Any ideas for a living room update?
Comments (24)The color is lighter but it's still too big and puffy. My 2 cents, and story from childhood: Both my grandmas lived within 3 miles of us and regularly hosted large family gatherings (30-50 of us). Neither had giant sectionals where all could have a puffy seat, just a regular sofa and a couple of upholstered chairs. We sat where we could, used lots of folding chairs and tables for meals and to play cards. Kids were in and out of the house playing. Looking back, the lack of seating was never a problem because being together was key. I will add, I've been married almost 50 years, have raised two sons, decorated always around their needs and likes. Now, my home is filled with my style and lots of memories. My hubby, bless him, has learned that as long as it is comfy and fits him, the decor is all my choice! Good luck with your decor reform!...See MoreAny ideas for my living room?
Comments (4)I would agree with the previous comment, finding a counsel table for under the tv with open space underneath to store ottomans or even a built in or floating media center. ( I used something similar in my 80’s living room update). An area rug will help make the room feel more inviting, cozy, and curated. It also looks like you tv is mounted much too high for ergonomic tv watching. The center of the TV should land somewhere around 61 to 65 inches from the floor. I would also agree with removing the dog crate and pulling the couch away from the wall a bit and getting end tables or purchasing a dog crate end table (I believe some are even sold on Houzz). Next you should layer in lighting with either a floor lamp, wall sconces, or table lamps. And to make the space feel a little more lively you can add a faux plant or two and include a large piece of artwork over the couch (nothing too dark or visually heavy though)...See MoreHi, any ideas on decorating /painting /furnishing this living room
