I’m dreaming of a #WorldMarketMakeover in my Living Room

August 14, 2013 By Melanie Roberts 24 Comments

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

The other day I got an e-mail from one of my favorite companies…World Market. They always have amazing stuff from German Foods to super cool room décor. Their newest promotion is a $5,000 shopping spree… YES… you heard me right $5,000.00!! I quickly started to dream about making over my living room.

It’s not that the room is ugly or really needs a makeover; but…If you lived with the same room for close to 10 years…You kind of get tired and want something different. After all, everyone can dream…Right?

While I was dreaming, I also took some pictures of my living room to show you the room I soo would love to makeover…Check it out.

The room is fairly small with lots of doors and windows and openings; making it very hard to place furniture or even find furniture that fit; I want the room to be inviting and clean cut, especially since my front door goes right into that room. That is one thing that has bothered me about this house ever since I moved in. Why would the front door go directly to the room…No hallway no foyer…I always had hallways, so this was new to me and I’m having even after 14 years in this house issues with it.

The furniture’s aren’t bad at all; just the couches are not big enough to seat the entire family. Someone always has to hang out on the floor and you can’t stretch out either. Don’t get me wrong,  I love the couch,  just not a good fit for this room. Would be much better in my office.

The TV cabinet is from Germany, I brought it over when I moved to the US 16 years ago and it’s close to 20 years old now, still looking great, but I want a change…. Crazy… I know, that’s why I’m the Crazy mom …lol.

So, off to World Market I go to see what kind of damage I could do if I would win the $5,000 shopping spree. I may not even spend all in this room, BUT… it would be a great start and maybe I could makeover my bedroom along the way, who knows.

This is what I would get if I would win the $5,000 Shopping Spree…

Well…. I know I’m not anywhere near the $5,000 BUT… this is a good start to get my room spruced up; don’t you think? I’m off to enter the Sweepstake now to make sure I have a chance of winning my Living Room Makeover with the World Market Spruce Your Space Sweepstake; come and enter with me. Would be cool if someone wins that I know… (besides me of course…lol).

I also love the new Maison Des Artistes- new catalog, French inspired designs, most of the items I want for my Living Room came from there (if not all) and the Urban Dwellings– small spaces, new collection, is just as AWESOME, too. Ohhh.. there are just too many things I like, love and WANT!! The possibilities…. I keep on dreaming and You can enter for a chance to win a $5,000 World Market gift card and design consultation at World Market and Sweepstakes ends 9/6/13.

For more information (and extra entries into the Sweepstake) about World Market and the Sweepstake, be sure to visit them on the Web and follow on Facebook or Twitter. I also created a Pinterest Board show you the things I love… come check it out.

    I could see how just a few accessories would make it exciting to be in again. A couple of those pillows would be lovely in there! It’s definitely a nice space already, although I can see why you’d prefer an entryway just because. 🙂

    I totally love World Market! What a super sweet promotion… and I could really use the help sprucing things up over here. I feel so uncreative lately in that department! I love the new looks you picked, so pretty! I am especially liking those curtains…. pretty!

    You have a nice living room, but the combination of neutral and bright colored products that you picked out will look awesome in there!

    You picked out some great things and it sure is fun to dream, dream, dream. But there are times, those dreams become a reality so we just never know. That’s what’s fun. I do like your room now. Our door also goes directly right into the living room so I know what you’re talking about with that. Good luck with the sweeps!

    I could really use a $5,000.00 shopping Spree. World Market seems to have lovely items that would fit perfectly in my living room. I would enjoy getting some new things for my house.
