I agree with things being simple, it really does make things spacious. BTW-I love that your husband has 5 guitars. I see my son has a budding guitar interest-he will get his first one for Christmas.

We have an awesome feature wall in our living room covered with artwork in mis-matched vintage frames. Shop for cool, cheap frames on ebay and charity stores (don't worry about what's in them, you can replace it), then use them to frame artwork prints you like. You can buy cheap prints online, and also check out the gift shops in art galleries and museums. They sell prints for about £3-£4 each). It looks bright, colourful, and original, and the whole wall cost about £100 all up (and there's over 15 different frames).

I don't like living rooms that aren't liveable. My mother kept her LR pristeen in case of company for years, and stuck my dad back in a tiny bedroom to watch t.v. He finally moved the t.v. into the LR and said exactly what you said "Living rooms are for living in". Of course, it took him 20 years to get the nerve to do it! LOL I’ve enjoyed your series.
