Our living room make over involved paint and a new couch and love seat. We chose Benjamin Moore's "Hillsborough Beige" which succeeded in giving the room a whole new look.

I still can't get over the teddy bears (I remember them from before), they were the fist thing that caught my eye! What a fun idea!
You did a great job! Very refreshing!
Looks amazing! The wall color alone made a huge difference! It warms up the room so much. I'm also a huge fan of Homegoods/Marshalls/TJmaxx : )
WOW -- You've transformed this room into a wonderful mix of traditional and fun, with pops of the modern -- I absolutely love it. I agree with Yvonne -- you've given it an upscale look. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing!

Impressive project! Looks great, I love the calm feeling your room now has. All of your little pretties have a much better background now.
Lovely!
I keep thinking I'd like a white room again, then posts like yours remind me of why I got tired of it.
