Have you come across any interesting home decor over the last few days?
I understand!
I found a few different options on end tables for my living room. It is hard to decide as I don't have a lot of room and I don't want the room to look too congested.
What kind of sofas do you have, and how many are there? This has a high impact on the congestion factor. An armless sectional might be a good option for you. Two loveseats are another possibility.
I have a sofa and loveseat. Maybe I should trade out the sofa for another loveseat, that might make some more room. I have been looking at area rugs as well and I can't seem to make up my mind.
A rug with light hues will help make the room feel more open. Look for rugs with lightweight materials, too. If you can find one that's large enough to cover the area of the room, this will also help avoid a cramped feeling.
That is a great idea. What type of materials should I look for that would be considered lightweight?
Seagrass and Jute are good options as they are durable without the weight of wool rugs, for example.
That is great info I will have to keep an eye out for those materials. I did just buy an outdoor rug that is made of plastic for my porch. I have the opposite problem on my porch as it looks so bare, I need to find some more items for the space.
Have you looked at getting a metal glider? This would be a great seating option for a porch. A sofa and two chairs is considered a standard combination for porch furniture.
I did look at a metal glider but it is actually too big for the space. I have two chairs but haven't seen a good sofa to use. I think I have enough seating on the porch but I need some other items to fill the space out. Maybe a type of water fountain would be nice.
