Room Makeover: Living With a Splash of Green

This living room makeover was done almost two years ago. I just woke up one morning and thought.. 'my living room is so boring and dull, it needs colour!' (much to my husbands despair I might add)! For all those who follow my blog, they will know just how much I love colour.
Fortunately for me, the timings of these thoughts couldn't have come at a better time! It was Spring season in the UK at the time, so all the vibrant, fresh colours that I would need for this makeover, were out and ready to buy in my local home departments stores. Yay!
Here is a BEFORE picture of my living room. Slightly embarrassed to share it, but I want you to get an idea of what I had mean by it needing an 'injection of colour'. It was all too dark , not the best decor for an an already dark and dreary UK
I also hacked the IKEA EXPEDIT Cubes to make a seating in the dining corner. I used old green curtains to make the seating cover. I just love IKEA hacks! You can see more of my IKEA HACKS here .
Enjoyed the project?

Welcome to the Woods on Mar 07, 2016You did an awesome job! I'm considering installing a faux fireplace similar to yours so it was cool to see some inspiration. I was especially impressed with your IKEA hack bench, DIY cushion, and painted chair. You have so much talent!
