Living Room Eyesore FIXED!


This was a window area once upon a time.
Then the genius who built the addition on the other side
made it shelving on both sides -- about 3" wide,
 so that neither side was completely functional.
And then put in fun house mirrors that made you appear
short and squatty.  Altogether a lovely effect,
and that was front and center in our tiny living room.

So it finally got torn out this week.
This is the view from the living room into the office.

This is the "after".
So soothing in comparison.
It will be our TV "nook",
and will save valuable floor space.

We used the boards that I had whitewashed in 
this post.  They are 120 years old, and look great.
I will show you in finished living room soon.

  2. When we looked at the house a year ago for the first time, I looked at that mirrored window area and thought...that has to go. I am so glad it is gone, perfect place to stash the tv.
