I've never had anything reupholstered before, so I'm unfamiliar with the cost of that particular undertaking. However, I'm definitely thinking of getting our current couch and chair re-covered. The blue isn't bad, but a little dull, and worst of all, the material is easy to soil and very difficult to clean. The pillows have also really taken a turn for the worse lately, so getting better filling for those would be great too. It would be a great way to revitalize these two pieces, rather than spending a fortune to replace them. Something to look into, anyway.
Today we purchased a lovely rattan floor lamp, which adds a nice organic touch to the room. I also fell in love with a light fixture in the same store. It's circular with an outer rim of thin, medium-brown wood (kind of bamboo-looking, I'm not sure) and another inner section of layered glass. I think it would look great in the living room, replacing the cute but sort of crappily-made paper lantern hanging in there currently.
