Traditional Living Room Challenge

A good friend of mine recently moved into the new home that she and her husband built.  Eric and I went to see it for the first time a few weeks ago.   Her living room is an open concept with the kitchen.  It only has one solid wall on which their TV is mounted.  They have a natural stone fireplace in the corner of the room.  The walls are a warm beige with dark handscrapped hardwood floors. She mentioned that she might want to do a leather sectional, and my wheels started spinning.  She has very traditional taste and loves, loves the color red and other warm tones.  Quite a challenge since I love all things turquoise.  I played around for about an hour tonight and this is what I came up with~

**This is my first time building an Olioboard, so please forgive how amatuer it is.

It's certainly not professional quality, but it was a fun little game for me!

  1. I love that the chair you posted is made in the USA! Recently saw this eye opening video on Diane Sawyer's show. If each of us spend just $64 each year on something made in the USA, we would create 200,000 American jobs. http://abcnews.go.com/Business/MadeInAmerica/made-america-resource-guide-find-american-companies/story?id=13057404#.Tsk0TlZvG9J
