Playing house

Curious to see what we're filling our big, empty house with?

Living room furniture!

We got the entire set: the couch, loveseat, chair, and ottoman. It was worth the 4-hour trip to Woodland, MS - the perfect couch at such a wonderfully low price! It isn't here yet, but should arrive in about the middle of November.

Of course, it's not as easy to find an area rug that has that same combination. It somehow seems wrong to spend the same amount of money on a rug as we did on the entire living room set. Ah well, here are the two rugs that I'm currently in love with. My all-time favorite rug. This rug is pretty, but doesn't have the flow of the first... it seems too geometric. This rug and this rug are close runners up. They are all gorgeous and match my color scheme perfectly.

I also have the color schemes picked out for the majority of the house, although Aaron refuses to let me pain until after Christmas... the big meanie. Here's my vision: The living room walls are a light shady green, with wine red and darker green accents. The dining room walls are wine red with light and darker shades of green accents. The kitchen will be a combination of these same colors. The master bedroom ... I have no idea, but the master bathroom I'd like in shades of purple with silver accents. The guest bedrooms I'd like to introduce some yellows, since that'll still go with the living room. All trim will be either white or a very light tan.
