Alrighty it is time to get back to my living room. Do you all feel like I am cheating by allowing other people to decorate my room?? I kind of think I am a genius for convincing these ladies to come in and breathe new life into my house. When I asked them if they were also willing to pay for everything they recommended none of them seemed game…weird, right?! Guess I gotta take what I can get (#victim). Today I have one of my favorite bloggers and friends. Elizabeth from Little Black Door was one of the first blogs I started reading 5 or 6 years ago, which is basically the beginning of time in the blog world, and I immediately loved her distinctive sense of humor and basic, don’t-take-anything-too-serious attitude. She can work an estate sale like no other yet somehow she comes home with things that aren’t musty and weird like I would. Let’s say hey and see what colorful magic she has up her sleeve!
Thanks so much for having me Beth! You know me well – mention a room refresh and some online shopping and I am there.You laid the perfect groundwork for the room, so what did I do?
I painted your buffet table, ‘campaigned’ it and moved your family gallery wall over to make room for some new art over the sofa and some additional lighting. Mood lighting. Pillows were kept to a minimum, I’ve got kids and I know where pillows end up – on the floor, and I added an airy chair that will not be in the way of the door but will give additional seating for when I come over. 🙂 Roman shades behind the sofa will prevent curtain smooshage (may not be a word but its a real life problem) and additional baskets keep toys and life organized.
I can’t wait to see what you do with the space. Thanks again for letting me play! xo

What a great room! And I agree about the comment about the pillows kept to a minimum with kids…it seems I am always picking them up from the floor and putting them back on the couch…of course this is sometimes the only exercise I have time for so it could be seen as a win;)

I know! Why do we mothers not realize that multipe pillows just aren't feasible right now?? Good point about the exercise though, ha ha!
