At long, long last, I got the spool chairs we bought with the house reupholstered! My favorite parts, though, are the throw pillows. I’ve been in love with this fabric forever, and finally have the perfect room to use it in…

There is probably no piece of furniture I dislike more than coffee tables. Now I’m in the market for TWO coffee tables – one for our TV room, one for our living room, and I am STRUGGLING. Do you ever feel like you’ve overshopped for an item? Like you’ve compared so many different options they’ve all started to blend and you’re not sure what you want at all any more? That’s the rabbit hole I’ve been dealing with as my desire for something pretty conflicts with my need for something practical, and nothing quite seems to physically fit in my rooms with their challenging measurements. Here are a few of my issues, my inspiration, and some things I actually like!
Remember Monday, when I whined about how my living room is where all the furniture I don’t know what to do with has ended up, and how it’s crazy I haven’t done anything with this room yet? Well, your (two days) of patience has paid off, because here are some of my ideas of how to address the many issues in this room and make the room look cozy and … good.
Right now, our living room (which we call our ‘keeping room,’ since originally that’s what it was – the combined kitchen and living area of the colonial house with its giant fireplace) is a mish-mosh of things we’ve bought, furniture that we purchased with the house, hand-me-downs and items from our old apartment. Altogether, it’s a bit of a mess! Now, I’m trying to decide on what to keep, what to get rid of, what to purchase and what colors to incorporate.
