After that, I just pulled a few more extra pillows into this room that were floating around the living room, stuck them in a basket and on a side chair and things were looking pretty great.
All that empty space to work with is making me nervous, but I’m slowly gathering my thoughts about how I want it to feel in here..Most of the furniture (except for that exercise bike!)
will be staying for now, but we’ll be adding some curtains, a rug, new bedding, a new light fixture, and some other fun things to make it feel extra comfortable for the next little while until we’re ready to start tearing down (more) walls..In the future, we’re going to do some built-in storage on this wall with some open shelving exposing the brick, but for now just some trim around rough edges of the door way will do the trick..I started gathering a few supplies recently and I’m pretty excited about where this is going..
I have a few different fabrics that I’m considering too for pillows and stuff like that.I don’t know anything for sure though yet.
I feel like every time I add something or change something, the whole direction and mood of the room changes and then I have to rethink everything.
Anyone else ever get that?.I did a pretty good job of faking it for the pictures though didn’t I?.
I had these (ridiculously easy to make!)capri curtains and this little rug too, which were OK, but I was over the red.
Still icky-feeling..It was time for the de-ickification (great word, right?!)
