Before photo of Livingroom. Yes, that is Flat Black paint! I used Behr's Marquee Paint & Primer to cover it with only 1 coat. The previous owner painted the brick wall in one color in hopes of 'covering it up'.

After photo of Livingroom. I used four colors and a handy technique to give life back to the brick wall.

Front entry/stairs with so much potential....

Front entry/stairs. The picture was the inspiration piece from this homeowners previous location. It needed to have a special place in the new home.

Front entry//bay window. A beautiful bay window is perfect for creating drama!

Front livingroom bay window. The scarf was the homeowners favorite window treatment from the previous home - perfect for the bay window!

Diningroom. View from bay window. The beautiful light fixture was relocated to the 2nd level hallway.

Diningroom. A great view of that beautiful light fixture.

Diningroom. The light fixture was used in the living room in the previous home and I think it is perfect for this room too.

Diningroom. A lamp with a little flair adds fun to this room.

Lower level Reading nook to the right. Again, so much potential for this little space. I loved it as soon as I saw it!

Reading nook. A cozy little get-a-way. The light fixture was personally designed for the previous home and works just as wonderful in this space too.

Across from Reading nook

Lower level Family room. Another personally designed light fixture for the previous home that adds a bit of personality to the room.

Master Bedroom. This image requires imagination!

Master Bedroom. A tranquil resting place....
