Happy Friday Everyone!
This week’s #FixItFriday is focused on the Living Room! The living room is a room that you should WANT to LIVE in! Our client had a beautiful tract home and had traditional taste. They wanted a modern twist to their home, so we gave them one! Leave me a comment below on what you would do in this space to update it! Scroll down to see the 5 things I changed in order to reach the after!
5 Changes I Made:
- I removed the traditional drapery from the window frame and dressed the walls with floor to ceiling fabric panels in a traditional yet modern print, adding stencil print in between the paneling to complete the look.
- Filled the blank wall with a beautiful espresso wood built-in with white accessories to add a modern pop to the room.
- Added 4 white chairs, all facing the wicker ottoman/cocktail table to create an inviting conversational area.
- Grounded the room with a solid espresso area rug.
- Swapped out the miniature indoor plants with the larger plants that were more proportionate to the room.
hi, dear Rebecca & team,
I find your work is sooo amazing and chic, that we very often are speechless! I am totally in love with your design, your daughters DIYs and blog – and of course, Greysons pictures and ideas!
You are all a big inspiration for us – I must have seen your videos at least thrice each – we have so much fun watching you…
Please, continue doing such a wonderful and creative performance!
Big hug to all of you, Patricia
This room is one of my favorites and helps to answer a question I have regarding hanging the same curtains in the living room and dining room. I’m helping a friend make some changes to her house. She has a great room/dining room with large windows along the back wall. The dining room window includes a sliding glass door leading out to a deck. In that area, she has some very full striped drapes and a valance, and about 6 feet away on the same wall, her living room curtains are a solid color, different style, no valance, and not full. Not sure how to resolve this… Use the same curtains on both windows since visually they are so close together? She doesn’t have any pattern on her living room furniture so putting something on the windows with a subtle pattern or stripe shouldn’t be an issue.
You are amazing! I had been pinning ideas to redo my living room and dining room for days when I saw this beautiful home. It incorporates beautiful and thoughtful design in every detail. I absolutely love it.
Rebecca… You are truly amazing and have such a special gift of design and making spaces just so stunning and beautiful!
I have always loved interior design since I was a little girl, and my absolute dream in life would be to fly you to Australia and meet you and have you interior design my home. When we make our first million in business, that is the first thing on my to do list!
Until then, keep blessing others with your incredible talent!
