{Balcony Inspiration: My Makeover}

Morning loves!! So.....here are the pics of my apartment balcony makeover. I apologize for taking so long to post the pictures, but I've been waiting on a few pillows that I ordered from Furbish. Unfortunately, they still haven't arrived - but I decided to go ahead to show off the space now and then will update the pics once the pillows come in. So without further ado - check em' out!!!

{As you know I love the black and white stripes. I purchased the fabric on ebay and made the pillows myself. The outdoor rug is exactly what I was looking for and found it on Craigslist for $15 - you can't beat that!! I added the teal as a pop of color and once my pillows come in I will be adding a burnt reddish-orange to the space for another splash of color. The stainless circle sculpture I purchased at an art festival here in Raleigh a few years ago - I love how it adds a modern element to the space. Finally my ferns are still alive - they are definitely high maintenance and I can't believe I haven't killed them yet - yeah me!!!}

Rattan seating
{Rotan cushions from IKEA for a little extra seating}

{I just love candles! You should see the space all lit up at night - very romantic and cozy}

Queen B
{What's a queen without her crown?}

lovely flower
{I love the detail captured of this lovely flower}

Mr
{Don't you love my Mr. Gnome? I purchased him at Target -green pants, red hat, and all - and then spray painted him teal to match the decor. I just love how he turned out - definitely adds that touch of whimsy I was looking for}

So....real talk here. Comment below and let me know what you think!!! Honestly, your opinion matters. :-) Final Signature
