Living room makeover

By DIYdreamer

I'm going to give my living room a makeover. I think it's going to cost just under 300$. The only things I'm buying is paint, brushes and filler (is that the word?) Oh, and I bought two lamp bases and shades at a used furniture store. They were about 8$. I bought pistacchio green and dark pink paint and I think it's going to be lovely. 3 walls will be green and one pink. On the pink wall I'm going to hang a yellow buddhist monk robe on a curtain rod. I have a red sixties set of sofas and I'm going to arrange them in a cozy way. Also I plan to fill my walls with my colourful art, some of which I made myself. I painted the lamp bases with the green paint for the walls to tie the room better together and the shades will be the dark pink. It's going to be a colourbomb! I hope to be finished by May but it may be later as I have pneumonia and a broken rib at the moment. Still, I'm managing to do the little things so maybe I can meet my deadline. Oh, and I already tore down a wall that divided my kitchen from the livingroom.

Bee This is what my living room looks like now. Pretty bleak, huh?

You have so much potential there with the wood floors and the big window. I like the wood blinds you have up. With some good paint that room is going to rock. Can't wait to see the after pics!
