Antique bronze lamp and zebra shade: Walmart.
in this room and I was really excited to show you the changes that I’d made.A whole lot has changed in here again this year, thanks to us now having a toddler in the house, so let’s get you filled in on what’s been going on!.
If you just clicked over to check out last year’s living room post, then the first thing you’ll probably notice is that we got a whole bunch of new furniture!.With a fourth person in the house, we were definitely in need of some more seating so we had the sectional and the chair made in really durable fabrics that can stand up to a little boy jumping all over them and smearing various food products into them all day long.. We really do spend the majority of our time in here playing and hanging out and eating and playing some more so this room really needs to be tough and also comfortable..The one major thing that we didn’t change in here since last year is the rug.
I’ve actually had a lot of people ask me about this rug even though it’s really just a super cheap, basic rug from a big box store.It came from those bins with the rolls of rugs that are meant to be put in a garage or somewhere really utilitarian.
We wanted to get something that we could really make a mess of, basically, and then not feel bad about when it’s time to throw it out in a year or two.
We thought that as long as we got something grey-ish, it would probably look decent enough until we’re ready to get something fancy that won’t have food squished into it daily..It was a little bit because I wanted a cleaner look, but mostly because the letters kept falling off the wall and taking paint with them and it usually just said “mg”.
Those are actually Kennedy’s uncle’s initials and, believe it or not, this room just wouldn’t suit him..So Kennedy’s full monogram was restored..
Bonus: They’ve actually stayed up for three consecutive days now!I love you, hot glue.. OK, a girl can only resist this kind of cozy bed corner design mastery for so long.
