new home inspiration.. art work

If I was to define the style that I would like to call our new home it would possibly be something like "modern rustic" ..lots of nature inspired goods!  With a bit of glam thrown in? lol  Um.. "modern rustic chic?" ha ha ha?  Yes, switching gears a little bit with the decor.. we call this our 'mature house' hee! 

Since I am still photo-less (or too lazy to take pictures of my camera might be more like it), I figured I would do a post dedicated to some artwork that we have ordered.. and are itchin' to hang ..right babe?!! ;)

First up.. 

This gorgeous HUGE antlers poster by Debbie Carlos.  EEeeek!  Can't wait to figure out ummmm where exactly to hang this beauty!  At first we were thinking above the mantle.. but I think it might be too large once framed, then we came across another piece for the mantle ..so I wasn't going to order this one.. but heck, it was to great not to!  Just love everything about it, it sort of sets the tone for the house I think! :)

And how cute are these little fellas!!

I um actually purchased these cuties while we were in the old house still.. but knew they would be perfect, SO CUTE! From BROOKLYNrehab ..this shop is full of things making me want to go back for more!!

This next print is the one we ended up choosing for our mantle.. we put a floor to ceiling rock fireplace into this house before we moved in (can't wait to share a pic.. we love how it turned out!).. and we are thinking this framed in a thick white frame will look so great against the dark stone!  I first came across this via Apartment Therapy (of course)! :)

Photo is a bit stretched.. but if you pop on over the The Wild Unknown, you can zoom in on the gorgeous detail!  I was smitten the instant I saw it.. 

Actually, completely smitten with The Wild Unknown all together!  So much so, that these are also on their way..

Wild Heart and Hanging Prism both from The Wild Unknown ..eeek, can't wait to hang that prism in the window!!

I love the neutrals in these photos.. resisted the urge to go completely neutral through out the whole house (although I was very tempted!), so there will still be aquas, greens and yellow accents in the mix.. although we are purging along the way, I can't bring myself to get rid of everything that I love.. the challenge will be coming up with a mix between this totally rustic neutral look with the crazy colours I had going on before! ;)

I would love to tie it all together with vintage paintings like this..

littlebyrdvintage is another shop that I could likely and willingly take one of everything! hee!  LOVE the look of this shop, the images alone are inspiring!  ..I had some mountain scene paintings similar to this look that used to be hanging in our playroom, they may get used in a main living space this time around!  Looks like littlebyrdvintage only ships to the US.. probably a good thing I suppose! ;)

Also loving (and sort of wish I ordered along with the antlers poster)..

Anyhoo.. what do you think?  Feeling it?  Crazy?  I need more antlers I have decided.. my one and lonely deer antler is going to need some companions around the house (mom.. has Brian found anymore out in the field?? lol) ..I blame the house for all this, it just screams for this vibe!! :)  Yes.. totally the house's fault. ;)

Later friends!
