Oh my goodness, where to begin!?
How about by saying thanks for all of the love on the living room reveal post? You guys just make my entire life.
It is absolutely insane to me how these quick turnaround room makeovers always seem to work out. Living in Southern Utah there are not a lot of resources for buying treasures. I mean, the options are Target, Homegoods, and a few thrift/consignment stores. I don’t typically buy a lot of stuff online (something about seeing it in person and having a hard time remembering to ship things back if I don’t want them come to mind.) But for this space I did a little more online shopping and I’m pretty happy about it!
The couch was found on Craigslist for $150 and reupholstered (a whole post about this process is coming this week). In Utah there is a store called Downeast, they sell returns from really great brands like West Elm, PB, and Restoration Hardware. I don’t usually find a lot of stuff there, but a last minute trip landed me the coffee table and pendant light. The coffee table (from WE) was a super great price (around $100) same goes for the light, it was just over $100.
The tutorial for the giant white dowel art can be found here!
The black leather side chairs are from a local consignment store called Urban Renewal. It is the one place in town that really carefully curates the stuff that they sell, it is a great place for prints and loads of inspiration. Normally their furniture is out of my price range but these super comfy guys were a huge score at $55 each. The off white rope pillow on the black chair is from Homegoods, they had a ton of different styles when I was last there.
The white and gray fringe pillow is made by Loloi. I went to Vegas on the hunt for some fabric for a chair that I am reupholstering and found a couple of great pillows at Home Fabrics (this being one of them!) I have no idea where to send you guys to actually purchase it, some are sold on Urban Outfitters, but this one in particular is sold out on their site.
The gray and red striped pillow is from CB2 (sold out).
The pink and red kilim pillow is from Urban Outfitters. The giant cactus is a Peruvian Apple Cactus that I found at a local nursery for around $60. The simple white planter is from Lowes. Also, I just need to point out (because you can see it in this picture) when we bricked the wall we swapped out the regular outlet for one that has USB ports and it is AWESOME.
You can get all the dirty details on the Craigslist card catalog in this post. The woven wall hanging was a consignment store find for around $30. Lets just talk about the terra cotta vase for a second. It is SO good. And the best part is that its not actually terra cotta, it’s metal, so you don’t ever have to worry about that cute skinny arm breaking off. The skeleton print was a happy accident that you can read about in this post. Everything else was thrifted.
You can read all about the hanging light here, and how we rewired it here. The family pictures. Man I love those things so much. We had them printed at Alphagraphics (if you are in St. George I HIGHLY recommend them, they are amazing to work with) I really wanted them printed on a canvas but with the room turnaround time we just couldn’t make it happen.
The desk was a Homegoods find that you can read all about here (oh my gosh that post is so old! Wahhhh! Dylan! Be a little baby again!!!) I took out the colored drawer and moved the other one to the middle. The rug was made with a paperclip. You can find the tutorial for that one here. Both planters are from Target (seafoam & white)
Love the marbled pillow from CB2. The colors are a little brighter in real life than they seem online.
Tutorial for the copper shelves, and plexiglass calendar will be up on the blog soon! I’m glad that you guys are as excited about those shelves as I am! The large sisal rug is actually 2 of these guys from Target stitched together. When I originally ordered the patterned runner (WE clearance 70% off!) I was super excited, then when I got it, it looked so rinky dink in the entryway. It needed to be twice as wide…oops. So the sisals saved the day! The rug is sold out, but they still have pillows with the same pattern on major clearance ($14.99!!!)
The tutorial for the bent arm chandelier is here, as well as the ceiling beams, and HI. art.
The little metal yellow wall pockets add some fun color and are $8.95!! I feel like I need one on every surface of my life. Including in my car.
I have to say, I feel like Home Depot is majorly stepping it up in the plant department lately. They have so many great cacti and large succulents it makes my heart happy!
Most of the planters are from Target. These little teeny dip bowls are the perfect size to pop a succulent into and they are only $1.99!
The slouchy linen basket is from Nate (I love him.) And just a heads up, there are a bunch of KILLER planters at Target in the garden section right now.
This is the second Loloi pillow that I found at Home Fabrics, but YAY! they sell them at UO and as a rug at West Elm! Large woven basket is Nate, naturally.
All of the cactus prints will be available in the shop shortly! (until then there are lots of good ones!)
Phew. Hope you guys made it through that and got the info that you were itching for!! If I left something out, let me know below and I would be more than happy to pass the info along!
Hi Mandi,
Love this entire room! I tend to go for neutrals with deep jewel tones, but you always make me want to go in a more desert tone direction (all the terra cotta color, coral, etc) because you pull it off so well. And I’m so glad you decided to reupholster the black couch – that shape is sexy haha. I wanted to let you know that you forgot to link to the card catalog post and the sweet craigslist light post. Thanks for all you do!
Amanda! What would I do without you!!?

I have decided that I want my whole house to look like your living room! 🙂 I know that televisions aren’t the prettiest things, but I’d love to see how you did your tv wall. That cadenza looks awesome!
What about the blue/wood buffet in the foyer? It’s my fave piece! Love the entire space, you are a rockstar!
What about the frames that the cacti prints are in? I want to be ready to replicate that look!
Basic Ikea!!
The copper shelves look so much like the ones from Anthroplogie ! That’s where I found the inspiration for mine. Such pretty bling for a shelf! 🙂 Great Job!
Love! Can you post a link to the yellow metal wall pockets?
Here you go Jill! https://www.cb2.com/wall-pocket-yellow/s689430
You did a great job of pulling off a mid-century modern look without making it look overdone or too masculine. Love love!
So Fabulous! I love all the plants, the mix of brown couch with black chairs. It’s gorgeous and comfortable looking! Where are the metal, yellow wall pockets from? There isn’t a link. Thanks!
You can get them here! https://www.cb2.com/wall-pocket-yellow/s689430
Where did you get those yellow wall pockets?
Here is the link! https://www.cb2.com/wall-pocket-yellow/s689430
Rose, they’re from CB2 🙂 I just did a quick google image search for them and that’s what popped up. https://www.cb2.com/all-gifts/gifts/wall-pockets/f9648
Thanks for this resource list, I always like to know where you shop for stuff besides thrift/craigslist. Sometimes, I buy from west elm or world market but it’s usually rugs or side tables. Now, that I buy vintage whenever possible, I find furniture from these big box stores are made so cheaply. Thanks for reminding me about Urban Outfitters I always forget about them. BTW, that terra cotta vase is amazing and its calling my name. I’m trying to resist at the moment, but it’s not easy. I can’t wait for the upholstered couch post. You have so many special things in your room but that COUCH is my favorite. 🙂
Mandi, this is the first time I have been to your site and I’m in love with your living room! Can’t wait to check out the diy stuff… Also do you happen to remember where you got the gold bowl/planter? Thanks
LOVE LOVE LOVE this room! I’m thinking of doing the dowel wall art as headboards for my little boys’ beds! Where did you get the white desk chair? Love it all!
As always, the room is straight genius! Those family photos are stunning. Simple, and yet they speak volumes about love and life! Beautiful 🙂
I just got a handful of tiny succulents at Home Depot – I’ll have to check later this season for some big ones (I LOVE that big one in the gold-roped bowl). I have killed every plant I’ve kept indoors, hopefully a couple of succulents will live through my plant-killing legend.
that sofa is making me drool!
This is so helpful to see where you got all your piece so thanks for taking the time to go through everything. One question, do you have another link for Nate’s slouchy linen basket? I think it’s going to the dip bowls.
This is so inspiring! Great job Mandi! And thanks for sharing the sources. Nothing I hate more than seeing a stunning space with no idea if I can pick up similar pieces for myself. You rock!
Where is the blue and wood credenza from?
Wow, great job! I have a lot of repurposing furniture DIYs on my blog too!

Is your rug too small for the space?
Wow! I love your site! Could you give me the purchase info for the bricks?
