House tour: living room


Our house tour continues!  

It's taken me a long time to decide how I wanted to decorate our living room.  We had the basics because we needed them - couches, lamps, side table, tv stand.  It was the decor that I still needed to decide on to make the space feel put together and home-y.  Ok - so it was mostly the pillow covers I was looking for.  Finally, between Christmas and New Years I found them and could finish up the space.

Here is the design board I put together to help me see the items I wanted in my space all together.

Overall, I've come to like the space.  It feels causal, livable, and trendy.

Our living room is not big, instead of small I prefer to use the word "cozy." 




I found these great pillow covers at H&M.  They are just what I was looking for and SO affordable!




One thing I always try to incorporate into a space is something unexpected.  I liked this tin sign because it was unexpected and has since generated conversation and a few smiles.

I am a big fan of Anna Riflebond's work but instead of spending the money on a large print, I found this calendar page and fit it into a frame.  The "K" is from a local vintage decor store.


Before you start complimenting me on how nice the space is, I have to share a bit of reality.  With a 6-month-old boy who is now on the move, this is what our living room looks like most days. :)

In addition to decorating my own home, I also offer interior styling services.  The spaces I style are comfortable, liveable, and affordable.  Find more information here.

  1. Great tour! I love taking tours of people's homes, and you have such a comfortable, clean style. Oh, and love seeing the 'real life' picture at the end...a little kid on the move will do that to ya!

  2. Where is there an H&M? And I love seeing full rooms. It IS cozy, Beth. You've done a great job. (I think you need a big, blue rug, though.:) )

  3. Cozy is definitely the word to describe your living room. It's quite understandable how messy your living room can get on most days. It must be difficult to keep the place neat when a six-month-old baby boy is on the move. Hahaha! Anyway, thanks for giving us a lovely tour, Beth! All the best to you! :)
