Good morning and Happy Saturday! I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend. Today I wanted to share some photos of our living room with a lightened up look that goes with the blue we now have in our dining room and that feels a little more airy for summer.
For the most part I love the organized, less cluttered feeling in our house that comes in January when all of the Christmas decorations go back into the attic but in this room I actually really missed the tree! I loved walking by the living room every day and the cozy feeling it adding to the room.
Well, although I don’t think any room is every really “done” in our house I did add some finishing touches to our living room recently that help make it feel “finished for now”. Haha! Mary-Catherine from Copper Corners contacted us about creating a custom piece for our space. I sent her photos of our room and the dimensions about the sofa and she created this gorgeous painting for us!
I knew that I wanted to add a couple of family photos to the walls in our living room but I wasn’t sure what to do about the frames. The room already had two large pieces of artwork with gold frames and a large gold framed mirror (which I think will finally be moving to Lillie’s room this week because I think I’ve found something for above the mantel) and a huge framed canvas that will be going over the sofa soon so the idea of adding more frames sounded so heavy.
I had been really missing having the color scheme we had in the den/study of our last house and decided as much as I did NOT want to paint our living room again, I should just bite the bullet and do it and I am so glad I did.
