Chevron. Chevron. Chevron.

Ok.  I've been keeping a secret from you all.  Kind of a big one.

We are CLOSING ON OUR LAKE HOUSE in one week.  Yes, one week from today. August 29th.


I know I told you awhile back that we were looking and that we fell in love with this one....but I know that SO many things can go wrong, so didn't want to spill the beans until things were set in stone.

August 29th.  We'll have keys and a beer in hand and sitting on our new patio enjoying this view....

Needless to say, I have fallen back in love with Pinterest. 
So what better bandwagon to jump on today....



Since our little living room is the heart of the house, i've been trying to decide what prints & colors will make this space really come alive.  And by alive I mean, cottagy--funky--trendy--cozy--& most of all, fun.

Aka:  Chevron.







I'm just loving these rustic hues of Chevron....LOVING THEM. 

I'm thinking they will look super charming complimented with our dark red brick fireplace. 

Eeeekk.

Can't wait.

Have you all caught the Chevron bug as well??

First of all - yay for closing on your house soon ! Hopefully it won't feel like the longest week ever for you.

I love love neutral furniture with Chevron accessories !!
I'm about to re-do the master bath with Chevron & neutrals.
Have fun decorating- it's always fun to have a new/ bare space to redo! :)

Congratulation girl, that's SO exciting! Sitting by the lake with a cold drink in hand sounds AMAZING - and you'll have that at your HOUSE! So cool. I love chevron details, and that blue chair at the bottom is gorgeous.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

And I am loving Chevron with the look you're going for. It updates a more traditional style to be more fun without being too trendy. LOVE!

I'm definitely chevron obsessed as well! I have two chevron rugs in my kitchen that I found at TJ Maxx for super cheap - definitely check there!

You're so lucky to have this house. Simply looking at the lake can help you to relax after a long day of work. Your realtor must have exerted so much effort in looking for an awesome place for you. I've seen the renovations that you've done in the interiors, and I can definitely say that you've justified the space provided for your Chevrons. :)
