Cozamia Prints

09.13.12

Since moving into my new apartment, finding unique and affordable artwork and prints has been at the top of my to-do decorating list. I came across Nancy Ramirez’s Cozamia on Pinterest and fell in love. Her prints are bold, bright and can be ordered in several different sizes. Even the largest sizes don’t break the bank!

It took me a while to finally settle on two prints — The Dress & Flamingo Mingle — for two different rooms in my house, and I couldn’t be happier with my decisions. The Flamingo print in bedroom adds the perfect pop of color against blue walls and the girl in the dress really makes a statement in our dining room!

I’m thinking how perfect the small prints would be as birthday or Christmas gifts gifts. What about you?

All of her prints are gorgeous and the other 6 shown here were all on my list before narrowing it down. Make sure to check out all her work and let me know which print is your favorite and where you would put it in your house!

The Great Room

06.19.12

Technically, I think great rooms are suppose to encompass several different living areas in one space. But frankly, I don’t care. Over the past few months this room has become great, and definitions be damned.

If you remember the original room, you can tell it’s come quite some way. It started off green. Seriously, green everywhere — the ceiling, the walls, the crown molding, the fireplace…. even the radiators. Not that I don’t like green, but this was just overkill. Plus, the blueish grey I picked is oh-so-soothing!

Slowly, I’ve been piecing together the room to form something relatively cohesive without spending a fortune (I have a thing for saving, it makes me feel accomplished, weird?). And I’m sure I’ll continue to add, delete and generally edit the room until, well, probably until I move again.

I never would have guessed that decorating would bring me such joy, but it sure is fun! Seeing my own style emerge and evolve is quite delightful for my creative brain. Thanks for stopping by (and semi-visiting my place)!
