Parade of Homes:Living Room



UndertheTableandDreaming



Hello! Thank you for stopping by!

What an awesome and inspiring Parade of homes I've been browsing through this week! There is so much talent in this community!

I'm throwing in my two cents, sharing our living room, it's where my family spends most of our time. It's constantly changing and evolving...but I'm really happy with it right now, I hope you enjoy!



You'll see a lot of influnce of the sea around my home, it's where I long to be...







I'm in love with the color turquoise, I love to use it throughout the living room and kitchen


Spray paint is a close personal friend of mine, and a lot of furniture and accessories that I use have a coat or two of it on....this side table received a fresh coat of glossy white just last week (formerly black, grey before that)


The coffee table
I love having a round table, this grouping stays pretty much centered, and Logan is able to have his cars all around...the 'race track' is always open!
The sofa: the pillows never actaully stay like this, but being the only girl in the house...I gotta have my pillows!


This dresser has become one of my favorite pieces of furniture, it offers a lot of storage and acts as an end table
peek-a-boo!



I hope you have enjoyed our Living Room tour, I hope to share some more projects on how I created some of the details next week, I hope you join me!
Again, thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you're inspired! Thank you Poppies at Play for hosting!

  6. Hi Michelle,
    What a lovely clean and modern room. I love that turquoise too, and am busy right now incorporating it in our masterbath, cause I did it in my bedroom already. I love it with chocolate brown and pea green and white.
    You did a great job accessorizing your room as well. Just love it, it is all gorgeous.
    thanks for sharing it with us hon,
    Very very nice
    Blessings, Nellie

  8. Michelle,
    I just love your living room! It has such a perfect "sea" touch! I would so enjoy curing up on your huge couch with a good book!

  11. Great Living Room! I love how you've used color in so many unsuspecting places- like the ribbon around the lid of the woven box. I need some serious lessons in adding color. But I'm making some yellow sofa pillows today, so that's a start!

    Thanks for sharing!

  12. Your room is beautiful. You have a real knack for the "extra" touches. I particularly like your picture collage over the sofa (may have to steal that idea!). Thanks for sharing your room.

  13. Beautiful! Especially love that big round coffee table - what a gorgeous classic. And please tell me you emptied the drawers in that end table and they aren't always empty! Because that much de-cluttering would completely astound me.
    Best wishes ... Cass
