Inspiration 7.9

Ok, kids, confession time. Sometimes...when I get really bored, I mean really bored, I start making lists of things I want-- 50-item long lists. So occasionally, when I'm cleaning, I'll find pieces of paper with numbered lists that terrify me. A recent example:

Want:

• Jorts (but the cool Parisian ones, I swear they exist)
• Stairs
• A straw hat
• Shiny pans
• Canning jars (I'm laughing while typing this one out. Like THAT will ever happen)
• A sectional sofa
• Loose, silky button up
• Brown K-Jacques (done!)
• Shutters

Ok, so you get the point. Anyways, this self indulgent rambling was brought on by the shutters in the photo above, where I think how nice it would be to wake up in the country with an early morning breeze wafting in, or closing the shutters at night during a storm.

Of course, I think the room would be a bit too spare in real life, even for "daydream me" who never accumulates clutter, but the composition is certainly pretty to look at.

Image discovered on Head Over Heels, a great blog after my own heart. Oh, and another thing I want desperately -- to incorporate written sentiments into my home. Another fave from the site:

Forget want, I need this floor, and I'll take the trough sink too.
