Living Room design help

6 years ago

Please see the picture. This is the only way the couch will fit. How do I glam this up? It’s the first room you see when you walk into the house. (Colonial style home. Looking to make it feel traditional and farmhouse-y)

    My husband refurbished that credenza so he won’t let it go. I have zero farmhouse furnishings bc I like things on Pinterest but can’t figure out what to buy... the sectional is dark gray but not velvet- normal couch material. We haven’t installed lighting yet. The ottoman needs to go- old and ripped. Any suggestions on how to make it farmhouse with a coffee table or rug I still need to purchase? Also I could throw the credenza in back of the couch so it’s not visible on the other side if you have a tv table recommendation!

    These are all Farmhouse-y. Do you have some inspiration?

    Here is some inspiration.....all I did was look at your inspiration picture and shopped on Houzz to try and get a look I think would come close to what you are looking for.


    These seem like they may work? Is this what you were looking to achieve? It really comes down to what you want in your room and picking similar color items

    I would put a floor lamp or sofa table and lamps between the window and the sectional.

    Are you going to have TV in this room...and why not put sofa in front of window the chaise would not be blocking entry into room....then the refinished piece can act an an end table?

    remove pillows you now have and go buy three sets of farmhouse style with grey creams and blacks and white in them and start there to give you a farmhouse feel you can build on.....

    If I turn it then the other side would be too big to get past- the chaise would be on the far side. Also my husband is afraid the single pain windows would be destroyed by the little ones. I am getting pillow covers! Good idea!!

    Did you notice a common theme in these inspiration photos? They all have crisp white walls. I would start with a fresh coat of white paint on the walls and take it from there. Keep pillows and accessories simple with whites, creams, light grays and blues.

    I was going to choose a light gray- any suggestions? It’s so dark in the house- not much natural light. Have to get some trees take.ln down. Guy cannot book us till February
