Greens, Blues, Yellows...

Yesterday was a busy Monday but such a great one. The week started off very well. How about for you? I had to teach the BYW class (we're having so much fun!) and then needed to sketch lots of floor plans for a project I'm working on.

In addition, I was quite busy organizing work things, then I went out for an hour in the forest to just clear my mind and work out which was a real treat. I'm in the process of redesigning the decor8 template and working with a graphic designer on a new logo (and tagline) plus I'm putting a proposal together for my next book to give to my literary agent in October.

On top of that, I'm going to Morocco in a month for a teaching trip and need to plan out my lessons and handouts -- and then in early November I'll be in Istanbul for a week. I can't wait to see Turkey! My dear friend will take me to the hidden gems there so that I can share some shopping tips with you upon my return.

I also move in a few weeks -- we went into our new place today to measure the kitchen and bathroom, I drew a floor plan for each, and now I have to get started on the design of it. I counted how many lights we need to install, 15! That breaks down to 11 pendants, 2 sconces and 2 bathroom lights. Oh my! Wish me luck on that, I've never had to purchase so many lights in my life in one shot.

This busyness is fun though, but sometimes I wonder how I'm not wearing socks that don't match and how I end up leaving the house with matching earrings on because my brain is all over the place!

I hope you are doing well! In this post I've placed some inspiration taken from my Flickr group called Interior Styling. Members are invited to post edited and styled rooms and corners of rooms, it's a very sweet group and a nice place to take a break during the week to flip through all of the images submitted there. I hope that you'll bookmark it, or join, and visit regularly.

I see a theme above -- lots of greens, blues, yellows... so soothing and cozy.
