LR decor update PIP

I decided to revamp the LR decor again by bringing in the DR feel of gray/black/yellow. 

 - the white scrolly frames will be positioned differently (just threw them up on existing nails to see what it may look like)

- I got the flower metal mirror, but instead of over the mantle it's hanging on the wall by the smaller window (above the old end table)

- still haven't decided on what to do for above the mantle

- will eventually replace TV and TV armoire with black stand and flatscreen

- may paint old end table black

- still need window treatments

- also need accent rug for foyer

  • Cool can't see!
    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

  • I like! I think it will really come together when the tv stand is black.  Can you get a similar rug in black for the foyer? I was going to suggest white but I realize that's probably a bad idea near the front door!

  • I really like that wall color.  It's coming together so well!

     

  • Ha, yeah - still a work in progress but it's heading in a good direction I think. Similar to the geometric you mean?  I haven't really seen anything like that around. I had my eye on this gray/beige geometric square rug, but thought the LR would be all crazy squares and didn't buy it. :-/ 

    Cannot WAIT for the new tv stand... because it means I'll have a big shiny flatscreen!

  • steph - luckily for us, we haven't had to paint one room (I'd love to paint the guest bedroom), but still. 

     Also - just found out the woman in the V-J Day kiss in Times Square photo (which I have over my mantle right now) died at 91.

  • Looks great mamie!! You're going to love your new tv when you get it.

  • I like everything but that little white shelf. But we've talked about that ;) Though it does look nicer than it did in the photo with the sellers stuff -- not as small/out of place on the wall. But I still don't like it. :P

    I really like the colors you're using. They've got this nice dual warm/cool feeling. The room feels very inviting.

  • SBS,  the white shelf thing doesn't bug me. It provides a nice place to hold up that B letter and probably a little bud vase/flower someday. Plus DH drops his keys there. If it wasn't there, I'd do a console table. 

    You're right on about the warm/cool mix. It's weird, but I like it.

    Send tax credit dust so I can buy my TV. I'm trying to be strong.
