A Family Room in Progress

 

It’s fun to finally have something to share again with Susan’s ever popular makeover.  I’m joining her today at Between Naps on the Porch for Metamorphosis Monday.

 

For those who are new to my blog, my house is still somewhat new and we are ever so slowly doing window treatments and finishing up the rooms in the way I would really like.  Does a room ever totally get finalized?  For me, I think not.  There are still things I want to do in here but at least I’m off to a good start.

 

Here’s the family room in our lower level walkout basement before:

 

 

 

Here’s the fabric I decided to go with:

 

The window treatments are up and I’m excited with the new look!  On the shelves you can see some of my recent thrifting/garage sale finds such as the fox hunt tray and the little dog.  I’m still working on these shelves trying to achieve the right look.

 

 

 

 

The entertainment center is on another wall.  I recently found these pictures to hang next to it.  They have sort of a Ralph Lauren feel, don’t you think?

 

 

 

 

 

Here’s a closeup of some items on a shelf.  I found the old pipe holder, featuring a hunting dog at an antique store.  The tiny little hunt plate was at another antique store and the marbles belonged to my husband when he was a child.

 

 

 

More fox hunt pictures…………

 

 

 

I see now that I have these pictures in place I could have taken more to show the full room.  Will I ever get faster at this?

 

 

 

I’ll save more pictures for a different day.

 

In the meantime, let’s go over and get inspired at Susan’s with all the other room makeovers!!

 

Thanks so much for stopping by to see me on 47th Street today! I love meeting new friends and reading your comments!
