GREAT ROOM REVEAL!
One of my closest friends, Liz, recently downsized from a good size 5 bedroom home to a 3 bedroom townhouse. She's had to make many decisions regarding what furniture to keep, what to eliminate and what new furniture to buy.
Here she is stuffed into the back seat of my car after the Decorator's sale! See that post here |
Like us all, or at least some of us, Liz is on a tight budget and she and I have brainstormed ideas on how to furnish her townhouse using what she has first.
Today, I am featuring her great room. This is a large rectangular room with lots of light. It is a hardworking room and needs to fulfill the needs of a dining room, living room and office space!
One of her new purchases was a sofa and armchair.
Taking inspiration from the colors of the armchair....

she took the plunge and painted her desk and filing cabinets!
And what a transformation! Isn't it awesome??
She even painted the hardware!
Check back soon and see other transformation she and I made to her home!

Mandy

We recently down-sized, too. It has been so much fun to use things from our old house in different ways!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I did a post on gradient color painted dressers a few weeks ago.
