INSPIRATION: Rustic Cottage Living Room
So did you get it done?? All of the Christmas decorations down… put all of the presents away… cleaned the house real good… Yeah, me neither. But when I do {next weekend I swear!!} it’s going to feel sooo good to start fresh. I love how “uncluttered” the living room feels after that tree comes down, I always forget that along with the warmth & coziness of Christmas decor comes a lot of “stuff”. It’s then that I start to feel INSPIRED to do something new to the house. A new wall hanging, maybe… or even just a few new pillows to freshen up the look of the living room.
I LOVE the living room {BELOW}, mostly because it is full of all of the things that the homeowner loves ~ souvenirs from travels, a comfortable sofa and the perfect antique chairs.
