. I have noticed that contrast is an important point in decor. Everything has been white for so long, and that is what I love, but the dark contrasting accent walls and decor are making their way back into interior design. I am going to do a charcoal accent wall amongst my white walls to bring some simple drama to our home.

I can’t help but notice two colors standing out so much this season, black and yellow. I used to think people looked like bumble bees when they mixed the colors but times have changed and now I love the two. Mustard with charcoal gray or black looks amazing. I am especially loving it in home decor items like pillows, throws and accessories, not to mention how stinkin cute those Docs are in yellow!
