I spent Sunday rearranging the living room...
being an inexperienced blogger
I forgot to take before pictures...
duh?
as I started taking photos for this post
I began to notice how many things
in this room were
free!!!
We moved our awesomely free cabinet in hereit is hiding a little tv and lots of other _ _ _ _.
cabinet was FREE
it was in the basement of our first house
it was used to store tools...
I have never altered the color
it is just how we found it.
piano was craigslist FREE(there are lots of pianos free on CL)
still thinking of painting it...
what ya' think?
my fantastic yet finicky friend was junking it!
thank you!
couch was FREE!

I'm thinking you should entitle your post FREE AND FABULOUS! Everything looks great. I spent all of Saturday rearranging my living room, taking down dusty curtains to wash and hang back up again.
ReplyDeleteI would so buy a house for the porches! I loved the days when I could drop my kids at school and then come home to do whatever. It's how I painted this entire apartment, each room a different color, over a 2 week period, in between school runs and baseball practices.
Enjoy and have a great week. :) Tammy
beautiful, bravoo!:)

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely inviting room...my motto is, "If it's free, it's for me!" Love your free items :)
ReplyDeleteYou must be living right!! I love your colors...and I would paint the piano. My husband loves to pick out tunes by ear and I would love to find an old upright piano like that to paint white!
ReplyDeleteYou have some fantablulous friends girl! Love your happy, cozy room full of free, chippy lovely things. Oh, and I say paint the piano!

What a cozy room and to get so much free makes it even better. I love the color of the cabinet. I would paint the piano, or should I say I think the piano would look great painted. If it was a my house it would probably not get done. Love the room!
ReplyDeleteYour room is so gorgeous! I have many things free from my bro too as we didnt have much budget to buy furniture when we moved into the house. Lucky me, and lucky you! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, makes me want to scour Craigslist ads right now! I could always use some free stuff. ;)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!

Your room looks great and free doesn't get any better!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderfully sweet room! I can't believe some of the things you got for free... awesome! Those are some really great pieces! I'm going to be searching Craiglist for an old piano now. ;o) I don't know if I would paint it... it looks pretty great the way it is, and I like the mix of elements in the room. It gives it that cottagy look that I love. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

Personally, I like the color of the paint that's already there. I know bloggers tend to paint everything. But sometimes I just like to see the old grain of the wood. I love that cabinet!

Hi! I just saw you were following the farm, and wanted to make sure I came by to meet you!!
ReplyDeleteso glad I did...what a great room you have there...and I can't keep furniture in the same place for very long - it's free (lol) and it helps me clean!!

I adore your room and I love the way you put the painting low on the wall!! Happy White Wednesday.... This room belongs on the cover page of Romantic Home for sure. xoxo Lynn
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, Hilary!!!! I can't believe you got all those treasures for free, girl! The way you've placed them in your room is just beautiful, too. I love the color of the cabinet next to the pretty green walls. Love the whole room! I'm searching for one of those cabinets for my bedroom to hold our TV and such. I guess I'm off to look on Craigslist to see what goodies they have there! Happy WW to you, sweets!

ReplyDeleteFabulous! I just love your cabinet!
ReplyDeleteYour home is just beautiful. I could sit there all day, it is so calm. My father is from New England - and I often wonder how he could not miss it with all of his heart. I guess he became a Californian afterall. Your music is just precious.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderfully inviting room! I can't get over all the things you found for free. I think I lost count ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love free furniture too! You have been given some great pieces, but that gorgeous cabinet is awesome! Love how cozy your room is.
