Living room update

So here it is the chocolate brown living room. I'm still warming up to it. It is quite different from anything we have ever done before. We looked around for a big mirror to put above the couch, we couldn't find one large enough. So the hunt continues. The pictures above the couch are actually just pics we got printed from Costco for under $20.00. There is a few more things we would like to add to the room. So it is definitely a work in progress. I can sum up the whole process with this:

5 different gallons of paint- $???(I don't want to know).
3 different home improvement stores, gas and time -$??? (I still don't want to know).
1 Painted living room and a very sweet patient tired husband- priceless

Redecorating Rambling.....

Patrick and I are currently in the process of redecorating our living room. We are painting the walls brown. I've got a little thing for chocolate brown right now(as you can tell from my blog wallpaper). So after one failed paint color we think we've found the right one. It's been giving me a headache, It's a pretty big commitment to paint such a dark color. My inspiration comes from Better Homes and Gardens October 2008 article Triple Play pages 37-40 in case you get the mag. Once we have the furniture back in the room I'll give an update. I just hope it turns out like I want it too.
