Modern Farmhouse Living Room

Our Home

24 Sep

This post is sponsored by Raymour + Flanigan. Thanks for supporting brands that I really love and that make this little blog of mine possible!

You guys… I have decorated for the first time in months! Life has been so crazy with a baby and I really haven’t had any time to focus on what the house looks like or any projects. I’m loving every minute of mom life, but I decided I wanted to redesign the living room a little bit. We weren’t really feeling our brown couches anymore and we needed more space as our family is growing. We thought it would be great to get a sectional and create a little bit more space for Layla’s toys. Let me give you a peek at what the living room looked like before.

Above is a peek of what it looked like last Christmas (9 months ago). And below is what it looks like now!

I am obsessed with our new space! We had the rug since February, but it looks so much better in this space. To recreate this living room space, we got a new couch, switched out the coffee table for the wicker ottoman, and put up family photos on the gallery wall. The gallery wall came in a kit and it was super easy to install. The wicker ottoman opens up and we can store toys in it. My favorite part of the whole makeover is the couch of course! If you’re a long time follower, you know how much I love Raymour + Flanigan’s furniture. We’ve partnered together a few times in the past, so I know the true quality of their furniture and what a great selection they have. They also have a budget and style for everyone.

We went to the local showroom to try out sectionals before deciding. There were two other couches we loved, but they were too big for our space. The one we got is called the daine sectional, and it’s awesome because you can customize the sectional to your space. You can take away or add to make it bigger or smaller, and you can add a chaise to it too if you wanted. The store associate helped us pick out which pieces were going to work with our measurements. I think it fits this space perfectly.

Last year, we got the fireplace tv console from Raymour + Flanigan too! It is the perfect touch of farmhouse to this modern vibe. And now look at all that room for my baby girl’s toys in our new space. I never thought I’d be happy at the sight of toys all over the living room. Oh how things change.

 

The new additions to the living room brighten up the space and really pulls together the rest of our home. I can’t wait to create more memories and snuggle up in this space with our family. I’m already looking forward to decorating for Christmas and cozying up by our little fireplace in this beautiful room of ours. I’d love to hear what you think of our new space!

xo,

A few things that make my heart happy these days: A few things that make my heart happy these days: 

Growing my very own sunflowers from seed 
Trying new recipes like this dill & fennel cheddar sourdough loaf 🤤🥖🌻 
Homeschooling my loves 

If 20 year old me could see me now, almost 30 and realizing.. these are the days ☀️
Gardening has brought such a peace to my life that Gardening has brought such a peace to my life that I never knew I needed. Growing up, I spent hours in my grandmother’s garden, eating carrots right from the ground and being fascinated with each bite. I started 4 years ago planting in one big raised bed, and every year I learn more. It’s such a challenge to garden, but there’s something about it that still fascinates me to this day.  It truly brings your family together to make an effort to connect with your food and nature. 

Thankful for Ant who helps without ever complaining to make this the beautiful garden I envisioned. I love watching our children eat a whole pound of strawberries or wipe out an entire trellis of snap peas without either making it into the house first. Planting seeds and weeding with the girls, teaching them every step of the way. Gardening has taught me to slow down a little more. 

Hoping to have a little farm stand to sell our veggies, eggs, kombucha, sourdough and more homemade goods sometime in the summer. ☀️🌻

I’ll never forget the days I begged and pleaded I’ll never forget the days I begged and pleaded with God for the things I have now 🙏🏼 thank you lord for these blessings ❤️❤️💙
one month ago I had the homebirth of my dreams ✨ one month ago I had the homebirth of my dreams ✨ after c-sections with layla & gabby, I fought hard for the birth that I wanted and deserved. 48 hours of back labor which was the worst pain I’ve ever had in my entire life, but it was worth every second to have the experience of giving birth peacefully in my bedroom. Anthony, my midwives, my sis and my doula were absolutely amazing. Dalton John was 9.10 pounds and two weeks overdue, he sure made me work for his arrival! It’s been a beautiful month with him by our side 💙 more pics to come!
