Our Living Room

Hey – sorry for the absence.  I was originally thinking that I would wait until I had each room 100% like I wanted it before I revealed them on here.  HA!  It’s never going to be 100% done, and it’s also going to be a long time until I feel it’s even close.  Plus I have lots of ideas.
So, I decided to show rooms as they are and when I finish the projects and ideas I have, I’ll update them.  So here is our living room, as it is now.

One of the biggest things left to do is hang pictures.  We have some really nice prints we got for Christmas 7 years ago!!  They are still in the package, and have wrapping paper on them.  We just never got them framed, but we are now and they will hang up above the brown couch.  I am not sure what I want above the TV.  Ideas are appreciated.

When I planned the living room, I wanted built in shelves and cupboards in this little nook area.  I still want that, it’s just going to be one of the very last things.  However, we put our small living room table here and it looks nice.  I’ve added some of my decorations and I love how it turned out. 

The only new thing we picked up is the welcome to the ranch sign.  The rest are things we’ve had in various parts of the house.  The old-looking record player is a working one from Cabella’s.  The older yellow one is just for decoration.   We got the old window as a wedding gift, made by a friend of ours. 

Here is my jar basket  that I made HERE.  Just a few decorations for this corner. 

This is the other side of the room, facing the road.  I just picked up the curtains and rod on Tuesday. 
Nothing else is new in the house.  We’ve acquired the furniture over the years, the green couch matches one my Grandpa has – he didn’t need the smaller one.  The other two came from a local furniture store.  The end tables, couch table and tv stand all came from Walmart.  I ordered them online and had to put them together and they are very good quality stuff.  I’m impressed. 
Thanks for stopping – I’m hoping to have the master bedroom and bath ready for you shortly.
