Sitting Pretty: Living Room Inspiration

By Heidi @missfinn
A living room is a place to sit, to read, relax, cuddle, to play on your iPad, hangout, whatever.  Sometimes, when I get the chance, I love to just sit all day (or for as long as my children will let me) and read.  Having a nice place to do so is even nicer, yes?

It's like meditating.Sitting Pretty: living room inspirationI just love this love seat.  The mirror reflects the tv on the opposite wall. It also shows pictures arranged around the tv, which is a nice way to incorporate your television into a room.  I also like the symmetry with the balance of side tables and lamps on each side of the couch.
