Family Room - Happy One Year Anniversary!

We spend most of our time in our family room. There is so much I want to change, yet at the same time I enjoy spending time in the room.

Before: Here's the family room before we moved in.
I made the ottoman out of an old coffee table from CCA. I spray-painted legs brown, put foam and batting on the top, and covered it with beautiful durable brown fabric. For Christmas, Brian got me a brown tray, which provides a flat surface for drinks, books, etc. I've had these green couches for over five years. One day, I look forward to replacing the green couches with a neutral sectional. When we moved in the house, I found the perfect carpet that pulls in the green, brown, and tan color scheme.

Here's another chair that used to be my parent's chair. While I hate the leaf fabric; it is durable, comfortable, and it does match the room's colors. Thank you mom and dad!
I found the sofa table at a garage sale for $10. I spray-painted it a bronze color and made a table runner out of an old shower curtain.
There's a lot I want to do, but I do love this family space.
