Help--How do I build living room around loveseat?
Comments (8)The room is 11X13. We have two chairs we can put in the room now, but nothing we're committed to. This house is basically a clean slate for us, and I'm struggling with thoughts about how to start. I don't want to just hop over to ikea to get it all done, but I do need it functional pretty quickly. Anyhow, I'd love ideas on how to work around/with the loveseat, and start a process that is totally new to me. I've never invested in furniture or decorating b/c we were never in one place long enough for it to make sense. Many thanks!...See MoreFamily room/living room arrangement and decor help
Comments (5)Are you okay to put the TV above your fireplace? If concerned about having all the wires dangling down, you can have an electronic "eye" installed at the bottom corner of the TV that to operate your TV components using your existing remotes...i.e., cable box, speaker/sound system, DVD player, etc. They're fairly reasonable and easy to install. Then move your TV cabinet next to the fireplace and add some decorative items (vases, candles, books) on top where the TV currently lives. All the wires would get fed through the wall and into the back of the small cabinet to the components. My husband installed the "eye" on our TV that is above the fireplace. All the wires are fed through the wall to the built-in next to the fireplace. They are completely hidden away. A clean look, no wires hanging down, components hidden away. Next, by moving the TV above the fireplace will free up the space in front of the window. Maybe relocate the loveseat (for now until you get something else) in front of the windows. This will improve traffic flow and help both spaces more open. We have a similar situation between our kitchen and family room area. I've found that keeping that area open makes feels and the foot traffic flow better. We have 2 dogs, 2 adults, 2 kids...lots of feet :)...See MoreLiving room and dinning room decorations and curtain suggestion..

Comments (6)The rug is the wrong orientation in relation to sectional. Rotate the sectional so the chaise is on the fireplace wall. Or pull the sectional back, center it on the fireplace, and rotate the rug to center on the fireplace. And remove the pieces from in front of the fireplace so the rug can be closer to it. Can you separate the sectional into two pieces facing each other, one under the window and one on the wall -- and rotate the rug down the middle between them. That woud be ideal...you could see more of the rug. And get bold artwork for the long wall that will compliment the bold rug. Go to greatbigcanvas.com ,for a large canvas print..a fun site and reasonable. 60x40 or 48x32. I searched for peach and teal under Abstract and found these: https://www.greatbigcanvas.com/category/abstract-art/?color=382&color=398&shape=1...See MoreRawketgrl
