I am so excited to announce we are actually talking about doing something to the living room!!
Not what you were expecting , right?
Well , Let’s see….6 months ago we moved into this house.
Only one month ago I broke down, cleaned our nasty carpet, removed the wall paper and started using our living room.
Which means we’ve been living in our bedroom, basically for 5 months! It’s been driving me crazy. It also means that our living room is still a disaster and we are using the space!
Remove wall paper : check!
Today we are moving all the furniture back out and were primer-ing and preparing the walls for paint!
Guess what comes after paint….carpet!! I’m so excited to finally get carpet for this space.
Notice the “…” on the todo list. I have pretty big plans for this space. Which, is why it’s taking so long. Big plans mean big money.
I know I’m Miss Frugal. But, I truly believe if you spend money (Not lots of money, just what’s necessary ) on the bones of a space ( walls , doors/windows, carpet/flooring ,etc.) The rest of the space will come together nicely and you can save money on the decor.
…I’ll keep you updated!
Hop over to my Pinterest living room inspiration board to see some of my living room ideas.
