Living Room
Orleans Rug
I thought I could cross something off my list already, but now I’m not so sure.
The new rug in that last photo happens to be the Orleans Rug from Crate & Barrel. I’m smitten.
The problem is that it’s not really big enough for the living room.
It would be gorgeous in the 8×10 size, but [...]
The Living Room: A 3D Rendering
Wow. Um. This may be the dorkiest thing I’ve done yet.
I’ve created a 3D rendering of my living room (to scale), which I populated with furniture, animated, set to music, and uploaded to YouTube.
Enjoy:
My, What a GIANT TV You Have!
My sister-in-law called to see if we wanted their plasma television, since her husband had just bought a new one. How generous (thank you)! Brandon was very excited, and we got the new TV today.
It’s HUGE (a 42 inch screen).
Unfortunately, the new TV is actually wider than the stand we have. It [...]
Tao Console Table
I’m trying to think of a space for this table from Room and Board.
It would fit in with our home, but I don’t know where it will fit in our home!
We do need a spot to put our mail, keys, spare change, and the like. Our home doesn’t have a true entryway (the one [...]
Brandon’s Office, Updated
I made just a few changes to Brandon’s office…
First, a big thank you to everyone for your input (White Molded Chairs)! We chose option #3, and the old broken chair was replaced with IKEA’s Jakob swivel chair. As I had mentioned before, this isn’t a true home office – Brandon only sits there [...]
Six Months
As of today, we have been in our new home for six months! We closed on the house and moved in on February 1, during the coldest weekend of the 2006-2007 winter (that was fun).
We’ve painted almost every room, remodeled the kitchen (and learned how to tile in the process), tore up the carpet [...]
The TeeVee
We don’t have a family room, or a den, or a finished basement. We do have a living room, and we do most of our living in that room (haha), and that includes watching television. The floor plan is a little limiting – there is really only one spot where the TV can go [...]
Maybe this one?
I know I should do something long and rectangular over the sofa, but what do you think about this?
(artist’s rendering, haha)
I’ve wanted it for the last year or so, and I’ve just ordered it. It’s 3′x3′, and it’s made of fabric (hand sewn!). It’s from Dream of Stars. I love it so [...]
