Sunshine After the Rain

So, back in high school, when I picked my boyband horse, I picked 98 Degrees.
No, not N*Sync.
Not Backstreet Boys.

98 Degrees.

Sadly,  they fell into oblivion.
But, hey, Nick Lachey, he's still famous, right?

Also, they left me with a plethora of earworms that bring me back to having a brand new driver's license, a car with no air conditioning, a part time job, a little bit of spending money, friends who were 18 and could buy me lotto scratchers, and lots of hot tub parties looking for shooting stars.
Being 16 was awesome.

But, I digress.

That wasn't really where I was going with this post.

Little by little, I'm adding a little color back into my black and gray bedroom decor.
A little bit of yellow.
Just a smidge.
Because, I only do yellow in moderation.

A little sunshine in amidst the rainy grays.

And Etsy has been helping me jump back on the yellow train.

I can't get this print from Yellow Heart Art out of my brain.
I think it's the first one I'll be getting.



Typographical prints always catch my eye.
And I want my house saturated in scripture.
This one  From Fancy That Design House will definitely be next.
Definitely.
(ps thanks Katy for the rec!)



And you know those deep yellow flowers that are tiny.
Like a daisy.
But not.
I LOVE THEM.
Apparently they are called Billy Buttons?
How cute is that!
I love how simple they are.
They help me like yellow.
So does this print by Retro Menagerie.



And this one by Eve Sand.
This is just dreamy.
I would nap very well with this floating on my wall.



My super hilarious, amazing friend Denise and her husband opened a shop, Kiss the Sky, making the most amazing canvas prints.
I saw this.
It's a must have.
Super must.
Super saving up.
ASAP.



And, of course, these pillows from Classic By Nature wouldn't hurt either.
Even though I already have some awesome ones I love.
These just scream whisper FABULOUS.

  3. Ewww 98 degrees. I lurved the BSB and still do. (Even though my fave is not in the BSB anymore.) Coincidentally, my fave NKOTB boy is no longer in that band anymore. Weird?

    Now that you've got that song in my head, I will try to replace it with something much, much better like "Quit Playing Games with My Heart" or my personal favorite "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)".

  5. "give me just one night! uuuuunnaaa nooocheee!" Now that will be stuck in my head ALL. DAY. LONG. I loved 98 degrees, but I had Nick Carter tunnel vision in the worst possible way.

    Loving the yellow. I just bought yellow & white striped sheets. I'm sleeping on sunshine!

  7. I am totally loving yellow.
    I don't know when I started on the yellow kick, but I know it's been showing up in my clothes more, my iphone case, my purse, but I just can't help myself. It's so happy.
    Much like your posts.
    :)
