Step Inside Our Home! Part I: Family Room

Mitchell & I have moved 5 times in the last 6 years (7 if you count places that we just lived in over the summer). During those years most of our furniture was second hand, or, if we were lucky, from Target. After all those 5 huge cross-country moves, our stuff was pretty hammered. So after signing with Deloitte and purchasing our new home, we decided on a budget and we had such a fun time shopping, analyzing, pinteresting and furnishing our new home together!

The home we bought was a spec home, so it was done before we bought it (40 days to be exact). So, we did not get to choose any of the options for it. We would have made several different decisions on finishings, but we loved the floorplan SO much and it's a wonderful fit overall for being our first home. It will do just fine for now, and we've had fun making it our own!

We have received several questions on our furnishings and decor and I've been promising a blog post to several of you for a long while! With having a newborn and finishing my undergrad (YAY!), it's taken me a while, but here it is.

All of the details and sources can be found at the end of the post!

I think I'd describe our style as clean, bright, and midcentury-modern with a lot of natural elements. It's fairly eclectic with a very neutral color palette.

As you'll see below, we got our stuff from EVERYwhere (you'll see that even more on the rest of the house tour). We were very deliberate in what we selected, major-splurging in some areas that were really important to us (sectional) and then getting super bargains on others (media stand, for example).

Here are the deets, each is linked below:
