T.G.I.T - Living Rooms

Thanks SOOO much to everybody who posted on my last entry. Your support is enormously appreciated! It may be a rough ride for a bit, BUT:
I, Layla, do solemnly swear, to maintain a happy & healthy attitude and to continue to do my best to scatter joy & radiate love every step of the way! (Mental note: Read this post next month) :-)

Okay, now check out these Living Rooms! Can you say, "come in and kick your feet up" on this first one?? Wow! What a great shade of blue, and I just wanna touch that fireplace. Love those smooth stones!



And how about walking into this room, first thing in the morning.



I can almost feel what it would be like to have that glossy wood floor underfoot. Look at that beautiful pattern they painted on it! Genius!
And I adore their use of sisal, stone, raw wood and white slipcovers. If designed differently, it could've (unfortunately) become a pretty *serious* space, but the natural elements really help keep it comfy. Don't you think?




And between the floors, the ceiling, the amount of windows, and the shutter room-dividers, I'm not sure which element is my favorite in this space!
If I could have a space JUST to design Lettered Olive product in, THIS is what it would look like! (But, it would be inside of a red barn. And I would use different lighting, furniture and art.) :-)

Hi Layla, what fun to find your beautiful blog. I love that last living room, it's so sleek and airy and full of light. I especially love the poppin' orange and yellow Eames chairs in the background -- so mod!

Wow, I love the shutter room-dividers! I'm adding them to my dream house wish list. I enjoy your blog and have added it to my blog list.
