The Spanish Style Living Room
Having a space in your home that instantly gives you happiness is key. I encourage you to find a spot — ANY spot — within a few steps of you as you wake up that will lift you up as you start your day. Clean up a corner, put a few simple things in it that you love, and voilá… your literal happy place!
The Blue Sitting Nook
But first, coffee… in this nook! I love these refurbished flea market chairs paired with this fun side table from Serena & Lily. You can shop it by clicking here.
The big window in the blue nook creates a wonderful shadow on the floor. I crave this time of day because of it!
Living Room Wall Art & Accessories
This painting by Brian Wills brings such a nice pop of color to the room. I love how it compliments the blue-greens in the COCOCOZY area rug and throw blanket.
And goodness, I’ve had this coffee table for so long I almost can’t remember where I got it. I believe it’s from Crate + Barrel from over 15 years ago! Don’t do the math…
The brass swans are another flea market find!
I spiced up this couch from Restoration Hardware with fun pillows and a throw, all from COCOCOZY. You can shop the collection by clicking here.
Vintage Chairs
All of the chairs (other than the couch) are vintage flea market finds that I have had refurbished. Which makes me wonder… would you like to see a post specifically on how to redo chairs?? Let me know!
These heavy woven cotton drapes with grommets were purchased while I was traveling with my mom in Paris. Such a fun (and cheap!) find!
Here are a few ideas to give you a head start on creating your own vibrant space (below)!
I hope this gives you the inspiration to find that special spot in your home. I love seeing my living room in the morning light. The room changes throughout the day. And always remember to appreciate the little things life throws your way, for those are often the big things.
xo!
The energetic vibe coming from each corner. Your pieces speak for themselves! Thanks for the post.
Love this light filled room and your house is divine Coco! I’m inspired and hoping to find a place like it when I move to LA this summer from Cape Cod to be near my daughter in MDR. And, like you, I have a really tough decision to sell my tiny little beach cottage that I absolutely adore but it will be an adventure!
So glad I found you!!

Coco,
Thank You for the blog posts regarding the Spanish Colonial you’ve been working on. We just bought one in Whittier for my mother-in-law and trying to pick exterior paint colors, etc. Good luck!
