I had another consult with a client of mine. I had done a "room re-design" over a year ago. She was ready to paint and add some design elements to polish her family room. She did the "One Hour Fix", I basically gave a one hour consult of things she could finish on her own. A great option for those who don't want to spend a lot on a room.
The paint color we chose was Lowe's Oyster Shell. Its a really warm "greige" color. It is a cooler beige with a hint of gray to it. It is a was a perfect color to add to this room. We put up cream linen curtains with black details, which are a perfect shade against the walls.
The pillows chosen are mixed up of nuetrals with pops of red, paired perfectly with their olive courteroy sectional. The fun sunburst mirrors add a perfect amount of light to the focal wall, adding the right amount of pop with out being overwhelming to look at since its on the tv wall. A new entertainment stand was purchased that is the perfect scale and size for the recessed wall. We also didn't paint inside of the recessed area to add a little bit of interest. Had we painted inside it would have felt a lot darker. Its a nice contrast.
My client found a new fish tank in a nice black color. It was a lot cleaner look than the oak one that they had. And moving it into the corner serves as a pretty detail and also light in that darker area.
Mrs. G also needed an area for her desk and computer. So it was angled in the corner and fits perfectly in the unused area of the family room.

I really love this room. It is so calm and inviting, I know I'd want to plop down on that comfy sofa and watch a movie! Thankyou Mrs. G for allowing me to come decorate another room of your beautiful home!
This is the before picture when I did the room re-design. I had taken pieces she already had to make the room more eye pleasing and functional. But as you can see by the above picture, its nice to spend a little bit of money on paint and decor perfect for this space. It is polished and finished now, and I know my client loves her new family room!
