Decorating a Brown Living Room or Sofa

written by Lauren

I like to keep my home's living room light, bright and colorful for the fall to combat the shorter days!

My living room features a brown sofa. I find that the color of the sofa is quite versatile - I'm always changing its look simply by changing out its throw pillows. This is a recent photo of my sofa, with some of my DIY throw pillows. How to Decorate a Brown Sofa or Brown Living Room It turns out that a photo of my sofa was shared in a roundup on Shutterfly on 75 Enchanting Brown Living Room Ideas.

My Life Now … Currently

written by Lauren

my life now / currently - with all its ups and downs

  Every month and I, my friend, Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom, and I get together to each share what's going on in our lives. This week has been especially tough for me -- it didn't turn out as expected. My family had a trip to Disney World planned. But I had to cancel it for medical reasons.
