House Update with Pottery Barn

a_house_in_the_hills_Spring_living_room_update-4

Hi friends!  Today I’m SO excited to be partnering with Pottery Barn to share some progress on our living space!  As I think I mentioned earlier, when we sold the Palm Springs house the buyers purchased some of the furniture from us.  It actually worked out pretty well so that we weren’t starting completely from scratch but also didn’t move into our current home with a bunch of items that wouldn’t work!  So, as you can see- we have so many of the pieces from our old living room that we’ve been able to make work in this new house!

I’ve been looking for the perfect ways to update the space to make it feel fresh and new- some smaller changes that would make the couch feel different- and I fell head over heels for these Pottery Barn hand woven pillow covers that add so much warmth and coziness to the couch.  I was really looking for some texture to play off the vintage fabric of the colorful pillows we brought along.  I also added this cable knit throw which is possibly THE SOFTEST THING TO EVER LAY UPON MY BODY.  I’m not being dramatic.  It’s legitimately softer than kittens and I think I might have to buy another so that Lou and I aren’t wrestling over who gets to snuggle up in it every night.  I’m very aware- not a bad problem to have!  I have plans for a few last updates to this part of the room for down the road- and replacing the coffee table is at the top of the list.  So looking forward to it all coming together the way I imagine and sharing the final product with you when we’re able to make it happen.  Click through to see more of the room!

OK, now for the most exciting part!  Pottery Barn is hosting a contest for one lucky winner to receive $1000 gift card to shop for their own Spring refresh!  For a chance to win, upload a photo to Instagram OR to the Pottery Barn site and hashtag it #mypotterybarn (you may also be featured on the PB Instagram!)  You have until June 10th to enter, so hop to it!  Oooooh, I so hope it’s one of you who wins!!!  I’m also simultaneously very jealous of that winner!  GOOD LUCK MY FRIENDS!!  xx- Sarah

    The room looks great! Question – is the photo supposed to be of a room that is in need of a Spring refresh or that has been refreshed?

    Thanks!

      B, the coffee table is vintage! But I’ve found them online before- if you do a search for stainless steel coffee table you might find something similar! Good luck! xx

      Thanks Denise! Oh, I’m obsessed with the chair- and it’s super comfortable, which was a surprise to me. Happy you liked the update! xx

    There is a little boundary that a few people can understand – how to combine the old stuff that you already have with a new one in a way that your house will look modern, fresh and all that will not be very expensive. Well done! The house looks cozy, modern, welcoming, and clean. 🙂

    Hi Sarah! Where is the rug from? The link isn’t working – if it’s sold out at etsy, do you know the shop or other sources? I’m looking for one just like that.
