Check out my tour our home posts!
One of the selling points of our home when we purchased it was the amazing screened in porch which was large and beautiful. As you may see on social media, we spend a lot of time in the porch in the Spring, Summer, and Fall.
The porch was added onto the house back in the 90's and while it's still in EXCELLENT shape, I do have 4 dogs and unfortunately we realized some of them were sneaking and peeing on the area rug we had under the table. We realized that can be a problem in the long run because the wood boards underneath can start rotting away. So the project began.
I love before and after pictures of updates around the house so today I wanted to share with you my small updates to our living room. Before we had a coffee table that was given to us by a friend and then we had a huge area rug.
So I went out to Ross the one day and found the adorable rug above for just $50! It's much smaller in size but it actually is even prettier and more functional than us having a big rug. And then I went to Target and found the most adorable storage ottoman to use as a coffee table. Our other coffee table will be used in the basement living area.
I think the darker color of the rug and the darker and smaller sized ottoman makes the room look bigger and more put together!
