Our living room, also described as the "formal living room," is one of my favorite rooms in our home. I love most everything about it. Sometimes I like to chuckle when I say "living room" in describing this room, since we really don't do much living in it, to be totally honest. The holidays, and a handful of other occasions, but certainly not everyday!
The look and decor in here has not changed much over the years. Oh, I've changed out pillows and curtains a couple times, and edited the room with a few different accessories. But, for the most part this room has remained unchanged. This has me thinking "if it aint' broke, don't fix it?!" or "time for a change?!
Maybe it's that we have always been quite happy with it "as is," comfortable with the choices made for the furniture, and the decor. And, it is one room in our home that always stays clean. Love that!
