LCI: Family Room

by laura on June 29, 2009

One of the projects I worked on this past year was to update a traditional family room.

Instead of using a traditional coffee table we chose an upholstered tufted bench since the couple has a young child.

Adding a small detail onto a table skirt can make a big difference in the overall appearance.

The lilacs smelled as amazing as they look!

It looks great Laura. And from what I can make out, the bookcase and the grouping on the wall look terrific too. Beautiful table fabric!

Another great design success for you…the room and the detail on the table skirt are fabulous.

Beautiful, Laura!
Great job on the built-ins behind the couch. It’s not easy to get those groupings looking just right! At least not for me. We have a similar bookshelf arrangement in our living room and I keep reworking them…someday I’ll get them just right.
Also LOVE that table skirt– the detail AND the pleats! :-)
