Re-Styled Living Room for Fall

This morning, I woke up in one of those moods to rearrange everything.  I don’t know if it’s because the kids are back to school or because autumn is approaching.  Maybe it’s just because I was getting tired of the same look.  After all, my living room has looked the same for awhile.

BEFORE:

I have been thinking of moving the love seat to another room.

So, today I did it!

AFTER:

Basically, I just swapped the love seat with my two Pottery Barn seagrass chairs from the pool table room.

While I was at it, I also moved a few other things around.

To add some fall color I added a few seasonal accessories.  (Not sure if the cornucopia is staying in here for now)

Here is another angle…

BEFORE:

Wasn’t the light great that day?!

Here is another angle…

BEFORE:

Now that I see this picture with the red lamp back there, I am thinking I may move it back to this room.

AFTER:

With the seagrass chairs, it really does feel more open.

Also, I like the seagrass against this rug and the wood floor.

On this little table, I changed things around and added more color.

I like the way you can see out the window between the two chairs.

When the loveseat was there, it blocked too much light.

So overall, I think I am happy with the results. Sure, I did start to get a little nervous while I was doing it, but then I remembered I could always change it back!

Which look do you prefer – the restyled living room for fall or the old way?

  1. I love the new look, or coarse the old look was pretty too. I think what I like best about the new look is the "openess" that the two chairs allow for. You have beautiful windows, with a beautiful view that should not be blocked. I say great job!

  2. I think it looks nice both ways.. But being that you have such a beautiful view out your windows, I wouldn't want to block it.

  3. I like both!I also like your tropical palmettos — every room should have a little or a lot of fresh greens in it.Very "calypso" of you!Your seagrass chairs are wonderful and sit so nicely in front of your arch top bank of windows.:)Nice work!

  15. Hi! I just found your blog and so glad I did. I like the before look but I love the after arrangement. It is amazing what a little change can do to update and revive a room.The dark chairs give some weight and ground that side of the room. The whole room is really beautiful. I'll be back to see other changes you might do.——Shannon
