Living Room Makeover Reveal – What now?

A reveal of any part of my house would not be complete without toys.
Just keeping it real folks.

Ready for the real thing?

 

 

Green. Green. And more green.

You don’t miss the green, do you? I know I don’t!

A peek of our painted wallpaper hallway.

Made a subway art sign for my wall above the couch out of part of a dresser top. Not sure if I want to leave it that high or put it just above the couch on the paneling. I love the paneling so much I hate to cover any of it up but now I’m hard pressed as to what else to put on the wall. And it needs something else. Currently thrifting for some fun end tables and chunky lamps. Maybe that’ll fill things in over there a bit.

Christmas art my oldest made years ago. Daddy drew the pics, he painted them. Love those but they come down after Christmas. I’m pretty sure I know what I want to do here. It involves more wood, lighting and a nice chunky picture frame. We’ll see.

See. This area really needs….something.

Ever noticed how much nicer everything looks with Christmas decorations. I hate taking them down.

One of these days I am going to tackle that mantle. It needs to be chunkier and a lot less black. Can you paint those metal inserts? We’re about to find out!

Definitely going to redo the tile around the fireplace one of these days, too. It’s so boring especially now that we jazzed up the walls. I’m thinking some little glass tiles? Also, going to get around to putting in new flooring throughout the whole house. Seeing as the crazy people who built the house put it in all willy, nilly in every direction but the right one. Either way, that tile on the floor…has. to. go.

One of my most favorite things we’ve ever done, our Pallet Coffee Table

Of course, I would love it even more if I could decorate the lovely wooden tray that graces it but as far as the baby’s concerned it is only fit to hold his “Crucks”.

And the biggest dilemma of all…what I am going to do with that big empty corner once that amazing tree is gone. I wanted to cry just thinking about it and now, as I sit here typing this and staring into the abyss that once housed that very tree, I am more stumped than ever.

Well, like I said, everything looks nicer with Christmas decorations. But really, there has to be a way to make it all holly, jolly in the meantime. Right?

I’m not sure. But if I ever get it figured out, I’ll be sure to let you know. I would love to hear your thoughts and ideas!

      Hi Lisa,

      I am so sorry but I have no idea what color it is! I know that sounds bizarre but I’ve totally forgotten and I can’t seem to find the can around here but I did look! Thank you!

      Thank you very much Mindi! I love board and batten myself. I would put it everywhere if I could talk my husband into the “hard labor”. 😉
