Home Decor: Living Room

6.12.2014

So a few weeks ago I mentioned I was going to share a home decor so here it is.  Sorry it took me a while but the lighting in my apartment is really bad since I am surrounded by trees and am lucky when I can get some sunshine in here.  

Nether the less here is a post of my living room.  This area is always on constant change.  I do not like to keep things in the same place for months and months. I have always believed that your surroundings should inspire you and that is exactly what I am trying to achieve in my place.  

Our apartment is small therefore I do not want to just add thing to fill up space.  Instead I take my time finding the right pieces that go with the theme am going for.  

Now lets talk about my coffee table.  Its from Ikea we got it a little less than a year ago online.  { CLICK HERE } I love that it has extra space underneath so I can place thing Ismael uses but I do not like to display; like his remote controls.  Quality is great although I want to paint it white, but.... that project will have to wait. 

On my tray I have several things but not too many.  I hate over decorating and I rather keep things simple but shick.  Adding a tray to your coffee table will soften the look and its a very affordable way to decorate.  It makes things look cleaner.  You can find them at TjMaxx, Home Goods, even Target at a good price.  It took me a good month and a half to find this one ....


Our couch is actually a great find from { Craigslist }. I love loveeee craigslist! Its my first "go to" place to  look for house items.  I highly recommend you take a look. 

 The "love" throw pillow is from {Society6 } and the black and white chevron was made by my sister for me.  The lantern is from Home goods and inside I have a $3 candle from Target that sadly does not smell at all.  Ignore the green sticks in the back they are used for pictures only.  The lamp is from Walmart.  

Ismael and I like for our place to feel cozzy and inviting.  Candles and warm blankets are a must.  Right now am working on putting together some wall art with frames that will go above the couch.  I will show once I have it set and complete. 

Hope you enjoyed taking a peek into my place and get inspired to decor your place giving it your own twist.  :)
