Living Room Tour

Welcome to my living room!

I think this room reflects who I am, I love the bright and airy feel in it.


This is the living room view from the dining area:

I found the rug on overstock
The wicker box (from IKEA) holds all the downstairs toys


Here is the before (last October)



I have a IKEA ektorp sofa and loveseat.
(we have had leather sofas and microfiber sofas, I have to say I prefer the slip covered sofas)

I have gray and white slip covers. I prefer the white covers.
People ask me what I do when it gets a stain, I just take off the slip cover and throw it in the wash. No big deal. I haven't had to use bleach yet.


Here is the before of the same wall


My "console" table is a bookshelf from IKEA and was only $69.99.
I bought the black IKEA mirrors and painted them white



I love the little birds. I found these at Michael's
I found the tray at a thrift store and just spray painted it white


I found the lit branches at the CRAFT warehouse.
They were from the Christmas collection and I got them for 50% off the regular price :)


Some nick nacks


Here is the front door
I don't like that the entry is right into the living room, but what can I do, its a small house.


I bought this "pleather" ottoman online at Target a few years back, I have been wanting to reupholster it for a while now, but have not found the right fabric. I have brought home samples, but everything seems to clash with the rug, So I will keep looking.


My lamps are from Target
I found a round tray at a thrift store and spray painted it and hot glued ribbon and rhinestones on it.



I sewed my own pillow cases to go over all of my old pillows.



I bought these wicker chairs about 7 years ago when we just got married (I don't remember where)
But I love them, they hold a sentimental value to me.



That concludes our living room tour

I hope you liked it :)
