Tip #2: Choose your living room furniture carefully.
Don’t feel obligated to spend a lot on living room furniture, there is no need for it. Chalet-style furniture will give a place a feeling of calmness. Try not to get bulky materials, and select warm tones and colors (i.e. soft yellows, greens, blues and oranges; welcoming reds; cottage whites; etc.). Woods that are historically principal in cottages don’t have to be included in your living room if you don’t want to. Consider chintz, toile, and floral fabrics. Living room furniture such as small tables and armoires are a great oportunity to get a chalet-like look. Search for pieces with tattered paint and damaged spots. 

Tip #3: Accesorize.
Looking for accessories can be exciting and interesting. When trying to evolve your living room furniture style, consider various garnishes first. Incorporate objects with unique shapes, antiques with interesting stories to them, items from the beach, vintage photographs and more. It is possible to renovate the living room to have a cottage feel, and it can be done without spending a lot of money. Go places; visit garage sales, flea markets and auctions. You’ll soon find that ‘finishing’ your room is a project of love – and your guests will enjoy the comfort of the space.

Make your cottage-style home personal and creative. Get accessories that reflect your own style and individualism. So why wait? Start getting cottage-creative!
