If you’ve been reading along with me by now you have probably realized I find my design inspiration in many places. Most of my interior design inspiration is found online on either Pinterest or Houzz. I see something I like and aim not to re-create, but to emulate the style and feeling of a room.
I found such a room that has set the wheels in motion for the living room. This is the only room in the house that when we bought it, had absolutely zero furniture in it. Most rooms we were able to furnish with things we had – although not necessarily what we want long term it works for now. The living room housed nothing, nada nilch – thus became a holding tank for boxes we had yet to unpack and things we didn’t know where to put.
This is the room we found for inspiration:
I am in LOVE with these chairs and this rug! So much so I thought you needed close ups:
How awesome is the nail head trim and the cute little detail on the back? Especially since these won’t be pushed up against a wall it’s nice that the detail carries through the back. The original inspo couch had nail head and the one I ended up ordering does not, so I got it on the chairs instead. 🙂
And this rug, I am completely and utterly in love with this rug. It is quite possibly the most beautiful rug I have ever seen in my entire life, and its in my house – and from HomeGoods no less!
So there is the beginning stages of the room, we are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the loveseat. We’re hoping it will cut down on some of the empty feeling as well as the echoing. The entire back of house is one long room, so the kitchen turns into the living room. Once we have a sofa facing the fireplace it will provide a little separation sort of “creating a room”
So what do you think? Are you as in love with it as I am?
