Let me show you the space that is in desperate need of help in the way of seating. As all of my readers know, I’ve been on a major push to get our entire house painted. I haven’t really decorated any rooms in our new to us Colonial. But, when a girl gets tired of painting ceilings and walls, a girl can dream, right? And, the best way to dream is online, searching out looks and creating decor boards.
This space is directly across from the entertainment center with freshly painted walls waiting for some decor.
As you enter the front door, the family room is to the right. Nothing is really styled in the house. I did however put out a few things so that it doesn’t look too bare.
The Hearth room is just beyond the family room. Wouldn’t a loveseat be perfect in this little corner?
The area measures 78″ which could handle a loveseat, small table and a couple of floor lamps to add some lighting. There is no overhead lighting in this room, so adding lighting is essential. Oh, and an ottoman is essential for me! This is my spot to sit when we watch movies and I like to put my feet up. Currently, I use a beat up blue storage cube that you will never see in pictures again, because it is just too hideous! Add in some pillows and a throw and we’ve got a nice little seating area.
Here are some options I designed for the space.

Kathryn, I like the blue love seat the best but the accessories in Look #1 are more my style. Good luck with your choices. It's fun to dream on OKL.
Beautiful choices. I think I'd choose #1 myself. What fun to be a part of One King's Lane's Love Seat Love. Congrats and I hope you get something perfect for your space.
Blessings,
Patti
Thank you, Patti for dropping by to see what I came up with. It was fun working with One Kings Lane! Have a lovely weekend!
Kathryn, I choose #2. Love the pop of colors!!
Love the Love Seats!
Kathryn – Of course it would depend on the color of the walls but I think right now my choice would be number 2. I love the deep blue color and the accessories you have chosen. I think it would be so much fun to be a part of one of these challenge's and you have done a great job! Have a wonderful week!
{{{Hugs}}} Debi
Thank you, Debi! I really cannot decide. I like them both so much! Have a great weekend. Toodles, Kathryn
Both are beautiful, but I'd choose Look 1. Neutral colors allow for more flexibility to change things up a bit seasonally or just when the mood suits. Can't wait to see the final look.
Thanks so much, Joanne for popping in to take a look! Have a fun weekend. Toodles, Kathryn
Oh Kathryn, I am loving Look 2! It has so much personality and looks really comfortable!
Thank you so much, Julie for letting me know your favorite!!
Great choices, Great style! One Kings Lane sure knows what they are doing picking you….Christine
Kathryn, I love the look of #2.
Thanks, Shirley for popping in and voting! I really cannot decide. LOL
Kathryn, I love the look of #2.
Well, this post has captured my attention…I've been going back and forth…option 1 or option 2…I love them both. I think if I had to pick a favorite though, it would be #2. I just love the pops of color. Have fun decorating!

I love look #1 (and One Kings Lane too!). I think it would look great with your blue and white lamps (love them!). Plus the loveseat would be a great foot of the bed piece if you ever wanted to move it.
Thank you so much for weighing in on the vote! Have a great week. Toodles, Kathryn
Both are great choices. I like #1 the best.
Thanks for popping in for a look, Trish! Toodles, Kathryn
Look #1
Thanks, Carolyn for popping in for a look! Happy day to you! Toodles, Kathryn
Hey Kathryn,
I came over on Think Tank Thursday, and I'm glad to find your site.
What you've done with the seating looks great! I like the color choices – the blues and the tans all look really good together!
I hope you have a blessed day today~
Melanie
So happy to meet you, Melanie! Thank you for your kind words. Happy day to you! Toodles, Kathryn
How about a combination of the two looks? 🙂 Thanks for linking up with us at Thursday Favorite Things!
#2 I love that blue couch! Thanks so much for linking up with Dream. Create. Inspire. Link. Kathryn, I hope you will join us again this Tuesday night:)
Stopping by from #SmallVictoriesSunday . Thanks for the decor inspiration. I'm always looking for ways to refresh my house.
Thank you so much, Rachel for popping in for a look. Hope you have a great evening! Toodles, Kathryn
Couldn't go wrong with either choice!
Thanks so much for sharing at AMAZE ME MONDAY!
Blessings,
Cindy

Hi Kathryn, I'm kind of going for look #1, but let me tell you that according to our recent home shows, navy is the hot new color! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
