Living Room Finished

7.7 2010

Prologue – If you aren’t interested, please jump down to the photos.
I’ve had yesterday’s post about our couch + today’s post about our living room ready to blog for 2 months, I’ve been waiting on the time lapse video.

Initially Chris was working on the video, but the project is a wee bit beyond his skills + more importantly his time. We started to explore outsourcing the video + found an awesome + local guy, Marty Patch. He is amazing + I couldn’t be happier with the end result.

However, because the whole mess has taken so long, here we are facing our move this weekend. I find this post a little pointless except that Caitlin + I worked so hard on the project. Not to mention, I’m mighty proud of the whole thing.

Welcome

Caitlin ordered the rocker. The side table is actually my 1976 pfaff sewing machine + table. The three paint by numbers are what Caitlin refers to as my ‘collection’.

The bench Chris + I recovered forever ago. The drapes Caitlin found at a thrift store. The pillow with the letters is from Urban Outfitters + the rest of the pillows I made.

We got the table when we first got married, the chairs are again ordered from Caitlin.

Thanks for visiting!

Visit Caitlin’s site HERE, you should hire her for all of your decorating or e-decorating needs.

    That was a blast to watch. We had an big old reupholstered couch for 20 years of marriage. It was irreplaceable. I still miss it.
19. kimberly :

    I approached costa rica investment opportunities because i wanted a house with a huge living room, so i decided to built my own house with all the space that i wanted to have, now i am really happy.

    It always seems to happen with me that as soon as I get the house situated the way I want it, we move. So, I know how you feel! Good luck with your impending move. We just went through it too. Now, we're redecorating....again. It's interesting how your furniture and stuff can keep reinventing itself with new paint and new accessories!
