Decorating Update: Living Room
After reading a recent post by our super-talented online designer, Abby, I realized I never posted proper "After" shots of the living room space she helped us transform. Abby was a delight to work with and I'd highly recommend her if you're looking for a little help in updating a space in your home. Don't take my word for it, her work speaks for itself.
Just as a little refresher and because everyone loves a good "Before" and "After," here is what our living room looked like when we first moved in.
Before:
With our old furniture:
Abby's Mood Board:
After:
We love our new space. I especially love all the color, while still maintaining some of the neutrals. I was scared of the grasscloth but I'm thrilled with the way it looks. The sectional is Ikea and if you ever had any reservations about their products, I can tell you it's a great value for the money. It's very comfortable and the slipcovers are washable! The custom pillows (all from Etsy) really add that color punch that I was looking for and gave me the jumping off point for the bookshelves.
I hope you've enjoyed the tour of my living room!
It looks so good! I love all the pillows and pops of color!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Love the green curtains and the pillows! And, thanks for helping me find Abby!
ReplyDeleteDanielle, I LOVE it!!!!! It looks like something out of a magazine. F'real!!! I'm in love with grasscloth and when we do our bedroom I plan on covering the walls in it! Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Love the finished product! I think IKEA brings to mind "cheap" furniture to some, but we've had great luck with several pieces from there, and to have washable slipcovers on a family room couch, that's just a great thing!
ReplyDeleteThis looks FANTASTIC! WOW! I have soooo many questions! I want to know where you got so many of your accessories :) All of this really brightened your room tremendously. I love it!!!
