Hello! Today’s the day for me to share some photos of our Living Room. I made the curtains and pillow covers. Whew! What an amount of work! Our loveseat is from the Corona collection at Macy’s. We bought the couch off of craigslist but first we went to our local Macy’s Furniture to test ‘er out. Who doesn’t love a good deal? And our slipper chairs are from Target. They’re super comfy and I’m really happy with them. The fabric that I used for the curtains and pillows is Joel Dewberry’s Ginseng collection and I bought it off of Etsy for no more than $7 a yard. Some of it was only $5 a yard. Boo ya! (Many thanks to our interior design friend, Lisa Jensen, for the consults).
I’m really digging the new lay-out. It makes the living room feel so much more spacious but keeps it cozy and comfortable at the same time.
I wanted something interesting on these pillows without making them too busy because we’re in such a small space. I gathered a 4-inch strip to half it’s size and added that in. I think it works perfectly!
And Holly, the girl that gags when eating avocado. Seriously. She does not like avocado.
Do you like our re-designed living room as much as I do?
