I am absolutely, 100% not a decorator. I love to look at house designs and home decor almost as much as I do fashion ideas. I always feel I can never create decor like I see in other homes. And while I love lots of different themes, I have a few favorite categories: minimal, industrial, farmhouse, traditional, French country. I also like a mix of all of those! I’m going to share a couple of small spaces in my living room that I like and that someone else could take much further. For reference, my living room is a mix of cream, gray, and black.
First, I have a table space behind the couch that I put together using items from Walmart, Hobby Lobby, and Dollar General; yes, Dollar General! The black table is a Walmart purchase from around five years ago. I had it in my office at work until I retired. The bowl came from Hobby Lobby, and I thought it was a great blend of cream and gray. The tall, modern piece is a very recent purchase from Dollar General. Right now, Dollar General has a great selection of small decor items that can be used on tables, shelves, etc… They also have great pillows and throws.
On the entertainment center, I usually keep it very simple, changing out the decor with the seasons. My good friend Lori Flint gave me a copy of my favorite novel of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird. I just used some old decor on it. I purchased this tulip bundle from Amazon. I think it is a great value and can be used in so many places with a variety of vases. I think it is so cute!

Last, probably my favorite area of the living room is this great chair that I got at TJ Maxx. Since we build the house, I wanted a way to sit and look out the picture windows. I looked for years, mostly at TJ Maxx because they have awesome accent chairs at a good price. I never could quite picture how it would look, and exactly where to place the chair. I finally bought the chair below and put it in several spots before settling on this one. This is where I sit on weekend mornings when it is too hot or cold outside and have my coffee and look at Pinterest-one of my favorite activities.
I will be updating the wall art on the wall opposite the TV in the next couple of weeks, so I’ll update when I do!
