Fireplace Facelift

This cute little home was already full of character and unique furniture pieces when we began our transformation.  The living room lacked lighting and the fireplace was nondescript.


We started by painting the brick to lighten the area and added a more substantial mantle in crisp white.  A paneled overmantle with crown moulding detail was custom created by Wade Craig and wired to house bird sconces chosen by the homeowner.  This created both a focal point for the room as well as adding needed lighting.  The new mirror above the fireplace is a better scale than the original one, which was relocated in the home. 

 

Beautiful embroidered silk drapes add width and height to the widows and voluminous balloon shades with beaded trim add privacy and glamorous detail.

 














A beautiful rug in lavendar raisin and peach tones warms the wood floor.



What a beautiful feature to warm up those wintry nights!
Do you have a room in need of a makeover?  Give me a call.........
Maybe your home will be a Makeover Monday feature!
