Bohemian Modern Living Room Inspiration: 1 2 3
Going all Bohemian Modern in your home can be as easy as adding some rugs, throw pillows and some different light fixtures. Cover existing furniture pieces with collected textiles–a Moroccan Handira, an Indian Kantha or a Turkish Kilim. Combine your more modern furniture and accessories, like your Ikea pieces or your CB2 scores with thrifted treasures and worldly tchotchkes. Hit up World Market for affordable international accessories. Make your home feel cool, clean and collected. Include plants to breath life into your space. Add one or two Eames-era pieces–a chair here, an arc lamp there–and don’t be afraid of color.
These affordable items can start you off:
Kilim Pillow $20
Kilim Pillow 2 $25
Kilim Pillow 3 $20
Rug $140
metal coffee table $40
Sofa $250
Arc lamp $110
Bookshelf $135
Blue butterfly wall hanging $63
Vintage Wooden Chair $115
Dracaena Plant: About $45 at your local garden center
Vintage Vase $42
Oh wow, I love the kilim cushions and that rug!!! Now I am hooked on ebay…
@Igor Right?! When I found out what great prices they had on Kilims on ebay I got hooked too.
Hello there! I was wondering if there is another store, besides IKEA, that you would recommend to find a fairly inexpensive but yet bohemian sofa?? Thanks!
Hi Crystal, if you want something NEW–it’s not so easy–but i’d check http://www.cb2.com/sofas/furniture/1 and I’d also look at urban outfitters. Your best best is to find something secondhand though. Good luck!
Love! And I’ve long loved that photo with the double art over the needlepoint pillow collection.
i love your blog.. just found it on OKL, where I sell, CuttingPiecesLA.( interior design and home staging).

Hi Anita– I don’t know– but you could try tweeting @warymeyers and find out! Thanks for stopping by!
A typical Western living room may contain furnishings such as a sofa, chairs, occasional tables, and bookshelves, electric lamps, rugs, or other furniture. Traditionally, a sitting room in the United Kingdom and New Zealand has a fireplace. In a Japanese sitting room, called a washitsu, the floor is covered with tatami, sectioned mats, on which people can sit comfortably.**,”
