All tagged wall treatment
I sure do love a good Ikea hack and boy do I have an AWESOME one for you today!
You see I had this long wall in my family room that had my Bubbly Bar Cabinet on it and nothing else. I had thought of putting a built-in bench and seating next to it because we have a pool table in that room, but ultimately we need more storage in our house. So, I said goodbye to the Bubbly Bar Cabinet and set out to make something more AWESOME!
I think my vanity is 50 years old. It has layers and layers of old paint on it… purple, yellow red, peach, navy and who knows. Well, since I am not able to replace it yet… I totally want to build an AWESOME one… I decided what is one more layer of paint!?! Well another layer of paint and some scraps and I transformed this vanity into something that will last til I can build a new one.
So I have a very odd shaped living room… long and narrow with two openings and a big picture window. It has been a challenge to figure out how to arrange the furniture in the space, especially because my husband will not give up his giant speakers and giant tv! But I have settled on a layout that works for us and have lots of plans to completely makeover the space. I want all sorts of built-ins to hide speakers and get stuff up off the floor so it is easier to clean up all of Oscar’s hair and dirt. But until the time comes to do all that I wanted to something that would spice up the room, its totally boring right now, and give me something pretty to look at. Plus, I have been acquiring lots of plants lately in hopes of becoming a “crazy plant lady” , so I decided to makeover this odd corner space because it gets good light for my plants.
