One word "IKEA"!!!!

LOL

OMG the beauty of an IKEA house is insane!! Our house went from getto to WOOHOO I HAVE MONEY!!! lol Our place is soooooooo clean & the furnature (coffee table, end tables, rugs & candle holders) all work together. You can get them in different colours, including white which would look great in your home...

Heres a photo of our livingroom... We haven't replaced the couches yet as we're currently broke, but they will be Black leather when replaced... also ignore the blankets, as I sleep on the couch & forgot to put my bedding away before snapping the photo lol

Craftlady: As much as I would love to "hire" Catnapper to help, I'd have no money left in my budget for the furniture! I'm hoping she will give me a few "freebie" tips though ... which she has already put in one or two. Do you think if I send her a few more tabbies, she would accept that as payment????

King 2005 - I saw your new room in your other thread. It looks really nice! I love your wall color, but unfortunately I need to stick with my red right now! I like your table too!

Ally Cat's Mommy - That picture you posted is almost identical to what I started off with when we first built our house six years ago! Our furniture is Ashley and the same style and colors as this pic. In fact our walls were a light taupe as well. I can't believe I don't have any pictures, they must have all gotten lost on one of my old computers! Anyway, I am trying to also get away from the totally "matchy matchy" look, that way MAYBE I won't get tired of all of my furniture so quickly! I've made some horrible attempts to "change styles" while still using the same furniture. Let's just say, it did NOT work!

So, now I am looking for all new furniture ... couch / love-seat, tables, lamps, area rug. What I really need to know is WHAT COLOR sofa should I use with the red wall and the light ent. center?????????
