Living Room

Ok, y’all! I’m rolling out some house pics. I’m starting with our living room because I spend most of my time there and was therefore forced to put it together first… and it’s nowhere near finished or close to what I hope it to look like, but I’m so excited that I just have to share what I’ve done so far with you.

Before:

After:

I love my wingback chair… it just barely fits in that corner, but I’m sticking with it. This chair was my very first sewing DIY project… *sigh*. Now it needs a little fixing up (the move and wear and tear have done a number), but I’m so darn proud of it.

Paint color: Silver Gray – Benjamin Moore

Not the best quality photos, I was limited to my cell camera! I’ll update with better ones later!

Rug is new from Target!

I LOVE WAINSCOTTING.

That chest of drawers actually was a freebee from a friend in a frat in college – his (awesome) mom had found it at a yardsale… and he didn’t want to take it home! Score! Solid wood, weighs a hundred pounds, needs a little refinishing, makes my heart melt.

 

This peninsula in the kitchen looks over the living room, with breakfast bar. Currently being used as our dining room table….: )

More to come when I make additional improvements. I really want to put a picture shelf up on one wall, maybe on either side of the small window? What do you think? I want to make some nice bright pillow covers too for a pop of color.  I also have my bedroom to show you …. but it has a ways to go first!

Thank you all for stopping by! You all inspire me and teach me everyday!
Cheers!
