I could not be more excited to share that in support of our living room makeover giveaway with Chris Loves Julia, we\u2019re partnering with an incredible furniture company to help make our functional space & seating dreams a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After finding them online and feeling so super impressed with their customization, upholstery, and style options, I decided to shoot my shot and reach out to see if they\u2019d be interested in working with us on this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And omg, my friends, Room &<\/a> <\/a>Board<\/a><\/strong> said yes!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Not only do I love how cool their online customization tool<\/a><\/strong> is, they also have free design services<\/a><\/strong> to help you \u2013 whether you\u2019re a d\u00e9cor lover who\u2019s stuck on a design dilemma, or a self-described design bozo who can\u2019t tell the difference between a Chenille or a Boucl\u00e9, let alone pronounce them. (p.s. for the latter group, those words are upholstery fabrics, and you can load up on free Room & Board swatches<\/a><\/strong> if you want to figure that fabric out. You\u2019re welcome.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Room & Board is also B Corp Certified<\/a><\/strong>, which means that they definitely do not<\/em> suck as a company (do you know how hard it is to get that certification?!<\/em>), plus they\u2019re sustainability minded<\/a><\/strong> and make more than 90% of their products in the USA, often through partnerships with smaller, local craftspeople. (e.g., these goods are not cheap, imported, factory-made knockoffs)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m genuinely not kidding when I tell you how pumped I am to get to work with them, and I hope you\u2019ll give them a click and a holler<\/a><\/strong> to support them for supporting us! (And by all means, tell ’em we sent ya ;))<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So Here\u2019s The Plan:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Using our Mood Board and layout conversation with Julia<\/a><\/strong> from CLJ as a jumping off point, we\u2019ll be anchoring the living room with some absolutely gorgeous Room & Board pieces that I can\u2019t wait<\/em> to show you, as well as sourcing some secondhand and sale items as needed to fill in any gaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our home entertainment electronics will graduate from projector-balanced-on-the-side-table, to an actual, real TV, with additional speakers to boot (We currently have only one speaker in the living room, and it\u2019s on a wall across the room from the screen, literally like 15 feet away diagonally).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The windows are getting fixed up, curtains are being altered, lighting & electrical will be adjusted, and these poor miserable walls will finally have something more than primer on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll also be snatching stuff from around our own house that we already love, and will tie it all together with a new rug and some art\u2026 and then we\u2019re gonna throw five kids in there and see how it all holds up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want to see how it all goes?<\/strong> <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Make sure you\u2019ve liked us on Facebook<\/a><\/strong> or Instagram<\/a><\/strong> to see the day-by-day, and be sure to sign up for our not-annoying newsletter<\/a><\/strong> to get updates, roundups, and other good stuff for cool cats like yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
