Since I moved into my new apartment I’ve been busy getting moving all my furniture in and getting organized. After two months, I am still not finished with moving in and getting all my furniture into the apartment. I have a huge furniture dilemma. I have a case of OCD when it comes to matching things. The same goes for my furniture.

I have a huge white bed frame. I have orange bedsheets, pillows, blankets, etc. Black furniture is out of the question because I would not want to sleep in Halloween all year long. My night stand is white, my bookshelf is white…but my desk is.. I don’t know. I have not bought a desk. I want an oak desk but that wouldn’t match. So I have to get a white desk. But I don’t want it all white, white, white! What to do? The fact of non-matching furniture irks me. My OCD will kick in all night long and I will get no sleep at all.

I want to go for an orange, oak, white themed room. But it’s so hard for me to wrap that idea around my head. I’m going crazy looking at room decor magazine and show rooms to see if anyone else has done this and if it looks good. I look at my favorite Sex & The City apartment and nothing matches – but I love it. Should I just go with the flow and see how it ends up being? Whay should I do?! I feel like I have to stick to an all white room but I want some oak in there – but what shade of oak, maple or whatever should I get? Hmmm. I have a headache.
