Parade Of Homes: Inspiring Living Rooms

We are in the middle of changing our living room. 
You can see what we've done so far
The Salt Lake Parade Of Homes was back in August and I found some very "inspiring" living rooms!
Here are a few of my favorites...
 This living room is neutral, yet bright!  I loved the furniture too...the chairs are adorable!
 The fireplace was AMAZING!!  
The woodwork is so beautiful and I love the built in bookcases on each side.
 I like the bright colors in this room.  Once again, the couch and cute chairs made the room! I'm also surprised by the blue color of the fireplace, it's not traditional, but it looks pretty.
 I loved the vaulted ceilings and windows in this room!  
The tufted couches and the striped chair in the corner were so dreamy!  If it was in the budget for new living room furniture, this is the style I would pick!
 I thought the accessories in this room were great! 
 The pillows pulled the room together and brightened up the neutral couch.
 This was a long narrow living room and they really used the space well. 
 I love how they put the bench as a "center piece" between the two coffee tables and couches.  
The fireplace was also very unique!
 This room felt a little more modern.  I really liked the coffee table and mirror.  
I loved the pillows in this room too.  
They are such a great accessory because they are easy to change, but can change the whole style of a room!
This living room feels cozy!
I loved the planked fireplace with the shelving on the sides, it's so charming!
This room was so pretty!  I love how it had the beach house feel, but was still elegant!
 I thought the mantel on this fireplace was gorgeous!  
I LOVED the windows on each side of the fireplace too, I wish it wasn't getting dark when we were there, so you could see the view of the mountains out on the deck...beautiful!
I also loved this fun color combination with the orange and black patterned pillows.  It was different, yet it all pulled together!
I hope you have been "inspired" by these living rooms, I think they were all so beautiful!
I've been trying to get rid of all the "brown" in my living room. 
Here is what it looked like a few months ago...
 We painted the walls and added new trim.  Then this last weekend, I painted the mirror you see in the picture above a gray color. 
I also found a clock to go above my piano. It was the perfect shape and style, just the wrong color.  I also sprayed it gray and sanded the edges to give it an antique look. 
It's starting to come together!  
I hope to show you next week!

  1. A lot of interesting living rooms. My favorite is the one with the beach house look and still elegant, as you put it.

  2. Great home living furniture ideas. To add more, the look of a living room will depend on how you design and your theme is. You can put a living room furniture store Manila to keep it alive such as couch, chairs, tables, lamps, a television, curtains and pictures. Currently, interior desingner and even simple home owners started using contemporary living furniture that could add genuine taste to one's home.
