Redo of the Redo.....

Okay I have finally found it.  I have been trying to create a certain feeling in my living room since the day we moved in. I feel I have finally achieved it.  I have found my feng shui! 
When I put the blue tones in my room after the chair redo, I felt like there was a little battle going on between the blues and the reds. 


I found my self unsettled as I walked passed the room.  I wanted a peaceful, joyful feeling in the room. So I went back to the drawing board. I went back to my original room inspiration.  Everything flows in the room below. Nothing to harsh or contrasting. Contrasting can be fun, but that was not the feeling I was going for. 


Inspiration for my living room.Country Living Magazine French country inspiration. 

I felt like something else was missing, and that was texture. I needed different textures and patterns and simply more cohesiveness. 

The final product is just below but first here are some before pictures:

This is the first decor of our room when we first moved in. Not bad. 

Of course this was the redo. I couldn't take the blues. 


Now for the final product. The Redo of the Redo. I wish I had a better camera because it looks so much better in person. I feel at peace and settled when I walk in the room.
  The changes I made were, covering the side table. I layered it with a cream fabric for the bottom, red and cream plaid for the middle, and a natural burlap on top. The burlap added a great new texture to the room.  I also added two stenciled burlap pillows to the room. Last but not least I added accessories. Accessories are like jewelry fro the room.    It is just what the room needed.





















I hope you enjoyed it! Come back soon!
