Shopping for furniture!
Lee & I are going to NJ tomorrow to shop for furniture. I wish I could say that this is going to be a fun task to do together, but it’s more a task about me compromising.
We have similiar and different taste in style, design and fashion. We both love the 40’s. Lee also likes the country, relaxed feel. I am a traditionalist, but for this home I want a different feel. Although I admire the modern style in other people’s homes and in magazines/catalogs, I don’t want to be around it all the time. It’s cold and I favorite a more snuggly style. I want big pillows, but I always want a well together look.
One of the biggest problems I have is that I want to stay away from my Mom’s style. There’s nothing wrong with her style of course, but I want my home to have Lee and my taste. So it’s a task in compromise for me. Lee knows me and I don’t think he’ll go too country on me.
*This has got to be one of the most sweet & exciting parts of life. Thank you, God.* I’ll post pics soon.
Hugs,
marlene
