I think I will start painting soon
As ideas of how I'm going to decorate my living room poured into my mind and I've decided on a blue and orange color scheme, I thought about what I would paint on the blank canvases I bought the other day, to hang up on my walls. The first thing that came to mind that would fit that color scheme, besides the lame thoughts of tropical flowers, was goldfish. I told this idea to a friend and she said koi would be cool and that is a much better idea. I got a little more creative and decided it would be a 3 or 4 canvas painting of a koi pond with maybe the paw of a little kitty dipping her paw in, spread out on one of my walls. Then I thought of that sculpter I mentioned in a previous journal ([link]) and I thought I might comission her to make 1 or 2 koi fish scultures for the coffee table when I get the chance.
I am very excited

So yeah those are my ideas for the living room. It'll be simple but also cool and energetic.

As for the other rooms... well I'm not sure I'm going to get too crazy with those but I'm going to try for a green and white with dark wood in our bedroom. That's it. I don't really care about the rest of the house. I was thinking about planting a garden in our tiny backyard. I already have some hanging flower pots that I bought today. Some patio furniture would be nice and we're definitely getting a decent grill.

I bought some more oil paint colors for my koi pond idea and some charcoal pencils to sketch it out. I forgot to buy more canvases though. Oh well.
