A Living Room MakeOver!

For about a year now, I have had my eye on some furniture I really wanted. We finally decided after 7 years we should retire our furniture and start over. Our old stuff was cute-It was totally me and my husband was gracious enough to allow me floral couches for the last 7 years. Comfort is all that mattered to him! I wanted something new and a totally different look. I wanted our living room to be warmer and a cozy place to relax. We saved up the money and went to town! We DESPERATLY needed new carpet! Builder grade carpet in a house for 7 years with high traffic=really bad! We picked out some great carpet and tile for our entry way. Im slowing doing away with all Lenoliuium (sp?) as I first all of hate the look but it's a pain to clean! We extended the entry which is great because we had like room for one person to stand before. Painted, got new furniture, a new tv, tv stand and the whole bit! Im even changing over some pictures to new frames. It's funny...I've always been a girl who loves the walls packed with pictuers and stuff..but all of the sudden i just wanted Simolicity. Im tired of clutter! I will post some after photos. Im so upset I didn't take many before photos but some of you may have seen our house before. Take a Look...It's still not done so stay tuned.
