Living Room Before Take 2

The pictures from my earlier living room post were  pre living with the boyfriend.  Since then we have moved around some furniture, my mom has reclaimed some of the pieces she lent me, and we have bought a new couch and rug.



 Some time in 2008:
 Now:


 Here are a few close ups:
New couch!  It needs to be accessorized.  We are using stuff we had around the house for now but I just bought two pillows from Joss and Main.  Can't wait for them to arrive!

The desk I had in high school.  That is staying in the room because I love it and it holds a ton of stuff.  We need to figure out a permanent place for the whiskey bottles because they are all over the place!

Ugly entertainment center.  Needs to be replaced.  

Oxblood leather chair.  Found this at a thrift store a few years ago for $80!


It may appear that things are clean and organized but now I have to show you the other angle in the room:
This used to be the dining area.  Now it holds everything we haven't figured out where to put, craft projects, and stuff from me for work.  Every time we visit the boyfriend's mother, she gives him more of his stuff.  Even after almost three years, we are still figuring out what to do with his stuff.  

You can't even see all the boxes in this picture.  

To Do:
1. New pillows for couch- ordered two from Joss and Main.  Need to find some green ones too.
2. New throw for couch
3. New rug
4. Replace entertainment center
5. Figure out what to do about dining area
6. Come up with permanent home for whiskey bottles
7. Find bigger coffee table
