It's been two years already since our living room got its major makeover. I have enjoyed this room a lot and I wasn't looking to bring any change to it, yet. Well, not with the long list of stuff I need to do in other parts of our home, but somehow a little refresher happened last week by simply switching a single element in it.
I was buying some clothing for my son at TJ Maxx and then, when looking through the home section I spotted this set of striped curtains and thought, they might look good in our living room.
Well, yep. I was right.
They not only look good, but they give the room a completely new look!
The curtains are well done, they're Tommy Hilfiger 100% cotton, rod pocket modern window drapes. The set of two 50 x 96-inch curtains was only 25.

The curtains alone changed the look of the room, but they made me go and add a few other elements like fresh flowers. Love me some hydrangeas!
And an old element that I brought down from my son's room.
I'm delighted with this simple makeover. So easy!!

Your room was already gorgeous but I love the way the new curtains add extra life to the space! Of course, I love blue and white too... Have a great week!

Thanks Shelley! Yes, I know you love this palette. This room goes perfectly with your dining room. ;) 💙
DeleteThose drapes are amazing and what a fabulous addition to the living room. It looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLOVE this room! The new drapes and pillow covers really make an amazing change. I have 3 seasonal changes for my living room - pillow covers (don't need to store full pillows!), books and decorative touches in the new color pallette, and a throw if appropriate. My background is neutral grey with pops of turquoise, so summer is navy, lime and turquoise; fall is turquoise with touches of coral; winter is white and grey with lots of texture. Easy changes and I don't get bored. Thanks for all your hard work on this blog - I love reading each post!
ReplyDeleteI love how bold yet simple these curtains are! Right now I have some denim (very faded from the bring sunlight) but I may see if I can find something a little brighter. Thanks for the inspiration! (I love TJMaxx!)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful updates! I can't get over the price of the curtains!
