ORC Week 5 – Lighting & Art for the living room

November 2, 2017

Yes, we’re going to talk about lighting again!  After last weeks Beauty & the Beast fail, I went to Menards of all places and found two choices.  The lantern and the sputnik/globe light. 

I also ordered these brass wall lamps for behind the sofa.    Like my screen shot?  I was almost out of battery, I had a text, some emails and instagram.  Still waiting for these puppies to arrive.

 

I also needed some artwork for above the sofa.  I was thinking maybe I’d make a sign so I grabbed one I had made in the dining room and asked my hubby to help me visualize what size I would need.   This is what I ended up with.  It’s hard to find good help nowadays.  He asked me to paint him like one of my french girls.  Oh Rose, stop.

 

Not really feeling the sign, so I ordered a bison print and we’ll see how that looks.  Also waiting for a few pillow covers but for the most part, we are done besides the lighting and art.  NEXT week, we’re wrapping a bow on this room and I will show it all to you!  Thank goodness because I have now painted my entryway, mudroom and today, I primed the interior of the front door.  Hoping to get both sides painted before next week but we’ll see.

Don’t forget to check out all the great rooms that are nearing completion over at Calling it Home with the featured designers and the participants!
