30 day room challenge

Buying a house, moving and unpacking/organizing is a lot of work. So decorating has been kind of put on the back burner for a while. It can be daunting to fully decorate a room. Sometimes we get overwhelmed, so when I saw Thrift Diving’s challenge to complete a room in 30 days, I thought "what the heck, it’s worth a shot!" It will help me get motivated to complete a whole room. So I encourage you to go over and sign up as well.

The room I decided on is my living room. I have some before pictures from the previous owners that I got off of Redfin, as I am notorious for forgetting to take before pictures.

As you can see, this room had lots of potential. Its open but still separated from the dining room. I plan on decorating it in a fun style I call "vintage glam coastal." "What the heck is that?" you ask. Well, you will have to wait until the end of June to see!

I plan on painting the walls, doing something fun to the bookcase, redoing a couch and painting a few furniture items. I also have to get curtains, artwork and replace those hideous modern sconces on the wall.  The floors need to be redone, but that’s a major project for a later date. For now I will just add some rugs.
