How I Fixed Our Long Awkward Living & Dining Room | Cosy Home Decor Ideas

Living room and dining room makeover in our Melbourne rental home. I’m transforming a long, awkward, hallway-like open-plan space into a cosy living and dining area using mostly our existing furniture and a few thrifted finds. When we moved in, I wasn’t sure how to arrange furniture in such a long, narrow room or make the living and dining spaces feel connected. After plenty of rearranging, mixing old and thrifted furniture, and adding cushions, plants, warm lighting and simple decorative touches, it’s finally starting to feel like home. This is a realistic, budget-friendly rental makeover, no major renovations or expensive new furniture, just making the most of what we already have.
