For those of you hoping I was going to show off a new hair cut, I am sorry to disappoint. I try not to make many big decisions while pregnant (like cutting my hair) because I almost always regret them. I do however love to move furniture around.
December is Laura’s last monthly round up of the year and she is finishing up with “The Living Room.” Since we had to move furniture to put up our Christmas tree I thought this would be the perfect time to try out a new look.
Before December our living room looked like this.
I really liked this set up, except for the fact that the bookcase was always a mess. Since this is the first room you see when you walk in my house I don’t like people to see a mess!
We moved things around for the tree and it looked like this.
Now the tree is gone and it looks like this.
I like this set up because it brings another chair into the room and we never have enough seats. What I don’t like about this arrangement is that my windows look bare!
If I am going to keep it this way I think I need the following:
- Big picture or mirror over the piano.
- Small table between the two khaki chairs.
- A little something for the windows.
- Some type of storage for a few games or toys for the kids.
We moved the tall bookcase to the stairwell and I really like it there so it is not coming back down. Plus it is a big pain to move all those books. The piano can be moved because it is getting fixed next month and they have to take it to the shop to fix it, but I like it on that wall.
I am not an interior decorator, my style is something like late yard sale/ hand-me-down. I would love any opinions you have to help me finish off this room!
