I am in desparate need of a game-plan to jazz up our living room. I find our main living and gathering space to be a little boring and in need of some color and visual interest.
Fortunately we have a solid foundation to start with including updated furniture, brand new windows, a solid wood floor and a wall color that will work with any color scheme! Below are my initial thoughts for color and my "to do" list.
Color:
To Do List:
1. Select window treatments (shades and curtains)
2. Find new or re-cover throw pillows
3. Wall hangings
4. Accessorize
5. Replace the rug?
I would define my style as contemporary and simple but I would really like to incorporate pattern and texture to create visual interest in this room. I think I can accomplish that by re-covering throw pillows and finding the right curtains. Chances are, I will probably end up doing a lot of sewing so I get the fabric and exact look that I want. (Believe it or not I can sew... but only straight lines!)
Readers - Let me know what you think or if you have any suggestions (color, accessories, furniture arrangement) to make this room look like it belongs in a magazine! :) If I incorporate your suggestion you will get something REAL NICE!
