One Room Challenge Week 3 – All the Finds

October 18, 2017 by Ruthie 4 Comments

We are halfway through the One Room Challenge!  I can’t even believe it!  Today I’m going to share with you all the items that I have picked out for my living room reveal!  I’m obsessed with all of these items and I love how they are coming together to complete this room!  If you have missed the two previous weeks catch up below!

Week 1   |  Week 2

I have been obsessed with this rug for quite some time.  I love the colors and the traditional design.  Wayfair always has really great sales and I was lucky to score this rug for $212!!  That’s a steal for a large rug!  Thankfully they are having another rug sale right now and you can score it at a great price too!

This was the first piece of furniture I purchased for our “new” living room.  I wanted a new and beautiful ottoman to spice up the room and this was perfect!  I love the metallic finish base with the gray tufted top!  It looks stunning in the room as well!

The next major design element to this room was to find a new couch.  I have always wanted a Chesterfield sofa but they have always been out of my price range.  I am working closely with Lamps Plus right now and fell in love with this Christine Inked Velvet Tufted Sofa!  It was bold and I knew it would be perfect with the design I had in mind.  My two favorite things when it comes to a couch is tufting and nailhead trim!  Plus it’s sooooooo soft and comfy!

I have always wanted to have some type of acrylic furniture in my home.  I’ve always loved ghost chairs and I’ve seen some gorgeous acrylic console tables.  I knew I needed to have something acrylic in this room.  This room is very traditional but I definitely have pops of modern as well.  I fell in love with these nesting tables from Lamps Plus and snatched them up right away!

Now that I got an end table and couch from Lamps Plus…how about I get a lamp too!?  I can’t express how gorgeous this light is in person.  This picture doesn’t come close to doing it justice.  It’s large and beautiful and such a statement piece in my “new” living room.  Now I couldn’t find the exact chairs I purchased but this is pretty darn close.  I searched high and low online looking for some neutral but beautiful chairs for the living room.  I went to Home Goods and a few other stores and just wasn’t finding what I wanted for the price I needed.  My mom mentioned that I should try Costco.  I’ve never thought of Costco as a place to have hugely desirable furniture.  I thought I’d give it a try and I’m so glad I did!  I found two chairs that I fell in love with and they were each only $200!  Score!

I have used Carousel Designs for many areas of my home!  I love the quality of their drapes and their fabric choices are amazing!  I’m going to share more about these in a couple weeks but I went with a Shibori fabric and a denim vertical trim.  I’m so excited to see how they look in the room!

I have always had a mirror on the main wall in our living room.  I love how it reflects the light and also shows my beautiful entryway chandelier.  The mirror I had there just didn’t go with the style of the new room so I got this beauty for a great price at Lamps Plus.

Last but not least I wanted to replace the lamp on my end table.  I absolutely love my lamp as I redid it myself but again just didn’t end up working with the new style.  I found this Iron Nightlight Table Lamp on clearance on Lamps Plus.  I had never seen a lamp like this and thought it was so unique!
