Living Room Makeover
I’m going to be doing several posts on the makeover of my living room. I’m going to show you the room and then do a couple posts where I break down some different aspects of the room. I really wanted to take this room from a boring brown sectional to a modern room with elements that included industrial pieces, glamour, and masculine pieces all in the same space. My kids are older now and can take care of a room with some nicer furniture. This was my opportunity to really design a room to my liking. I waited and watched and then shopped for just the right pieces. The room took about 8 months to be entirely complete, but I think it was worth the wait. It is exactly the look I was going for. I know I will enjoy this room for a long time.
I wish I had taken a picture of the room prior to the old furniture being moved out. However, I was not blogging then and the only pictures I have of that room are of us enjoying it on Christmas morning and I know my kids would NOT appreciate me posting those pictures. I hope you can just imagine a brown leather sectional in an L shape and a round glass coffee table being the only furniture in this large space. Please enjoy the pictures of my new living room.
Later in the week, I will be posting more on how to style coffee tables and shelves and how to add pops of bold colors to neutral rooms. I will also share our family portraits and how I incorporated a photo gallery into this room to match the colors that already existed.
Thanks for reading.
Yours Truly,
Jenn

WOW, Jenn- that looks incredible. I would say my favorite part of the room has to be the metal bookshelves.
Thanks Cheryl. Those came toward the end to help pull the room together. I took a real risk with this room, but I like the way it turned out. I’m glad you like it too.
