Well, lucky me, I now have it hanging in our living room! Sam decided he didn't want pictures, he wanted art, to go above our couch. So, months ago I started the search to find the perfect piece of "art" to join our home. One day, I found a painting online that I just loved. The colors were perfect, the size was perfect, the design was perfect. The price, not so perfect. I kept searching but just couldn't get that one painting out of my head. Finally, a little stroke of inspiration hit me and I asked my wonderfully talented sister-in-law, Jenny, if she wouldn't mind copying the painting for me. (Jenny is a super talented artist and even teaches art). She was actually thrilled when I asked and said she loves projects but was short on ideas. Glad I could help :). Next thing I know Jenny sends me pictures of a 3'x4' canvas with her gorgeous art on, and it's even better than what I had picked! It was shipped from her home in San Fran and now it's hanging above our couch.THANK YOU JENNY!!!
One of my Christmas gifts was the fun zebra ottoman; now our living room is starting to piece together!
A few weeks ago Sam and I went to the beloved Pottery Barn and purchased a new TV stand. Thanks to it being a floor model and on sale, plus finding we had a chunk of leftover store credit from our wedding, we got a steal of a deal for it!
And that's the Nielsen living room for ya:
Next on the list, pillows!
