You inspire me.
it definitely looks at its best now- lighter, brighter, and i am so glad you painted the mirror, even if there were people urging you not to. it's so much better painted!

It looks so nice with the lighter decor! By the way….I LOVE your Christmas tree skirt!! Where in the world did you find that? Did you make it? Have a happy new year!
Yes we need instructions on the tree skirt that you made. I love, love, love it! Pretty please??
How about a tutorial on your fabulous tree skirt??????
gorgeous living room!!
Love the changes!! Great job!
What a great transformation. I love seeing the progression and how you edited even more towards the end. It turned out perfect!
Stunning!
What a wonderful transformation of your living room!
I love seeing it all come together.

What a beautiful job you did, Marian! That room is so clean, airy, and chic looking now. Incredible transformation! I've learned – through gals like you – that less is more when it comes to small rooms. Declutter and focus on only the things that you really love… 🙂

How AMAZING!!! It looks so regal and elegant but cozy, too! I LOVE it!! It's really hard to believe it's the same room as the first picture!! Makes me want to ad long panel drapes like that to mine, and reupholster everything. So very nice!!! You are so encouraging!! Thank you!
O wow! That is a place I could easily spend a huge amount of time in! LOL VERY nice!
Positively beautiful! Thank you especially for showing the progression of the room. Too often people show the before and the after, like it all happened overnight, when in reality it's all a process.
Absolutely stunning. I'm shocked at the transformation. This is the first time that I've been to your blog – and I'm just … wow! Gorgeous. GORGEOUS! I'm definitely taking inspiration from this!
Yippppeeeeeee! I was thrilled to see my name revealed as one of the winners! This is only the second time I have won a blog-giveaway and I enter them ALL the time. I'm so so excited!! Oh – and I am absolutely IN LOVE with your finished living room. It is light and airy and beautiful. If it had a name, it would be called – Peace.
Gosh, that is one beautiful room. You do such an amazing job. I love the tree and the tree skirt! Gorgeous.
This is soo beautiful!!! I love all the details…amazing job!!! Enjoy every minute in your new beautiful room!
Hugs and love friend!

It is spec.tac.u.lar! I love it… Now it looks like it should grace the cover of a magazine…
Warm blessings,
Spencer
It certainly was worth the years of hardwork. Such a dramatic & cozy after.

I could never have seen what it looks like today by looking at the before. What an amazing transformation. It's a beautiful room.
I enjoyed your pics that showed the progression. Your room is so light, bright and cheery now! I love the way you talk about just whipping up drapes and reupholstering furniture, like it's something we all do every day! Ha ha! I wish I had your talents.
Your new look is just beautiful!!! I love how you slip covered the sofa. Was the ruffle at the bottom difficult? I'm thinking of trying out an ottoman.
Thanks ~
Jo
I ADORE your transformation!!
Thank you for showing us and
letting us know that you did
it all with awesome finds!!
xoxo,
Lori
Magnificent!!!!! You have given me hope for a transformation of my own dark livingroom. Do you have any evening-time pics of the livingroom after? I'm curious how you light the room – I need big help in that area.
I'm still trying to track down two of my winners who didn't have email address info. If you're Tonya(#106 comment) or Debb (#131 comment) please email me at snicketysnacks@ hotmail.com as soon as possible! Thank you!
Your room is beautiful! It's really an inspiration!
I love your living room, bright and beautiful. May I ask how you made the slip cover for your sofa? I just got a new sewing machine and that is a project on my list.
I adore your living room, it is so beautiful!
All the best in 2011!!!
Hugs, Cindy
Your room is really coming along. I really like the new ivory paint. Brings some real elegance to the room.
Debbie
I adore your beautiful living room and the photo of it I love best…the one with your little boy in it. :)))
Oh and I wanted to ask the color of your walls, please. I love the ivory but there's 19 million different shades and ….I need YOURS. :))
I love seeing the transformation stages! Now I know there is HOPE for me!!! LOL!

Beautiful Makeover! I love to see before and afters!
Looks so bright and charming!
Your living room is now gorgeous! I love all the changes you have made. How did you like having a live tree? Don't they smell great!?
Happy New Year!
~ Julie
It's truly unbelieveable that it's the same room. It looks so much smaller in the before pictures. I really like it with the lighter color on the wall. It's amazing what you've done, esp in such a small space.
Amazing B&A;! I adore everything… especially those made over chairs.
Oh and your tree looks gorgeous! I had my first 'real' tree this year and will be looking forward to you sharing how you made the tree skirt. I'd love to make one for next year:)

I just cannot stop looking at this room. It is simply perfect! I am new to reading your blog and am enjoying it so much. I wish you could come to Florida and help me with my house. If you ever hire out, please let me know!
