Any suggestions with my lounge decoration, Please.
Comments (2)Mira, how you decorate the table will depend on its location. It would be helpful if you could photograph the room with your final furniture arrangement and accessories.

Comments (8)On Facebook recently, I recall seeing a soft crochet ball being used as an ottoman. Something like that would be safe for a toddler. Would NOT invest in a rug -- too easy for a toddler to trip over. Small room doesn't need it. You could decorate the room by focusing on decorating the walls. For the corner to the left of the door, a wood two drawer file cabinet could double as an end table rather -- solid and heavy than something lighter that could be pulled over. Then push your sofa against that. Plants and toddlers don't usually mix well. You could add a bracket for a flower hanging basket above the fixed side of your patio door -- hung out of reach of your toddler. You might try one flower in a very large, tall, heavy pot placed in front of the fixed side of your patio door to see if you can train the toddler to leave your plants alone. Wouldn't invest in more till you can get your toddler trained. You might also be able to find an adult sized bean bag chair -- no hard sharp edges -- in addition to a colorful bean bag chair especially for your toddler. For additional lighting, consider wall hung lamps behind your sofa rather than something that could be pulled over. https://www.lampsplus.com/products/lanett-brushed-nickel-swing-arm-plug-in-wall-lamp-set-of-2__1x503.html Since the safety of your toddler is obviously a priority, you might consider investing in a plastic toy box in lieu of a coffee table -- preferably one with a flat part that might be used as a coffee table whenever the toddler is asleep. https://www.step2.com/c/kids-furniture/toy-boxes-storage/...See MoreMy husband wants a big lounge chair in our small living room.
Comments (4)Have you gone chair shopping yet? Often the biggest chairs aren’t necessarily the most comfortable. Have him sit in several before you decide. Does he prefer a recliner? Or a chair and ottoman? These chairs come in all sizes and shapes. My husband’s favorite “easy” chair is the Alex chair by Arhaus. It comes in leather or fabric, and as a recliner or with a matching ottoman. It fits him. So....don’t rule out an “easy” chair without having him try them on for size. Then, perhaps, make a deal. He chooses the chair; you choose the fabric. Explore your Options! And then “educate” him about the possibilities! Good luck,...See MoreHelp In Re-Designing Family/Lounge Area
Comments (11)Thanks for info. The piano might be used later when kids are bigger. In the meantime, try creating a music wall by hanging the guitars on the wall, then put the kids' drum set, guitar and keyboard underneath. A keyboard stand can change height as they grow. A foldable music stand (or two) can be stored in a closet or on the wall, too. For this room, a sofa and chairs would be comfortable. Add an armless chair for playing guitar. Add a rug with pad and some curtains to help with acoustics....See More- 9 years ago
