(Jenn) I'm sure you have all been wondering what happened with your votes on the living room arrangements. Sorry to keep you in suspense! Anyway, thanks for all of your opinions. Of course, the votes managed to pretty much cancel themselves out anyway, as they ended up pretty much 50/50 on everything. I took that as a sign that I should make a compromise! Here's what we did:
- kept the small chair, which I'm really happy about because I love it
- refinished the end table to match the wood colors in the rest of the room, which I think looks a lot better
- compromised on the pillow arrangements, using half of Arrangement 1 and half of Arrangement 2. It seemed like most of you liked the first arrangement for color and the second arrangement for size. So we kept the small rectangular pillow on the left and used the floral pillow on the right, mostly because I think it ties the whole room together well.
If you scroll down and look at our original living room, I think you'll probably agree with me that our final arrangement is the best. If you don't, you probably shouldn't tell me! Still on my list: finding something to go in the bottom section of that end table, getting rid of those last few pesky boxes that are STILL in the dining room, and saving up my pennies for all of the other visions I'm having that I'm sure I won't be able to talk Ben into.

I love it! It's a perfect blend of the best of both options. Nice work!
May I suggest leaving the table empty? Unless it is a room where little ones are not allowed. It seems that it is at the perfect level for anything to be knocked over. If something has to put there I recommend children's books or blocks that could be played with. You could even find some that would match the colors of the room.
