Now that we’ve officially been living in our house for about 3 months, we’ve pinpointed a few things we love and a few things we don’t love about the current state of our house.  One of those things is the furniture layout in certain rooms…particularly the formal living room.  So, on a random Monday night, we decided to get going on a little rearranging.

We moved the piano out of the living room and into the foyer.  Now before all you musicians go telling me this is not the place for an instrument such as a piano, hold up. Neither of us play, and the piano is really just a sentimental item for us.  Plus, this is the only place for it right now. So that works for us.

I centered up the rug in front of the fireplace and moved the couch to the far wall opposite of the bay windows. The wingback chairs, which will be painted navy soon, are going across from the couch. There’s still A LOT to decide on, but it’s a start, and I’m already happier with the outcome. Plus, I can’t wait to get started on my gallery wall above the couch!

The rest of the room, however, is a complete and total wreck.

While we were at it, we moved a few things around in the newly painted dining room as well.  Here’s a sneak peek — the full reveal is coming soon! (Please excuse our dirty floors…the painters don’t like to wipe their feet!)
