Soften the Look!

I purchased this wooden bench a long time ago, this was used to be on the terrace, then went to my lanai, and now on my living room. I attempted to place it there in preparation for my acquisition of a new L-shaped sofa and giving the old one to charity(hehehe). This is my first move since i have to have something to sit on when the perfect L-shaped sofa arrives. My mother will scold me if i dont have anything on the living room. I am so inlove with the wood but for sure, our butts are not. So i decided to soften the look by adding upholsteries and a few pillows.
Now, from hard, it drastically changed into a softer look. Its more comfortable and more living roomish in style. I am loving the look right now and i think im still contented with it.

How i wish i can have it that way forever...Oh that curtain should really make a statement, for now, its dull and lifeless. Think i should start thinking about my plans for the curtain! And i want it soon!

First and foremost, an L shape sofa gives you more actual sitting room than does a regular sofa. Why? Well, because there is simply more of it to sit on! There is the main section (much like a normal couch), then, there is the elbow (a very relaxing spot to sit, I might add..), and the rest of the L on the end...which is usually the size of at least a small loveseat. And since there is so much room on these pieces to sit, you can fit a lot more people onto an L shaped sofa like this than you could on a regular sofa. The next benefit that an L shape sofa gives us is the benefit of being more affordable. Now, at this, you ...

The Living Room Evolution...

Would you go for a distinct look?... Or something with comfort? Actually, the last pic was my new living room. Though i love the style of my old living room, with my hard wood japanese sofa, it compromise my need for comfort. Honestly, my mother is always complaining that the wood is so hard to sit in and was not too comfty. I bought the japanese sofa last November 2009 because im looking for a japanese themed living room, and voila, i found one and i know its a great deal. Ive been looking for the same kind for so long and this one is I thought perfect for the theme. Unfortunately, and by experience, i cannot last long sitting on the hardwood even if pillows are there for relieve, its just too hard and painful on the butt! So one time when i was in a mall just trying to look for a replacement, i saw this cream sofa made of real wood and leather. It was a perfect choice because it looks like the one in the 4th edition of real home living magazine, the color book which became my inspi...

It started

 And it started a week ago. For whatever it may cost, I had started it. There's a lot of problems initially but i really wanted to focus on the goal as i know preparation takes more time and effort. I want to enjoy the process and I don't want to be stressed about it. I'm so excited and i cannot contain it.
