    Living Room Inspiration Ideas

    For those of you who follow me on Pinterest, you may have noticed my recent obsession with living rooms. Specifically, living rooms with a Rustic Industrial touch.

    Side note: Can I just tell you how excited I was when I finally realized that was an actual style! My dad’s been calling my taste “Industrial Trash Bin” for years, and come to find out, he wasn’t that far off the mark. 😉

    Back to the living rooms…I really want to revamp ours. We’ve lived here 5 years, and although I love the things I’ve managed to do (reupholstering the garage sale chair and the Craigslist chair, the slip-cover for the couch, the frame wall), it’s the stuff I haven’t done that’s driving me crazy. So, I’m looking for inspiration… Requirements so far:

    • Cowhide rug – the rancher’s daughter in me NEEDS it

     Industrial / Unique lighting

    • Industrial / Unique lighting

    • Lots of crazy drawers – my all time favorite furniture from Germany is probably out of reach, but a girl can dream…

     

    My hope is that with a little paint, creativity and a trip to IKEA, I could do my own version.

    • Finally, antlers. Kyle has a couple pair from his grandfather, and I am just ACHING to paint them!
