Sometimes I like to play if I had a million dollars, I might makeover my living room. Late at night I start scrolling through Pinterest and get lost for hours. The other day, a funky green tufted sofa caught my eye, and it got me thinking. That beauty would look mighty fine combo’d up with a pretty pink somethin’ somethin’. About 3 hours later, this is what I came up with…because when you’re unemployed, you have time to be creative and play around.
And now that we will all singing Barenaked Ladies for the remainder of the day, let’s gather up all our monopoly money, play pretend, and spend that paper.
MORE AFTER THE JUMP…
A funky bold chartreuse (that I’m pretty much obsessed with…it’s modular, lounge-y, and comes in every color under the sun), pretty pale pink, hits of gold and my favorite little Franco Albini stool. Yup, I went down the rabbit hole through twists and turns, and ultimately this is what I came up with.
Because I’m still having a love affair with the wallpaper in the basement bathroom, I couldn’t resist adding the metallic color way of the palms in this moodboard. Although, all that shine might be a bit much for an entire room. I’m thinking just one accent wall would be a statement maker…meh, depends on the space I guess.
1- Metallic Palm Frond Wallpaper | 2- Pretty Pink Sofa | 3- Fancy Vintage Mirror | 4- Abstract Wall Art | 5- Chartreuse Sofa | 6- Nubby Pillow | 7- Black & White Pillow | 8- Wrap Bench | 9- Gold Vessel | 10- Black & White Vessel | 11- Franco Ottoman | 12- Ivory Area Rug
I doubt this space will ever come to fruition, but maybe you’ll find something you love, have to have, and it eventually lands in your room. Do you ever play pretend like this?
As soon as the hubs gets hit by a bus, I’m taking the insurance money & having you re-do my living room!
Bahahahahaha, well, let’s hope that doesn’t happen =) LOL
This is my favorite game to play!! I also like pretend planning trips that have no budget!
I’m so glad I’m not the only one!
I really like your choices above. They are fun, and unique, and are my favorite type of decorations. I really like the mirror and vases you chose! Always have been a big fan of mirrors and vases. They really make a room look great!
That mirror is definitely one of my favorites!
I’m in love with this style but really this table is just stunning! You chose great details that look awesome when put together and are really funny.
Thanks Liam! Maybe someday I’ll actually make it real =)
This living room is looking really great with these beautiful decor items. I love all these decor items and especially the wrap bench the most. Thanks for sharing your ideas and inspiration!
I play this game all the time! Someday, I might have the money to actually make some of these designs ‘real’. But, for now, I’ll enjoy just designing the space. I love your mood board, by the way.
Love your style. I like your pink green modern living room.
Really good choices! You have a wonderful taste to decoration!
The chartreuse sofa is such a statement piece. I love the color and the design. Kudos for the pretty choice of furniture pieces.
This living room is like a dream come true. Very well planned and pretended!! I can use some of these ideas in my room. Thanks
