Living Room

I'm really into vintage furniture and home decor.  The last few years I've been pretty obsessed with mid-century modern designs; however, my tastes are evolving a little.  I still love all those Danish beauties, but now I'm starting to be a little more drawn to the Hollywood Regency look.  I think the two styles happen to mesh very well together and I'm super excited to give all my stuff a fresh take.

I'm crazy about this room I found at Desire to Inspire.  I love how light and airy it is with the splashes of blue, green, and yellow.  I think my vintage sofa could work with a similar styling.

I really love my 1961 Artbuilt sofa (in my current Milwaukee apartment).  I think that I could totally make it work in a bit more glamorous room. 

The fake Eames could be lightened up with a sheepskin throw, like this one featured on Apartment Therapy.

I also want to get a pair of matching regency style chairs.

These from Real Simple could easily be revamped thrift shop finds.  I want to find a pair at a flea market, Craigslist, or resale shop for cheap and spray paint them, then try my hand at reupholstering them myself.  My mom can do it, I should be able to, too!

I really want to paint the living room and dining room a light blue/grey/green color.  I've been thinking about it for a while and haven't gotten sick of the idea yet.  There are a ton of inspiring rooms out there.

I love how subtle the blue is in this room found at Decor Pad.

This cocktail table from Urban Outfitters would also be GREAT.

I need a smaller one than the one I have currently, because people coming in the front door have to walk through the middle of the living room to get to the rest of the house.  The coffee table I have is big and bulky and I feel like people would be hitting their shins on it all day.

I'm starting to get antsy.  I want my house and I want it now.
