A Soft Neutral Living Room Makeover: a house log

Oh glad day! Blayne simply sent us the after pictures for her recent living room makeover and we could not be more excited to share them. You may remember that we whipped up this custom mood board for her a little over a month ago. Here is the before picture to refresh your memory:

And here is the mood board we whipped up for her (see more details here):

Here is the lighter and brighter after thanks to a new furniture arrangement, a blue fireplace accent wall, breezy curtains, a punchy graphic rug, and a few fabulous accessories:

We were especially inspired by Blayne’s request for a room that “feels beachy in the sense that you would feel like if you looked out the window you might see the ocean.” And this breezy bay of windows makes the room feel light and airy and oh so stunning. The fact that they are $9.99 Ikea panels paired with some discount store bamboo blinds is the icing on the cake.

Here is what Blayne had to say about her living room makeover:

“I was amazed at how much bigger and brighter it looks! And my husband loves it too. Yay! I was so excited to show it off that I invited some friends over last night. Everyone enjoyed it. A few people who had never been over before commented that they enjoyed the way the living room and bedroom were decorated (thanks The house team!). I am so glad to come home to this vivid room!” – Blayne

So what do you folks think? Did not Blayne do a steller job with her living room?! Oh and do you remember her bedroom makeover from a little while ago? It simply feels so good to assist such a lovely lady spiff up two of her rooms. Hooray for after pictures!

Update: We sadly can no longer find the time to take on client commissioned mood boards (we now whip up general inspiration boards instead) but if we ever reinstate them we will make a big announcement!
