Inspiration Mondays: TV Stands June 13, 2011 Life 4 Comments 3660 I’ve been looking at new TV stands lately. The problem is that our TV is tiny- like really tiny. But I’d like to get a piece that would work with a larger TV when we (finally) upgrade. Image courtesy of decorpad.com Yeah, I wish that was our house. Last year, I moved the TV to the corner on the opposite side of the living room. This arrangement actually suits our room the best (we were able to add another couch), but I am limited to corner TV stands. TV as art? Image courtesy of Apartment Therapy I’d love something with more storage so I could get rid of the DVD tower. I’m dreaming of some pickled greige oak TV stands. But in my dichotomous style nightmare, I can’t help but be drawn to this bright and airy living room with the simple clean-lined TV stand.

Do share! 4 Responses 1 Funky Woman June 13, 2011 Love that airy living room and the colors! Well I hate t.v. and the fact that it always is the focal point in a room drives me bonkers. We have lived with our living room free of t.v. for years. Well now that we got a piano we had to do some re-arranging and the t.v. is now sitting in the LVR. I have a pine wood armoire that I painted black and distressed some edges so I can live with it, but really only when the armoire is closed, lol. Hope you find a grand one and show pics.

But, while there are some shows that could qualify as art, I don’t know that TV is really aspiring to art nowadays. 🙂 But I’d still do it If I found something that worked just because it looks cool. We had a corner arrangement for awhile. But it really did not require a corner stand. I wouldn’t limit yourself that way. Plus once you buy a corner stand, it can be awkward to try to use it anywhere else if your arrangement changes. Reply Lovely Crafty Home June 13, 2011 Yeah that’s true…the one we have right now is not a corner stand but I feel like it’s wasting space. Hmmm…lots to think about!!
