The goal of this makeover was to brighten the space and add some pops of color. This is Steffany’s living room, although gorgeous before, it was a little dark.
The room had dark floor boards, dark trim and dark blinds,
so the first step was to remove them.
We installed bead board planks in place of the dark wood under the fireplace.
Then added a board and batten wainscoting around the entire room. This is the same technique we used for my master bedroom makeover.
After caulking and painting, the wainscoting looks amazing! Instead of putting the dark blinds back, Steff and I made a trip to Ikea and found some curtains for the window. We also grabbed some fresh new pillow covers.

Looks gorgeous, right?! Did you catch the teal TV stand? And the painted teal frame? They really add that pop of color the room needed. The stand was a thrift store find! It was not that amazing teal when we bought it though, we’ll be sharing how we painted it soon!
