Working On The House... upstairs family room

BEFORE...
I love our fireplace, but I am not a fan of the wood! And I really don't like white walls! So after a few coats of primer and paint we have an enjoyable place to sit and relax!

AFTER...

p.s. it is a little hard to see, but i got the coffee table at the thrift store for $1.50!

  1. You are amazing! I bet you are having so much fun. I am such a slow decorator. I take a long time to decide what to do and have to make sure it is PERFECT before I settle...
    Wanna help me with paint colors? I'm working on my bedroom, master bath, kids bath amd downstairs bath. ;)
