Our Small So California Living Room

OK, here are some photos I took tonight of the furniture that now sits in my teeny-tiny living room. The lamp tables are snug against the corners. This is my longest wall!

A closer view of the sofa and coffee table. If you can't tell from the photos, the color of the fabric is a pale sage green. The floral pattern is embossed. These pieces are on loan from a friend -- she downsized to a smaller home and didn't want to sell her living room pieces, so I'm storing and using them. How great is that?
This is the wall next to my front door. Just enough room for the loveseat...

You can see my front door and window in this one...talk about a snug fit!
Here is a corner view. ..
Here's a view of the other corner...the TV just barely fits on the wall opposite the loveseat....

So, what do you think? It's a pretty generic look right now. I'll have to personalize it by adding some shabby, chic and cottagey throw pillows. I'd like to add a couple of cozy quilted throws...maybe some silk roses in a shabby little pot, and some of my cottage books on the coffee table? Over the sofa I'd like to find a window paned mirror, and a nice shelf underneath that. I'll just make that wall say "cottage" if it the last thing I do! :-)

I'd like to add a nice, large area rug for a nice cozy, layered look. Also, some cottagey tab curtains. I'll hang some of my plates and platters, and some nice floral prints on the walls. I've got plenty of ideas but it'll take a little time. Please feel free to share some of your ideas with me!

Happy cottage blogging!
