My New but Old Living Room

You see, I again for the nth time disposed my sofa set, the wicker one. Actually my friend wants it and given the opportunity to have a new look on my home, I gave in. So I was left with my old sitting pieces and I was amazed that I still have the complete living room set up even if the wickered sofa was gone. So let me share with you my living room now.

I love how it actually looks now. I love that it highlights my wooden pieces and how coherent it is with my antique theme. The biggest piece, a three seater wooden sofa was given a softer look by bringing in some pillows and upholstery. Again, the centerpiece is my narra chest which is an antique from a flea shop in Makati. I love when the lampshade was lit up to bring warm and coziness to the area.

This is another view with a closer look at my sofa. I am glad that I chose that transparent lamp as not to cramp the space. The native bean bags are tucked underneath the sofa in case anyone wants to use it. Again, the only thing placed on my narra chest is my Nino which is the center of the season. The side table which is a Chinese end table is a nice addition. Displayed on the wall is my personal art to give the space my personal touch. Now, I am not planning to change the look of it because im proud of how I maintained the look, no one will noticed that I let go of my seating pieces because it still is one gorgeous living room.

The L shaped Sofa

An L shape sofa is a sofa that is literally designed in the shape of an L. It is designed like this for a number of reasons, and is a great choice for many different kinds of living rooms. Many people are buying L shaped sofas these days, in fact, for all of the benefits they offer. So, in case you have not been able to witness these benefits firsthand, here they are! 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.
