in the future everything will be opposite

I have an essay due on Wednesday and a final on Thursday-Friday sooooo I'm spending two three hours putting up pictures of things I want in My Future Apartment. We will assume that I have a hack that gives me unlimited monies.

First, this is my DREAM BED.

I love green and I love lamps and this is pretty. (Sidenote: I approve of the dinosaur but not of the shoes.)

Damn straight. I can't find a good picture of one you might be able to buy, but 's cool b/c I want to try making one out of old CDs.

K I don't care that this is not technically a pillow but a natural hot water bottle, I'm going to use it as a pillow b/c it is fing cute.

Cardboard Safari! There's also a rhino and moose design. I can't decide which one I actually want.

It is a lamp in the shape of a cat. Loves it, would look at again.

Oh godddd so fucking pretty. I am so in love. *_______* They are "melamine" (like I know wtf that is D:), dishwasher safe, microwave unsafe, which I like b/c it will maybe stop me from eating shitty microwave food. B/c if I have these plates I will never stop using them.

I'm not sure if this is exactly my style, but it is cool and pritty pritty. Honeycomb lampshade! It folds open and you clip it together. Here is the link for both the lamp and the "melamine" plates if you are super-interested.

I enjoy mustaches. My favorite is girls with glorious fake mustaches but that doesn't really have a whole lot to do with this entry. Except for how I really like my Sarah icon.

I like the thought of having a set of one of these things b/c I am sort of pretentious and I like black and white shit. Bicycle cups! I can drink soy malk out of them while having a light lunch of some sort of healthy sammich!

I really want a cuckoo clock too (though it doesn't necessarily have to make noise). I want a small modern looking one, but not one that's all one bright color (like this) b/c that makes it look too cheap and plastic. I can't find anything that fits what I'm looking for. I would be okay with an old-school clock and all, only I don't like how formal/kitschy (that combo works in my brain) and woodsy some of them look. I feel like I'd have to be somewhat ~ironic~ with an old-school cuckoo clock. Well whatever have two pictures of cuckoo clocks I like (except I don't think the origami one actually works. I'm sure/I really fucking hope someone can make it happen though):

You need to buy at least 5 of these and cluster them all over the place. C'est chouette, les bitches.

I usually don't get the deal with monkeys or fish, but I really like these vinyl wall graphic things. I also like the chandeliers except...

3-D chandelier. It pains me deeply that it's from Urban Outfitters. So is the fox pillow, as a matter of fact. Though I don't particularly want to, I can live without them. Fuck you, Urban Outfitters.

  More wall graphic things. Yeah I don't want to have to worry about wallpapers and shit.

Hammocks hammicks hammixxxxxx. According to ehammocksusa.com, this barless sprang-woven Nicaraguan hammock (also called a "Nicamaka") is the most comfortable, most useful, safest, prettiest, and the bestest ever of all the hammocks in the land. A more modern but also a more nervous-making hammock:

I think these are like 70s and cheesy or something? I don't care, I want one.

I have a few more wall display and lamp pix but I'm too lazy to keep this going. FUTURE APARTMENT IS GORGE~OUS! *____*

some home decor-ish places I hella lurk around:
[community profile] saucydwellings       
[community profile] ourbedrooms       (these two have tons of other similar affiliates, etc)
Modish (general crafty-thing blog)
Oh My That's Awesome (general awesome-thing blog)

These links are overwhelming tbh. Every time I visit any of those places I cook in a lobster stew of my own jealousy. Why can I not be rich?? Everything is so fucking beautiful and pretty and mloooorrrrrghhhh I WANTS.

I also just use google images. Oh yeah.

Parting note, I want to find a beautiful shower curtain and some life-affirming rugs bbs. I want a plain rice paper sphere lantern thing too b/c it reminds me of our old LA apartment and it's all squishy familiar. And I want a set of those Russian matryoshka dolls. Not any set in particular, I just want one. When you were little didn't you always want one? I wanted one. And I want one still. Want want want.
