Living room decorating- two very different options.....
Comments (8)I'd like to see the floral - too bad there are no pictures. I looked up (and linked) the LLBean sofa - not convinced it's right for your room. A bit on the modern side (the lines). What does the outside of your home look like? Beautiful room, lovely color and great FP. Oh, fwiw, after two years in our home, the great room is nothing as I pictured before we moved in - it is better! Once we lived in the house awhile....and after one wrong sofa purchase - hello Goodwill - not to mention the rug that's now in a guest bedroom, it's perfect. Don't be in a rush! Here is a link that might be useful: LLBean Ultratight...See MoreNewly installed gray carpet looks purple - Help me decorate!
Comments (4)I was thinking maybe something like a navy or lighter blue may work. I really am not a purple fan and have no purple in the rest of my house so I want to avoid that. We have 2 dogs that shed a lot so a darker shade of blue may not work well for us. I'll have to look through some inspirational photos with navy couches to see if I like the look anyway!...See MoreLiving Room Decorating Advice (seating and rug help).
Comments (40)Your sectional and rug are fine but then the effect is ruined by the two dark pieces that don't "belong". Could you possibly change the coffee table for one that is glass and metal? It would really open up your room and give a lighter, friendlier ambiance. Try and get one with two levels so the bottom can be used for storing books, which always give more personality to a room. I would put a light blue and beige pillow on your dark chair to give it some relation to the rug and sofa. The wall behind the chair could be used as a gallery wall or try several fairly large and colorful paintings there. Try a large plant or two against that wall also in some beautiful and interesting pots. Instead of the harsh ceiling light have a table lamp and a table with a lamp on it, one by the chair and one by the sectional. Your room will look so much warmer and user friendly....See MoreHelp me pick out a rug, cushions, and other decor for my living room!
Comments (1)As per the photo, the lighting seems to be very warm. can you upload more photos of the space and in natural light or may be start with change the lights....See Moreloobab
