T.V. Wall and Living Room Reveal

Hey, Hey, Hey folks! I finally finished my living room and I am so excited to show it to you!
I have seen chandelier medallions used a few times as a wall treatment and have been dying to put a collection of them on my wall for over a year now. This weekend, I finally got around to doing it. It's a contemporary way to display an antique "frou frou" item. Not only is it a break from all the rectangles on that wall but is also a nice contrast to my rustic pallet table. Since almost all of our things were throw away items that we've dolled up, this room cost under $1000!
Before:
And Now!
Lanterns are the perfect way to add magic to a space.

I hope you are all having a marvelous day, I am going to relax and enjoy some t.v. (wall).

    Molly everything looks so great! The medallions do look great on the wall, and balance out the rustic pallet table. So well put togeather, all the details! I love the star fish on the shiny stump, just a cute little detail. You think of everything!!

      Hey there! Thank you for stopping by! You can find antique medallions at antique shops, markets etc. I ordered these off of Amazon since my local hardware store in Germany doesn't have a large selection. Lowe's and the Home Depot have a great selection as well!
      Let me know if there are any other questions I can answer for you!
      Have a very blessed day!

      Hey there! Thank you so much! These ones were purchased at Target this spring. If they don't have them anymore, Etsy is a fabulous place to look for chevron or any other unique type of pillow :) I thank you for stopping by and hope you have a fabulous day!
