I had a tough decision to make last night …

 

words …

 

or pictures?

 

And would it be okay to post the pictures without the words?

 

The whole photographing and editing pictures of my navy and white living room remodel took much longer than I antcipated …

 

Which led to an internal debate of whether I should just post the pictures with a “here it finally is …”

 

Or wait and compose words to go with the pictures …

 

You know, like telling you about how the wall color is Sherwin Williams Naval …

 

 

And how the amazing ceiling fan came from Lamps Plus …

 

 

Along with the amazing mirror; from Lamps Plus too  …

 

 

I could also tell you how the rug started it all …

 

 

Or how I’m in love with my table that I painted with navy and white stripes …

 

 

Or the fabrics …

 

don’t get me started on the fabrics …

 

 

*Sigh*

 

I even had big plans to give you the whole budget breakdown …
