Living Room Buys this Weekend!

I was watching TV yesterday and saw a commercial for Sticks 'N' Stuff. It's a furniture store (more like a huge warehouse!) based out of Alabama near downtown Nashville. I've been obsessed with finding great deals on furniture now that I'm busy trying to decorate my first home on the cheap, so I stopped by this afternoon and bought a couch and ottoman for our living room.

I've been wanting a gray couch for the living room, but I found an olive green modern looking couch at a great price ($299) that I couldn't pass up. They had a matching ottoman, but I passed on the matching olive green ottoman and went with an over-sized brown leather ottoman ($99) to break up all of the olive green. Here are a couple pictures.

$299


Matching Ottoman ($99) that I didn't purchase


Extra Large Bi-cast Ottoman
$99

In my previous post, I bought this bench last weekend that I will place in the living room next to the entry way. (not quite a foyer, but has a great nook for a bench!)



As you can see, our living room color scheme is a light olive green, tan and dark brown. In the living room our carpet is white and the walls are a faint light violet. These current colors are a little earthy for my taste, so I will need to find the perfect ascent chair(s), curtains, rug, end tables and accessories to complete the space.

I've registered for a antique looking clock from Target that we will place above the fireplace. Here's a picture of the space and clock.






Now this space needs a splash of color- I'm liking this chair from Target. I'll take two please! Seriously thinking about putting this chair on my registry. This chair will bring in a new vibrant color and tie everything together. Love...Love...Love!

I'll definitely be taking a trip to Ikea, Bed Bath and Beyond and Home Goods for curtains, rugs and accessories. Can't wait!
