Living Room Slowly but Surely
We got our Truman tables and I LOVE them. Here they are in the living room with our Overstock chairs!
The coffee table with our hand-me-down couch from Andy’s parents. What a hand-me-down, huh!?
You can see our black fireplace glass in this shot. I’ll post a pic of it lit up for you some day. Maybe when I finish knitting our Christmas stockings and hang them up (although there is no mantle so that will be something I’ll have to figure out).
Here are our awesome chairs!!! They are beautiful but very uncomfortable unless you put throw pillows on them. We already owned these teal, suede, down-filled guys from Target and I think they’re a great shape (tall rectangles) for the chairs and actually make them comfy. Our old Ikea rug currently resides under the chair. The jury is still out regarding its fate but I don’t think it looks bad there and I don’t want to buy anything to replace it right now. It’s a bit busy, but we’ll soon be starting a small construction job and I’m hoarding our money until that is over with.
The height of the side table is perfect for the chairs. The wood doesn’t match the chairs exactly, but you cannot tell normally. Obviously this picture was taken with a bright flash. So that’s your first glimpse into our new house with our stuff in it. What do you think?

Wow; that couch is a hand-me-down? Do tell Andy’s parents to send me some of their other hand-me-downs!
I think it looks just great so far! You seem to have an idea of what you like and don’t like (something that I don’t have yet) so I’m quite envious!
everything looks great. I like the rug under the chairs; think it shows them off well
Absolutely beautiful! Your home looks amazing!
I wonder if fishing wire suspended from the ceiling, taut with the mantle, would work. that way you’d have your stockings over the fireplace but they would appear to be floating.
