A Living Room Makeover

 

I recently came across this sunny living room makeover on Facebook, and since we all love a good before and after, I asked Amy if I could share on my blog. . .  This space was previously used for toy storage, but Swoon Interiors transformed it into a pretty, yet still family-friendly space.

I asked Amy to share her sources for designing this room without breaking the bank:

“To achieve this look on a budget, I shopped around big box stores, West Elm, Macy’s, Home Decorators, Ballard, Wisteria, to find pieces that had a similar look to some of my favorite high-end pieces ... a mirrored table, wing-back chairs, a tufted sofa, a geometric rug. I designed the curtains through Village Workroom, which were surprising affordable, yet, I think, totally make the room. Then, of course, I turned to Etsy to find pillows made from designer fabrics and unique artwork.

Finally, I shopped flea markets to find some of the fun accessories. My client and her husband did the painting and hung the curtain rods.  And, she enlisted her dad to help give an old armoire new life with several coats of white paint ... so it was a family affair!”      Amy Tausk, Swoon Interiors
