New furniture, artwork and a bold rug bring new life to this Oklahoma family's living area.
“We updated our living room by adding more color, texture, and vintage finds,” said West + Main agent and homeowner Angela Cheatwood. “Once we were done, our space had more color and personality. It’s much more us!”
"On a recent trip to Jackson, WY I walked past a store called Mountain Dandy every day," said Angela. "I loved the mix of new and vintage, the gallery walls, and the cozy textures. I knew it was time to revamp our living space."
"As soon as we moved into our home, we knew our couch wasn’t right for the space so I started there," explained Angela. "After weeks of searching we found the right furniture and moved on to the rug. I wanted something to add color and character while also tying in our green kitchen. It was a difficult search, but I’m glad I was patient! Our rug really makes the room."
“To add even more color, I used photos from our family trips and frames and artwork I already had around the house,” said Angela. “Not only did it really change the space, but now all of our wonderful memories are on display. We added the mantle for more warmth and the storage cabinet because of our 3 children. The finishing piece is a one-of-a-kind, vintage store poster from Lawton,Oklahoma. I really tried to use what we had already and find budget items for our extras.”
"Since we had to buy new furniture the majority of our budget went there. We did shop around online and found a great couch on sale!" said Angela. “Our kids LOVED the revamp. They were really excited to have a movie night and were big fans of all the color we added! My favorite part about our project is that our home feels more like us! It has personality now. I love getting home after a long day and enjoying time with our family and friends in this space.”
