Do-Over for the front room

OK so few things in our home can survive Jayden and our front room is the first to be completely destroyed! I guess after 7 years, it was coming eventually, but it was helped along with him spraying Pam on the carpet and then bleaching it with hand sanitizer. We decided to get some new furniture...a little smaller that will make the room look bigger. OK, so here is the CAD drawing of our plan. We'll probably go a little lighter on the floor than this, but this is the general idea.


here is the view from the front door.

So on Saturday Chris and I went shopping...or looking at least...with all 4 kids. It wasn't too bad...until Jayden peed his pants in the middle of the 2nd store. So that put an abrupt end to our afternoon. Anyway...here's what we found. ABOVE: this is the couch we're thinking. it is kind of distressed or worn looking and a dark brown. I really like it. it doesn't sit off the floor as high as I'd like, but this is the clearance stuff...the new stuff is way TOO expensive.

this is the chair we're thinking...only orange. it's pretty small and it ought to fit in there pretty well, or we ought to be able to fit two of them in the room.
here's what the orange looks like...they let us take the pillows home to compare.
here's the green and the orange...

anyway...so that's our project...we'll go get the flooring in a week or so and then pull up the carpet and put the floor in...I'm EXCITED about our new look!
