Living Room Finally Painted!

Okay - so there is still much to do. We are going to build a white mantle on the fireplace in place of the wood shelf, and my sticks are going in a cool vase eventually. Plus my frames don't even have pictures in them yet, we are getting a MUCH BETTER looking ceiling fan and putting in more lighting, etc etc. For my teeny weeny budget I really love my living room.
The colors are indigo and rust although the sunlight coming in from the skylights making them look like a much brighter blue.
Also we are waiting on some artwork. We are putting a giant tapesty above the stairs (wall not pictured here)

So far we have the dining room and living room completed. Next BIG project is our little kitchen but not until after the summer. That will be AWESOME! Our bedrooms have little finishes still necessary and those pictures will come later.

COME VISIT US. Everything looks much better in person!

STARTING THE WORK

AFTERS (sigh-ahh-my home)

I have to brag about my $100 couches, yup only $100 for TWO couches - I love bargain shopping. A little cleaning and they're good enough for me :) SO glad we didn't spend $1200 on that sectional!

I also ADORE my curtain rod, I am so into glass right now. I love the glass finials! And I found the blue curtains on CLEARANCE at Pier 1. I was so excited! They are very rich in color and silky in person.

More pictures when we have added the finishing touch. Just happy to have completed the painting! We had to have a 20' ladder - scerrry!
