Great Room: Inspiration Corkboard

My mind has been in overdrive lately. Inspired by the outcome of our finished master bathroom, I am feeling motivated to move onto another project... and one room at a time, get this house of ours finished. I would love to get the bulk of the work done before baby #2 gets here in June. I have my work cut out for me y'all. But the good news is that at least I am putting together a vision for each room (except for the kitchen/dining room, which is giving me major decorator's block).

So first things first... here is what I am thinking for the great room.

Sofas by Ballard Designs
Artwork by Pottery Barn

A lot of these pieces are out of our price range, and a lot of them are just close to what we already have. so this is simply a mood board to give you (and my hubby) a feel for what I am thinking. I am really wanting to add in some more modern looks (i.e. curtains) to contrast and compliment the vintage (i.e. TV stand). We already have white and taupe incorporated into the room, so now I am looking to add charcoal gray and navy blue.

We were just given a 2nd chair and a half from a relative (currently covered in maroon floral fabric), that I am planning to slipcover in gray. And we have white sheer curtains that I am planning to layer behind some new modern white and navy panels. I also want to incorporate navy into the room with throw pillows and some new artwork. I am thinking white gallery shelves (probably from IKEA) above our white sectional (also from IKEA).

So there you have it. My best intentions laid forward. Now let's see how it all pans out. First order of business... buying fabric and sewing my own window panels (since I can't seem to find anything out there that's just right). Here goes nothin'!
