Family Room Updates

It seems like our family room is ever evolving.  It was actually the first room I redid while blogging.  I've recently added some new accessories.  My sister Ivette decided to give me a gift as a thank you for redoing her apartment.  I told her she was ridiculous and that all her projects made for some good blogging content.  That's enough of a thank you.  However, she insisted.  Well, I happily obliged.  She bought me the Gaser Rug from Ikea. It's a grey, really high pile rug. It feels delicious underfoot and I'm loving it.  Our last rug was a creamy white Ikea Vitten rug, which we loved for a good two years.  It, however, was looking really dingy.  So a new rug was very welcome.  Thanks Ivette!

Last week, my mom,  sister Jessica, and I headed to Ikea.  I bought the Eivor throw. I am loving anything black and white stripes and I had to have it.

I also bought the Gurli throw as an everyday comfy throw.  I've already taken a few naps with it and I love it. 

Here's another angle of the room.

Here's a close up of the rug.  It has grey and white threads that give it a great texture.

Here you can see my flower pouf in this angle.

Of course, for those who haven't been reading for long, a reminder of our family room when we bought the house.

My house seems to be always changing, but I love it that way.  I guess that's why I took up blogging.
