Did the glossing around the window frame and have spent most of today sorting the living room out. Will paint the final bit when I can get to it hahah.
How to redecorate my living room
It made me 
"I am so happy with my living room now"
How I did it: I got the idea in my head that I wanted to redecorate my living room and so I did it! and on a budget too :) my husband wanted a leather couch and I wanted a cloth one, so we compromised, he got a leather love seat and I got a cloth loveseat. Since there are just the two of us we dont need a big couch so it worked out perfect. I got throw pillows to match his and vice versa to match mine, so they go great together. Also we found them for a GREAT price.
I bought some leaning book cases from my aunt that we put on each side of our tv armoire. We put pictures, books and a lamp on them.
I found my coffee table at a consignment store for $2.00 as well as an old milk bottle that I use as a vase. We rearranged all our knick-knacks and now the room looks great :)

Myself and a few friends did the majority of the painting and gloss work yesterday. There’s a tiny bit left around the fish tank and the window frame to do and then it’s the mammoth task of putting everything back where it was. :P

This weekend I finished everything I could do myself…
I painted everything… Cleaned up my mess. Got a flatscreen TV (I have a very little living room and this will free up a lot of space… And it was on sale!)
Cleaned the kitchen of dust…
Now I just need my couch. I wanted to have all this done before the couch was delivered.
My boyfriend is also putting shelves in the closet for the dvd player and FIOS box and all that so it will look neat.
To Do:
Get couch delivered
Veg out (technically I did this yesterday, but I want to do this on my new couch)

It looks like a disaster. Like a really back home improvement show.
There is dust everywhere from taking the texture off the ceiling and sanding down the wood paneling. Pieces of plaster and brick that fell out of the wall when my boyfriend was doing the electrical work.
Apparently in the wall, there was a major fire hazard in the wiring that the boyfriend found. That could have been very very bad.
I still need to finish sanding the walls (so I can stain it) and the ceiling so it is smooth. Then clean up dust, and paint.
Deep breathes. I can do it.
