We almost have the living room all ready. The second color should get painted in the next couple days and then hopefully the furniture will be ready to get delivered. We are almost to the fun stuff!

I can not wait until all of the hard stuff is over. Then I will be able to concentrate more on decorating. The whole color scheme has changed so I will need to go shopping for more things right? I want more things for the ledge and more things for the walls.

James and I have also discussed ideas for Window Coverings. Right now we have plastic Window Blinds. James hates blinds so he wants to either add drapes over them or change to something else. I actually like the functionality of window blinds but I do not like the look of plastic blinds in the living room.

James wants drapes but I do not think full drapes would look good in our living room. The hard thing with our living room is that two of the windows have the bottom of the window on a ledge and one does not. It would look wierd to have drapes that are two different lengths. It would look even stranger if they were the same length because then one windows drapes would stop very high off the ground in order to match the windows on the ledge.

I think a good option would be to get Window Shades. Tear Drop Roman Shades have a nice warm fabric feel but are still very functional like blinds. They are also just the size of the window so it would eliminate the problems we would have with drapes.

I am starting to get excited about getting the living room finished! Maybe if I keep thinking about all of the shopping I can do later I will get the painting done faster! I just need to get past the stuff that I hate.
