say whaaat

I've been looking for a tufted velvet couch for my office. Yeah, I have plans. In my searchings I came across this:


I may or may not have made a feral cat sound of desire upon seeing it. I mean, come on.

A more affordable alternative is this pretty, mossy green velvet from Urban Outfitters:



I find this would also be acceptable for my office. Who doesn't need an Antoinette fainting sofa? My tax refund is due any day now so I have somewhat of a dilemma. Put it into savings for France/Switzerland/Italy in October OR give my office a reason for existing/me setting foot inside it besides the obligatory monthly checkbook search.

These are the things that keep me up at night. That and the fact that Jamie Bamber (Lee Adama/Apollo from BSG, aka He of the Beautiful Biceps) is on the UK version of Law & Order. Oh the many things.

I also had the idea that I want to paint the ceiling in my bedroom a darker color to contrast with my white chandelier. Um, cha. I find this also must needs be, but not for awhile since it would require the entire redecorating of a room that I'm just now feeling like is becoming something. (I have my new room all planned out, just so you know.)

And one last pretty thing that will be haunting me for weeks to come is this room (where do you even begin to have arches like that in your house??):

Ok ok, and this room. Why not have one chandelier when you can have four?


Can someone please give me something to design? Please.
