Beautiful window seat with a colorful thrown and stenciled pillows

Decorating a Living Room Bay Window

By

I received the pillows described in this post for free in exchange for my honest review. A few years ago my husband and I had a bay window installed in our living room. For a while, I was unsure as to how to dress up the window. I have been meaning to make a custom window seat cushion for the space, but haven't gotten around to it yet! In the meantime, I've found a much easier (and quicker) way to dress up a bay window. At first, I only had a simple cushion that I had sewed on the window seat. At the time, the cushion matched the color scheme of the curtains that I had in the Continue reading...

All opinions are mine alone. #GladeFineFragranceMist #CollectiveBias My living room is the first space guests see when entering my home. I like to have it at its best at all times. I recently decided to give my living room an inexpensive update for the new year. I’ve found several simple ways to freshen up the space without spending a lot of money. One way I create a new look is by updating the throw pillows on the sofa. I regularly sew easy budget envelope pillow covers for my sofa’s pillows. These throw Continue reading...

Easy Envelope Pillow Covers for Spring

Now that spring is almost here, I thought I'd share a past project here on Mom Home Guide that is a great way to update your space for spring -- easy envelope pillow covers. With minimal sewing skills and just a little cash, you can update the throw pillows in your living room family room. This post contains Amazon affiliate links. I got my new living room sofa a few years ago (before then, the room was nearly a blank room), and since then, I love dressing it up!

Chalk Painted Jewelry Chest

By

I am a Decorart blogger and received free product for the completion of this project. All opinions expressed in this post are 100% my own. As I plan out my projects for 2018, I thought I'd take the time to share one of my favorite past projects -- my chalk painted jewelry armoire. The jewelry chest belonged to my grandmother, and now that it has been repainted, it holds a place of honor in my home's upstairs hallway. Updating Furniture with Chalk Paint I never thought I'd refinish furniture -- I am more of an artsy craftsy person. But after using Americana Decor® Chalky Continue reading...
