Not sure which direction to go for coffee table - If i do a wrought iron book case should the coffee table have wrought iron? Or can it match the side tables what will have silver bases? Also, not sure where to look for similar dining table as one pictured above, but need dimensions to be around 5ft long and 3 ft wide - with bench to match! I found great options by sizes available are too big!

Hey guys! so I wasnt intentionally not replying...my phone got stolen from a department store (I accedentally set it down, lol!) So I got a new phone and had forgotten my login info (I was automatically logged in) I have still been searching for inspiration. I shouldnt be, but I am still so embarrassed of my house. A lot of it is because due to indecisiveness I have not replaced the furniture I cant stand. I feel like the things I pin on pinterest or save to the ideabooks still just dont fit my living room. I feel like because of the rectangleness of the room the dining room and living room almost have to match/coordinate. It also has to match the floors and the taupe wall color since those arent going anywhere anytime soon. In the ideal world I like shiny dark furniture, especially a dining table but in my head those are all diffrent dining rooms, or open dining rooms that match the kitchen. When you walk in its BAM living and dining room. So I feel like it's just making due with the space. I'm just not really a big fan of my house layout in general, but I am embarrassed to have people over.. My husband absolutely does not want to spend a lot of money on it. We were in a place to, but when we could I couldnt make up my mind. I found this on an Instagram bloggers. Her house really resembles ours, the couch against the window wall, the open living and dining room. I like how her coffee table and dining table match each other, it looks very coordinated. And I also like the black coffee table top with the black on her TV (in the same place as ours). But she posts links to her furniture and I def cant afford that or I'd just be copying lol! I wish I could just copy someone by the book but these bloggers all have a diffrent budget than I do! Hers does have a bit of a farmhouse vibe, but I like it because it is modern. I also like the dining table because it is not cloth chairs and with kids that doesnt always end the best! The style though farmhouse is very popular right now and modernized, from what I can tell. I like walking into target and seeing the target style. I know its modern and popular. I just want to make sure the dining room matches the living room. But I'm in a play or safe kind of vibe. Rooms to go and ashley is more in our budget, cheaper furniture sets and financing options. I like the ones at world market, wayfair etc. but they can be pricey and no financing.. This is that bloggers page:

Created another discussion I’m new to this app. Hopefully they show in that post

Unless you are going to change your fireplace surround, the surround and your floors are the fixed elements once you remove everything else. The surround looks creamy and the floor slightly gray. Blue would work with those colors. If this room is open to another room you should also be considering what colors are in that room as well. I think looking for a rug first is a good idea. Most furniture stores will have sofas available in about a dozen solid colors so you should be able to find one that goes with the rug. Measure what you have currently before going to the store and think about whether it is the right size for the space. This is your opportunity to get something larger or smaller if that would be an improvement. If you're able to patch the hole in the wall when moving the TV, definitely move it down or just put it on a new console. Pick your wall color last as there are hundreds of different paint colors to choose from. You will have plenty of time to paint while you wait for your new furniture to arrive.
