Living Room Makeover Reveal

I am back! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I know what you are thinking.....One:  Finally she is back! and Two: FINALLY, she is going to post this living room makeover that she has been talking about for months!!! Being the OCD person that I am, I just couldn't post it until I had pretty much everything the way I wanted it. So here we are! I hope you enjoy...

I LOVE IT!!!
Here is a before picture. I just love how much brighter it is now!

Wow! What a difference!!!

We bought our new couch back in April and I still love it.

I made the yellow, chipper pillow covers to go on the couch. I would like to add some more pillows at some point. I just haven't found what I want yet. 

I kept the Van Gogh pictures behind the couch. Van Gogh is my favorite artist, and the colors in his work fit well with my color scheme. My mother-in-law got me a calendar one year for Christmas, so I used the pages from it as prints after using the calendar.

I am sure you remember the chairs that I bought on clearance and recovered. Here is the tutorial on how to reupholster a chair.

I made these felt, flower pillows. I think they suit the chair well.

This is one thing that I am still not completely satisfied with. I know that this table is entirely TOO SMALL! I haven't found the right table yet, but when I do, I am getting it! I also feel like that corner needs something else. It is just to bare! It looks great with my Christmas tree in there because it fills that space. So I am still on the look out for something.

Do you remember this table from my decorating goals post last year? I have finished many things on that list, I just haven't posted some of them!

I painted it a long time ago and now it looks like this...

So much better!!!

I put new curtains up and boy did they brighten that room up! I got them at Ikea. They came with two panels, so I took them and cut the panels in half and sewed the edges. I had four panels and only needed three, so I used the leftover fabric for other projects. 

Our dining room and living room are connected so I decorate my shelves to match. Here is the post for everyday shelf decor.

Remember this table?

It is now painted gray and decorated in my dining room.

Post on this side table to come soon.

I spray painted some things that I already had and added some new fabric to change things up a little. Check out this post to see these simple updates.

I love the way everything has come together! I think everything is so much brighter and happier! Doesn't look so gloomy in this poor little house that doesn't have many windows!

I am so glad to finally share this with you! I am sure I will be making some small changes here and there. So I will try to keep you updated! I have some more things to post, so check back soon!
