So close. . .

My favorite room got completed today, and I have to admit. . .I am proud. I absolutely adore this room, with it's natural light and gorgeous floors. The green is calming, yet is just the right burst of color. The white trim, window, and mantle really make the room look so much larger and polished. The painting that is propped against the mantle (will eventually be hung) really brings it all together. This painting was in the bedroom of our old condo, and I don't think I could have come up with a better piece for the new place. The greens throughout matches the wall color perfectly, and really ties together the blue from the kitchen and dining room. I also love how the red in the painting just makes the brick in the fireplace pop. Our friends Nick and Cindy stopped by today and Nick helped us move the couch and recliner in. I can't wait to share pictures once the room is decorated and really complete.

Before & After. Oh what a little paint can do. . .

Bill also finished up the kitchen flooring today, and it's looking great!
