This decor walkthrough stays in the order the work happens.
Ann Marie From White House, Black Shutters Just did a bit of redecorating in her living room and I think it looks lovely now. I love the old pieces, from the window to the 7up crate. I really like the history it gives the space. Great Job! Here is what she did:
Normally my life in the family room, blogging and living, is from the inside looking out (especially lately with this HUMIDITY and these MOSQUITOS!)
Inspired by some botanical prints I picked up earlier this summer at two different garage sales,I decided to bring the green of the outdoors into my family room. A window I saved when we replaced the old ones, with some accessories found at garage sales. A 7-Up crate to hold magazines, remotes, and a vintage milk bottle filled with clippings from the yard. and since we’re pretending this is a photo shoot for a catalog, lets throw in a weird prop like peppers for no good reason at all: The pillows were from (left to right) Goodwill, garage sale, ones I made myself, and PB from a garage sale. The coffee and side tables and lamps (although I’m looking for new drum shades) were both bought at a garage sale and painted. A big basket next to the couch keeps toys corralled and out of sight. The painted window frames and the curtains have really brightened the room. With a toddler and minus a million pillows, this is how it really looks most days: care for a flashback to see how it used to look? before: and the lovely, green, not-so-blah after for more befores, look at this post
What do you think about the changes? Don’t you love the fern prints?
