I wrote a post last week about my love for Anthropologie, and it kind of make me look around my living room and ask myself, “Where’s the fun? Where’s the whimsy? Where’s the personality?”. It just kind of felt a little stiff, a little serious, a little too staged. It was pretty and comfortable, but not totally representative of me. In fact, it’s the only room in the house I haven’t really loved yet. So I thought, and I thunk, and I thinked, and I decided to freshen things up a bit.
I’ll give you the “full reveal” soon, but I will tell you it involved a little of this…
And a dash of this…
And a teaspoon (or gallon) of this…
And my own homemade version of this…
Stay tuned!

Wonderful, I look forward to seeing what you do! I am thinking of ways to bring a bit more color, whimsy and fun into my kitchen, nook and family room as well...it needs just a bit more Personality!
There is no way this room can possibly go wrong with all those elements involved! It's going to look fantastic. Cant wait to see it all together.

can't wait!
Ooo---I like this recipe so far. ;)
Intriguing! Can't wait to see what you are up to!
Looking good! I can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve!
I have to say with your personality this room will be lively and a pleasure to visit. I can't wait to see what mischief you are up to in there!
Love it & cannot wait to see the final reveal! I have been itching to paint my massive TV armoire & bookshelves in the FR recently. I have painted many pieces, but this one is scary! :)
Looking to revamp my living room as well...actually on a tear through the house right now...maybe somethings in the water? Can't wait to see what you come up with!
I'm dying to see! I asolutely love everything you pictured... no surprise since I am a huge Anthro fan as well. :)
can't wait!

I love a good love story from gorgeous and "safe" to fabulous and fun. We all need to make that leap every once in a while. I am sure I will be inspired.
You know its going to be good when even the paint cans are lovely.
Hey, I was just thinking about you when I saw that your favorite anthro chair went on sale today... It's only a measly $1,000 now. Ha ha!
Can't wait to see what you're working on. I'm always inspired by you.
Hi AnNicole!
Ahhh, another Anthropologie junkie, rest assured that you are not alone!
Anytime you can incorporate some Anthro elements into your decor, it's a good thing. Can't wait to see the finished product.
So nice to discover you and your lovely blog. :-)
All the best,
Anne
Ah yes I share your love for anthropologie and can't wait to see what you plan on doing to create more of that feeling in your life.
Can't wait to see how you put it all together.
How truly lovely.
I hope you'll stop by my blog. I am hosting a giveaway for a darling French tote.
Dear AnMichele,
I just found your blog and love it!
Like you, I believe everybody deserve a confortable home and I'm doing mina in a very low budget, since I'm a stay at home mom of 3 kids+2 puppies! I love to be able to be with them, but I love to remodel, reinvent, refinish stuff in a house. i do make a shower curtain myself like Anthro has and feel sooooo good when I finished the project. Anyway, just wonderful to visit here and I'll be happy to follow you and your new adventures with your beautiful Home!
Hugs,
Li :-)
My hubby hates it when I sit and just look around the room. He knows my creative wheels are turning and it will either cost him money or there will be some honey dos coming his way. It sounds like your creativity is in full swing right now. Spring can do that to a girl. I can't wait to see where you go with this. I'm definitely intrigued.

I can't wait to see your reveal. Funny how much your style/colors/patterns are so similar to my taste, so I know I'll love whatever you do!

Can't wait to see!
I should be cleaning my house, but I can't get out of my chair. Just found your blog. Love it and you! I'm a TX girl living in UT. It was fun to read you're a native UT girl. Can't wait to see what you do next!
it needs just a bit more Personality!
