Reno Update

Let’s see- it’s been so long, can I still remember how to do this? I thought you might like to see how the new living room is looking.  Griffin, on the sofa, is happy to have his place back!

I love the tile set in the “hopscotch”pattern and the crown molding is a nice finishing touch. I never would have chosen that wall color but the decorator suggested it and she was right, it brightened the room and goes great with the fireplace stones. She also suggested removing the curtains and using only Roman shades, which I like.  The new rug looks great.  The wall behind the chairs used to have four smaller framed counted cross stitch pictures – Jill suggested one large quilt art landscape, which could happen some time. Right now it is bare.  The space IS small, but with no change of floor surface between the rooms it seems larger and the porcelain tile is a dream to clean! The best part?  I have my studio back!

    I’m missing something. Why is this a “Reno Update”? Glad you are getting back to “ordinary” life. Love, Del

    I’m missing something – what does “Reno” mean? I don’t see the connection to “update”.

    Thanks everyone. Del- you just don’t watch enough HGTV – reno is short for renovation!
