Living Room Redesign - 99.9% Finished!


The room is short two pillows, but that little detail is not stopping it from becoming a great space to hang out in and get some work done.





A sunburst mirror, originally intended for the Girl's Dream Bedroom, finds a home here.




The dog is apparently enjoying the space as well. Oh, who am I kidding. He hangs out wherever I am, pretty space or not!!

Isabella's Roscoe painting, The Blog House, Steelmaster Storage and a favorite quote by Paul Wiseman.



"It's in my horoscope. I'm a Cancer on the cusp of Leo. You know, Cancers are very domestic, and Leos are very aggressive. So what do you do with aggressive housewives? You make them decorators." Paul Wiseman




Once the Carlisle fabric is delivered I'll stitch up the last pillows and post an update. Until then, let me get some work done.

Next: An unexpected detour...

This (almost) finished room is attending Transformation Thursday at The Shabby Chic Cottage!

I love that quote! The room looks great Janell! Does your floor lamp in the corner mimic the table? I love the shade on it. I don't know if I would be getting any work done ~ I'm sure I'd keep looking around at everything!

Damnit, Janell...every time I see one of your posts I want to completely change my whole house!! It's gorgeous! Way to take a room you weren't using and turn it into a beautiful space you can all share. I would love to do work in that room!!

It turned out great (just as I knew it would!). LOVING the curved sofa too - can't wait to see the punchy pillows. They'll be the perfect finishing touch.

Love the room ~ so interesting in the details. You sew your own pillows??! Where do you find the time??! My dog use to hang out with me a lot, until she found how easy it is to get into my duaghter's toys. Apparently they are tasty. Love the quote too. You are very good!

The space is wonderful. It looks like a fabulous place to be inspired and be productive (well, when one is not gazing around at the beauty of it all). Love the corner with the quote, art, cabinet, and that pop of color in the fresh flowers is just perfect. Well done! xo
