My living room is in serious need of some freshening up. I'm just so over this color scheme. It is always autumn in my house. With spring right around the corner, I figured this is the perfect time to switch things up.
The picture above is still mostly what our living room looks like now. A few things have already changed though. We got rid of the ladder bookcase as soon as my son was able to pull up on things. Now there is just a lamp there lighting up an empty corner. We also sold the table lamp on Craigslist.
I have a mostly neutral space with olive green and rust accents. We won't be getting new furniture, so I'll be relying on accessories to change the feel of this room.
Here's what I came up with:
I already have the fabric in 3 & 5 to make throw pillows. I also already have the fabric to make new drapes like the ones in picture #1. 2,4, 8, & 7 are pieces that I'm looking to find cheaper versions of. #6 is the leather Jappling chair from Ikea and it's only sold in stores. We have the money all saved up for that chair, now I just have to make a trip to Charlotte to go get it. Oh, Ikea! Why couldn't you have built your massive store closer to Raleigh?

i am so going for this look! except i have a tan wall, and bring in the browns and blues. can't wait to see how you do this-and those fabrics are so fab!!!
Just found your blog thru copycatchic.com, and I'm really enjoying it! These ribba shelves from ikea are like your #4: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/40126069
They aren't quite as deep, but the cost difference is dramatic!
