This used to be my dining room, but we had to reconfigure our living areas, so this is a much smaller space than we used to have. Click on the individual photos for a closer view.

Living Room View

Forgot to number the large picture on left, it was $10 at HES, I just need to finish painting the frame white.
TV cabinet is about 12 years old, I painted it white about 5 years ago. Originally $129.
Basket & Quilt - basket was $7 and it's filled with kids books, quilt from MIL.
Curtains in the windows are from Ikea, about $30 for all.

Desk View in Living Room

Teapot on desk was $7.99 but I had to move it and the glass jars so the baby wouldn't break them. This is also a better shot of our fake paneling.

Main View A

1. Coral plates - plastic plates from Homegoods 1.99 each
2. Sectional couch - recently purchased from Ikea for $899, but they gave us a gift card for $150, so I didn't feel so bad about spending the money. With gift card I purchased the slipcover you see here. My other one is lovely and white.
3. Ottoman is old...about 11 years...$0, rug from Homegoods $29, ruffle from baby crib $0, white blanket from the as-is section at Ikea for $10, tray was $7.99 from Target about 5 yrs. ago, various books, shell was free, and the "frog" was $4.95 from a thrift store.
4. Lamp - a converted oil lamp w/ shade I got at Hughes Estate Sales (HES) for $20 (adore it!)
5. White folding chair from Homegoods for $17 (reg. $79! who pays that?)
6. Great cottage sketch in gold frame - HES $18
7. Pillows - orange was free, aqua & brown were $8 for two each at Homegoods.
8. Aqua beach sign was $12.99 from Homegoods, shelf it's sitting on is from Ikea for $6. The orange fish tile above it was a gift.
9. Not sure what these are called, pelmets? but we recycled from someone else's house, so free.
10. Vanity desk from my mom, she paid $75, I just painted it aqua for $4.
11. This is to point out the wall paneling, it's fake! We made it ourselves, about $40 for entire room. (Saw how to do it on Changing Rooms).
12. Flooring throughout is from Ikea for $1.29 a squarefoot.

Table View B
1. Got this table as a birthday present used gift card at Homegoods.
2. Flowers on sale at Joann Fabrics - $8
3. Little silver box - from HES $6
4. Three books about shells, herbs, and insects $6 at Marshalls.
And that's an Anthropology bowl on the books, a gift of measuring cups, this is the cup size.

Not showing: silk flower arrangement on top of tv cabinet $30 (from HES).
Light fixture $6 from Osh.

I just bought a little gold frame with a gold bee inside for $3.95 (yesterday), and I am hanging up another shelf under the giant picture, so that'll be another $6 (already purchased from Ikea).

Total for this space, which is 12 ft. by 12 ft is: $1343.00

So tell me what you think of my iddy biddy living room...I tried my best!
One day soon we'll have a normal living room in a much bigger house.
One day...Thanks for visiting, can't wait to see your spaces!
