Well if we need a new chair then we need a new couch too, and then if we are getting a new couch I would like the brick on the fireplace removed and hardwood on the floors…and so a total gut job of the family room is in process. My very talented husband is making built in’s for around the fireplace and wainscoting for one wall. The new couch has arrived, and I am trying to figure out what to put above the fireplace , and on the mantle and on the shelves…..and then there are pillows a throw and a rug….stay tuned.
Making a house a home….is always work….but fun work. ;}
I totally get it, once that ball starts rolling you can’t stop the process! Enjoy the journey!
Ha! Love this…makes me think of the great children’s book “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie” one of my favorites 🙂
Amy, the lines from “If You Give A Mouse A Cookie” popped right into my brain too. Great minds. 😉
Pam, I like the way you think. Please show us photos as the changes take place!

I will post more after this weekend when all the woodwork is done, the painter starts on Monday to finish all the woodwork, stain and glaze then on to the rest of the painting.
In the meanwhile , I am planning my gallery wall. Also, any suggestions for what to put on the shelves? Need light items not too tall
I can’t wait to see what you do! I’m a fan of built ins, everything looks so clean and finished. I’m sure you have some great framed photos to put on the shelves. Maybe some books too?
