Living Room

A chipped dresser corner, a slightly faded floral pillow, and a crystal chandelier that looks a little too fancy for the room somehow that mix just works. Shabby chic brings that lived-in, loved-on feel that makes a space look collected over time instead of staged in five minutes for the internet. And honestly, a home […]

Look, I’ll be straight with you, green living rooms are having a major moment right now, and honestly? It’s about time. If you’ve been scrolling through Pinterest at 2 AM (no judgment, we’ve all been there), you’ve probably noticed how green has become the go-to color for people who want their living room to feel fresh, sophisticated,

Blue can fix a living room fast, like “why does this room feel flat?” fast. You know that moment when your sofa looks fine, your rug looks fine, your curtains look fine… and somehow the whole space still feels like a waiting room? Yeah, that’s where blue shows up and saves the day. I’ve played

Your living room probably does fine most days. Then you see one ridiculously pretty modern contemporary space online, and suddenly your couch looks guilty, your lighting feels suspicious, and that random corner screams, “Do something about me.” Sound familiar?

I spent years shoving books on random furniture before I finally committed to built-ins, and honestly? Game changer. These aren’t just shelves they’re like the Swiss Army knife of living room design.

Look, I get it. You’re staring at your living room, and it feels about as exciting as watching paint dry ironically, because that’s exactly what you’re considering doing. But here’s the thing: yellow might just be the design hero you didn’t know you needed. It’s bold, it’s cheerful, and when done right, it’s absolutely stunning.

So you’ve got a brown couch. Maybe you inherited it, maybe you bought it thinking “versatile!” and now you’re staring at it wondering how to make your living room look less “college apartment” and more “design magazine.” I get it—brown can feel tricky. But here’s the thing: a brown couch is actually one of the

So you’re thinking about adding a fireplace to your farmhouse-style home, or maybe you’re just tired of staring at that boring brick box in your living room? I get it.
