A Whole New Look for $30.
Now you all know that I love my traditional decor and sometimes I really like a neutral space, however there are times when I like something bold too. I thought things were starting to look a little too traditional and could use some sprucing up a bit. Looking around I discovered several colors and patterns were constantly repeated in more modern spaces. So, I added some to my room and I love the way it turned out.
Black and white is really popular, but I decided to add a little yellow to my mix too. Chevrons, geometric and of course sequins. Gotta’ have a little bling.
Everything else stayed the same, I just added a couple of black accessories and called it good.
I’ve been trying to like the skirted table you see in the above picture in front of the window, but I really, really like the little chest best. I have dark wood that I love, and since the dining area is part of this room – – –
the skirted table adds more light and color to this side of the room.
I think it balances the dark wood on each end of the room with the white sofa and pillows in the middle.
Just as an update – – – I decided that I love the crystals on the chandy just the way they are and I am going to leave well enough alone. If you missed that post you can catch up here.
Either way works, chest or table, right now I am loving it this way and I am also loving the black and white.
These are all pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. Five new pillows for $30.
So, what do you think? How do you update a room?
