I’ve been putting together some inspiration boards for my living room makeover.
Each house has a voice, hopefully it says a lot about those that live in it.
Here are four of the inspiration boards that I put together for our own family room.
ocean tones
I love the soothing tones of this color palette.
Cool tones can make a room look fresh and clean.

Three more to go!
earth tones
This color palette is a little brighter. The pops of red brings attention to the eye.
These greens have a yellow undertone that make the space warm and cozy,
bringing the outdoors into the indoors.

modern
Here the high contrast between black and white are balanced
by the neutral soft tones of grays and natural elements such as the baskets and plants.
The yellow gives the space a modern flair and a bold pop of color.
It is fun and young.

neutrals
This is so me!
I love that here is the texture instead of the color what makes this space interesting and warm.
Overlaying patterns and different tones of neutrals can be as striking as bold colors.

All four have the same sofa since I am not changing mine.
We love our couch and that is a part of the room that will stay for sure.
Keep in mind that the personal touches is what makes a house a home.
These are just combinations of colors and accessories that we like,
hopefully the final project is what we’ll love.

Where are the pillows from for the neutrals option? They are adorable.
Click on the link under the picture and you’ll find all of the items there.
I Love antique vintage furniture. But if I was picking out from this selection I would go with the, Modern. I love the pops of yellow in it.

I’m loving either the ocean or the neutrals for you. The ocean tones seem to fit your personality and flow with your kitchen, but so would the neutrals. The neutrals are what I’m heading towards myself in our house.
I would feel most comfortable in the “modern” room. The only thing I would change there is the curtains. I love stripes but I don’t see the gray in the room. I would go with a neutral ie: the tan, brown, cream or even the yellow depending on the wall color(call me safe). I really like the earth tones with the pops of red. I would need more color in here but the overall colors feel good. I guess you can tell I like color but either of these color pallets could easily be changed out by just changing the pillows and a few accessories. I always like to keep that i mind (I like changing my rooms out seasonally with pillows etc.)when I choose my basics for a room.
What color are you thinking for the walls? What do you have for flooring? Looking forward to seeing this room when you are finished with it. I’m sure it will be wonderful!! I really like that you are keeping your leather couch.
I like the neutral, but maybe add in a couple of the ocean tone items for color? I’m really in a add blue to every room mood 🙂
I like the nuetrals
Earth tones first , neutral second
I am usually drawn to the beachy tones, but in this case, I love the 4th one…just perfect! Do you know I made a pillow just like the ampersand one in this photo? I love the clear lamps, the patterned rug and the jute baskets!!!
Earth tones and neutral are my favs….I love a touch of red anywhere
All of them are great, but I like the neutral one! If I was shopping for me, this CA girl also loves the ocean pallete. 😉 Good luck!
