The New Family Room

I am loving the new family room.  I told you a couple weeks ago that we sold the old furniture to make way for some new stuff.  We bought a new sectional and I think we are all loving it.  It is larger than the old one and we all have so much room now when we're lounging.  It has deep and comfy seating.

I love the modern tufting of the pillows.  It's also a plus that all the pillows are attached.  No more fixing pillows.  The sectional is also a lighter shade than the old one and lightens up the space a little.  I never realized how dark the old one was before.
 

I'm temporarily using the ottoman from the entryway until I find a larger one.  This one is kind of wimpy in this space.

A new floor lamp in this corner from Target.  Takes up less space and I like that it gives the corner some height.
 

I love the wood trim around the bottom.  Another favorite feature is that both ends have arms.  This gives it more seating as the old sectional had a chaise on one side and didn't allow the person sitting there to lean back and relax.
 

This table used to be in the corner.  I moved it to the end to balance the floor lamp on the other side.  On it sits a Homegoods lamp, a picture of my daughter, a few books, and an Ikea plant.

 

I like how this end looks finished now.  Still debating on getting a larger side table since it sits in the open now.  It was perfect for the corner but now might be too small.
 

You may notice I pulled one of the chairs from the living room to see how it would fit here.  It's not permanent here but I may find the same chair in a different print.  I've also seen a few arm chairs I like.  The old sectional had a matching over-sized chair that I loved and it was so comfortable so I'm also open to another if I see one.  The little round ottoman found its way in here too.  Once I find a larger middle ottoman, this little guy will go back to its home.

 What do you think?  I think we'll be happy with this piece for a while right hubby?
