Here is it empty:
Here it is during our furniture arrangement phase:
And here it is in it's current state:
It's funny how differently a room looks in a photograph. In this picture I see how I can really use a rug. I thought of layering a large natural fiber rug trimmed in gray with a cowhide on top... like this one:
Or this:
I am also thinking of changing the end table hardware to these:
I am trying out this end table I found at HomeGoods - it might be a little too rustic...
There it is...at least until tomorrow, when I change something....

ReplyDeleteVery very nice I am so loving this room. This is one room that I said to myself WOW!!! I really like this..Enjoy your new room.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

It looks great!! I wouldn't add a rug, the carpet is too soft and it will probably make it hard to walk. Did you take the price tag off the piece of above the piano yet?? The room looks absolutely beautiful. What's next?
ReplyDeleteWOWEE!! Talk about a dramatic difference! Everything looks so gorgeous and you completely transformed that room into a magazine worthy space. :-) Thanks so much for sharing it with us at Inspiration Friday this week!

ReplyDeleteYour living room looks great! Ours has been in transition for months now so I'm definitely going to borrow some of your ideas-like the photo arrangement behind the couch! Two thumbs up!!
ReplyDeletelooks great, liz! the photos behind the couch are more you than the artwork you had purchased. and i must say, you have the touch when it comes to tablescapes! i'm really going to need you come march!!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a gorgeous home! You have a great eye. LOVE your photos behind the sofa, a true eye catcher!
ReplyDeleteDonna
Stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning. Did I mention your room is just STUNNING!?
ReplyDeleteSeriously, you've done a fabulous job at really elevating the style in that space. And I LOVE that HomeGoods table - don't just try it out, keep it! I sooooo wish I had a HomeGoods where I lived - I'd be all over that!
Excellent job!
Take care,
Christina

I think it's stunning! I love the color of the walls...do you mind sharing? The drapes, the lamps and the black & white photos are really my taste. Thanks so much for sharing! I can only imagine how much you're enjoying this space now.

I seriously thought this was a magazine picture. AWESOME job girl. Thanks for sharing with the newbie party. I really like the zebra rug.

What a stunning living room! I adore all of the accents that you chose! This is definitely magazine-worthy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a transformation!!!! My goodness, I wouldn't have even guessed that it was the same room from the first picture! Great job and great pics!

What a great sense of style!! Love your ideas for the rug and hardware, both would give it a nice finished look!
ReplyDeleteYour living room looks so classic and your photographs are magazine worthy! Good Job! I'm loving your sofa...wondering where you found it?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great transformation. I love the gray paint on the walls with the hits of bright green. You seem to have got a very workable arrangement of furniture now too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful transformation! I love the grey on the walls! Do you remember the name of the paint? Love the pops of green from the pillows! My vote is for a cowhide rug. It'd be perfect. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! What a change! I love every detail! :) Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful room in at the DIY party!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning!

Thank you so much for all of the lovely comments! The paint color is Ashes by Behr, and the sofa is from Storehouse - but I think they went out of business a few years ago. Ryan would gladly sell it to anyone interested, but I love it!
ReplyDeleteYour living room is beautiful! Love the splash of green. Great style!
ReplyDeleteSharon

Very calm and serene. Love the driftwood balls on the coffee table--I'm a beach lover living in Kansas!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors you chose. The wall color is delicious--the perfect gray! The pictures above your couch are spot-on and I personally LOVE your "rustic" table--I would def keep it. Great job! Visiting from My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia.
ReplyDeleteI love the room! It is beautiful! The sigh of relief you will feel once your living room is done! We're almost finished ours as well. I see a lot of inspiration in your room especially the artwork.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty. Would love to show it off on my blog tomorrow!!!
ReplyDeleteYaaay, Liz!! I am SO thrilled to see one of my online design boards come to life! You have done a great job putting the room together! Keep me updated on the rug situation...I am loving the black and white cow hide!!

I was considering getting a zebra hide rug. Soon.
ReplyDeleteAmazing space.

Love your space! Looks similiar to what I am trying to pull together for my living room! May I ask what size your frames are? Where did you get them?
ReplyDeleteCame from a Thoughtful Place - love it! So modern and fresh! I'd love to cozy on up there :)
ReplyDeleteBeeeeeutiful!!! :) Thanks for linking up at Feathered Nest Friday!
ReplyDeleteIt's all so stunning! I would love to have you guest post in my makeover monday series. Email me at alivedinhome@gmail.com for details.
ReplyDeleteDon't return the side table! Not too rustic! Love it. And I say go for the zebra rug!
Beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI'm also interested in the frames behind the couch. What size are they and where did you get them? I'm currently looking for some for our living room.
What's up, just wanted to say, I enjoyed this article. It was funny. Keep on posting!
