The front living room

 
What we have done:
  • Put in a new stove pipe for the wood burning stove
  • Removed two large gold knobs on the stove
  • Removed the chandelier and placed it into the dining area
What we love:
  • The built in shelves
  • The crown molding
  • The original window
  • The wood burning stove
What we plan on fixing/changing:
  • Paint the walls an approved white color for projecting on. This room will be come our movie watching room. We plan on having a small sectional and a projector will be placed on the ceiling that will show movies on the north wall (opposite of the window). The only color on the walls in this room will be where the mirrors are.
  • Paint the ceiling
  • Move the ceiling fan off of the center beam and move it to where the old chandelier was located
  • Take down the old light fixtures on the sides of the rooms
  • Take down or cover up the mirrors
  • Put brick behind the fireplace. I think before we can afford that, we will just paint the existing faux rock.
  • Paint the shelves white.
  • Replace the floor with a neutral carpet
  • Buy a new couch for this room
  • Move the computer stuff downstairs
  • Replace the base where the fireplace stands with concrete or a stone slab. Paint it until we can afford it.
  • Install projector
  • Paint trim
