living room

Designing the living room was a big deal to me. I was so nervous because my main color was from my drapes that I sewed! I tend to be colorful, and for the sake of my husband I tried my best to keep the colors neutral with small pops of color in accent pillows, drapes, etc...


I purchased the couches years ago, the vintage train cart was from Home Goods, rug ikea, entertainment piece-ikea, lamp-z-gallerie, pillows-pottery barn/home goods/target.

I was so worried with the wall colors, but once we got the drapes up I really love how the room turned out!

I pinned this a while back and absolutely loved it since we do have such a great "meant to be story" our story I knew I could make it a lot cheaper than what I have seen some sold for! 

I found some 2x4 in the garage, stained it, sanded, stained again, and beat the crap out of the wood! I ended up ordering vinyl since I hate my handwriting and was very inexpensive to order, plus this lady is awesome!! I have ordered a few mongram items, gifts, etc and she is so quick and easy to work with!! http://www.etsy.com/shop/glassden
