Thanks, mauishopgirl!

Fabulous idea and execution!

Couple of ideas...first, I LOVE the suitcases, too, and they serve as great storage. I'd switch the two side tables, I think the two level works better beside the sofa. Is it comfortable viewing tv from sofa? If so, leave it...you could do four smaller storage ottomans instead of the one large one in the centre. You could also do a low back couch outside the perimeter of the area rug, in bwtween the existing couch and chair, you might have to lose one table, though. Good luck!

Love it! How did you transform your walls and countertops, what paint and technique did you use??

I'd put a nice,long rug down too, to draw the eye into the rest of the living area...maybe a nice striped one, or something with a large pattern, and then, definitely put some bigger artwork on the walls. One long,rectangular piece of artwork on the small wall, and two large{but smaller than the rectangular piece!} square framed pieces on the bigger wall.

You could use a window film over both windows, that way you will still get all the light, but privacy as well. I think you can even get pretty patterned window films...that would be nice!
