Hey beautiful people! Hope you’re not sick of our home tour yet. We still have a six more rooms to show you this month, before we say goodbye to our home for good. Our kitchen and living room is where we spend the most time together as a family. It’s where we hang out with our little dude, watch shows together, eat together, play together, and spend time together. This is our happy place.
When we bought this home, this room was known as our Christmas room, haha! As much as I LOVE Christmas, the red and green had to go. As you can tell, the wainscoting was original to the home and it was definitely one of the things that sold us on the home, so it wasn’t going anywhere. The biggest thing that we did to this room was opening up a wall that divided the living room from the kitchen, right there to the right in the picture below. Once that wall was gone, we knew that all it required was a little new paint, flooring, and window treatments.

Like the rest of our rooms, we wanted to stay pretty simple and neutral. I am definitely a grey and blue girl for our home style. So of course, that was the color palette that we went for in the living room. The beautiful deep brown crown molding was original to the home. We did use Old English on all the woodwork to make it shine. My mother-in-law introduced me to it, and I now recommend to our clients and friends all the time. It is a godsend. We had a lot of nicks on the woodwork from scraping the popcorn off the ceiling and you wouldn’t believe what that stuff would do. Below is a list of where we got the rest of the goodies for our space.
