Our living room got a big makeover! We removed the false ceilings (apparently it was hip to have low ceilings in the 50's ???) along with 9 different layers of wall paper to reveal the original tall ceilings. We literally covered the entire room in white paint- I'm talking ceilings, walls, trim, and floors. All the white makes the perfect backdrop for our more colorful furniture and art. I love this room because it's bright, airy, and filled with all sorts of sentimental things that we've either inherited or made. BEFORE DURING AFTER ^^ Haha, I just noticed Jon's socks in the photo. What can I say? We live here... Sources:
couch (west elm old, but similar here) light fixture & bulbs (amazon) rug (wayfair) mauve chair (thrifted) white lamp (Ikea) green chairs, brass side tables (TV dinner trays, haha), brass lamp, coffee table, and record player stand are all inherited from my grandfather (some even from my great grandfather!)
