Hey y'all! I decided to finally give you all a tour of our living room. We have lived in our house for about a year and a half. The living is the room that got most of my attention when I first started decorating our house.
When we bought our house, the living room looked like this
Once we signed the papers for our house, we began couch shopping. I already had my eye on one and we ended up purchasing it. Our sectional is what inspired the decor of the living room and kitchen.
For about a year I didn't want to hang anything on the walls until I was certain of the placement. I finally decided to take the plunge and create a gallery wall of my husband and I.
I must admit after I completed the gallery wall, I was obsessed with it. Just ask Ant. I would gaze upon its beauty and compliment myself in a job well done. This happened like everyday for a few months. Now it's just every once in awhile.
Personally, these are my two favorite pictures from the gallery
Throughout the house we have these niche type things and they are hard to decorate. Ours has gone through different layouts, I finally came up with this
I don't hate it but I don't love it either. I feel like the left side still needs more tweeking, I just don't know what though.
I have a dream. A dream of where I mount the TV above the fire place.
The dream includes beautiful storage for all of our DVDs because I'm not liking the exposedness (is that a word?) of all of them.
For now, I think the living room is complete. There are more things I would like to eventually get done in there like create a mantel, mount the TV, get a new table and floor lamp, install tile throughout and remove the popcorn ceiling. You know, just simple stuff like that. But for now, it's complete and I'm content with it.
Now let's end the tour with a before and after
