I’ve been feeling the itch to do something different with our TV.  As much as I hate incorporating the TV into the living room decor, it actually is a big part of what we do in that room.  Whether it’s watching movies after the kids go to bed, playing games on the wii or hosting a Monday Night Football party…it’s a part of our life.

So, right now the TV sits on a media console.  I love the console itself, but there’s not much room up there for anything except the TV.  I pinned a few ideas for wall units that might work around the TV, but I was also remembered some photos I took of my friend, Allyson‘s house last summer.  She’s a crafty girl…so of course her and her husband put this together themselves.  She also made some wallpaper while she was at it.  Did you read this post?

I love the way she layers things…nothing looks too cluttery, which is my biggest pet peeve.

Thanks for letting me share your house Allyson!  I’m inspired to put together something that will work my TV and hopefully be a bit stylish in the process!
