A blissful space--seeking your input!

My current favorite inspiration: Image from Decorpad

We have decided to stay in our little beach place for another year, and my design dreams are coming fast and furious... and recommendations for fun finds? I need a new dining set, (very small for the beach apartment!), curtains, a platform bed, a desk, just fun beachy apartment stuff... would love to hear your ideas! :)

Since it is such a tiny space, storage is constantly a challenge.... oh, how cliche. In my opinion, we really just need the very basics here: beach gear and work/school stuff, our photos and books, our recharge/entertain space, and basic stuff to whip up some yummy meals. You would not believe how tiny our kitchen is... and so much less to clean, I say... ;)

I like simple and peaceful yet energizing; does this exist? We get sand on the floor... I come in here from the beach, and also get ready to go and be professional from here... quite the multi-purpose living space! And well, beyond all the functionalities, good homes just shelter our souls, don't they? I suppose that is what drives a lot of my (our?) fascination with decoration/organization and where we live... it is our shelter on so many levels, and we always want to improve that shelter and our lives.

Growing up, Mr. Wonderful and I were both furniture rearrangers...oh the possibilities!

Look forward to your advice...
