I’ve been playing around with the pieces in my living room over the past few months and have finally accepted the fact that it will never be completely done and I’ll constantly be changing things around from time to time. It was definitely a struggle filling up the space after just graduating college. We chose to keep everything affordable and pretty versatile so that we were able to fill the entire space quickly. That way, if we ever decide to move, we can sell certain pieces and not feel too bad about it (i.e: switch out the basic white coffee table or TV console). Initially we wanted to paint the walls a light grey and then once we start painting, it turned out much darker (we are newbies at the whole decorating/DIY process)! In the end I love the effect darker walls give because that means your furniture stands out a lot more. It also creates a more inviting and homey feeling. I tried to link everything below for you guys in case you were interested (or at least similar items), but a lot of the home decor came from Home Goods! Hope you enjoy:) xx
