Something completely different.

Finally my boyfriend and I got to visit the first potential future appartment of ours and it was lovely - a completely renovated appartment with 3 rooms of which one is the living room with a tiny kitchen in it.

I was busy skimming through magazines and lots and lots and lots of blogs searching for inspiration and finally I found the perfect couch at IKEA. (http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S89873838)

Brown was also an option. (http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S39895022)

I would have added some furniture in white, dark brown and some red ones - shabby, vintage, bohemian ones.

But I guess I can forget about all the plans I made up and the lovely colors I was dreaming of because the wall color in the living room is: ORANGE! Orange! How can someone chose orange as a color? (I'm sorry If I'm offending somebody here - I didn't mean to.). Our landlord does not want us to overpaint or add any wall color.

It's just that orange bugs me. It's so...ugh. I can't think of any way to decorate and furnish the room to make it look bohemian, soft and cool. With little items that add some cottage feeling. Help!

Plan of the living room

At first I was thinking about buying the brown couch/olive couch in spite of the wall color but the least thing I want is that the living room turns into a safari atmospheric something.

So, here is were you come into play. I need all your ideas and advice of how I can turn the living room into a non-conventional bohemian kind of nest I can snuggle in.

Thank you. I would really appreciate any help.

Much, much love- kisses and hugs.
