Before and After

The goal for this living room was to bring it from warm, but dark, to a light, cottage feel.

The walls were brightened up with "Rainwashed" by Sherwin Williams, using their new Emerald line.

Living Room - before

The furniture and walls stayed the same, but you can see how lightening the color makes the room appear more spacious.

The family loves books and reading, so a book nook was added for an inviting space to curl up with a good read.  The shelves and bench (made with a top to open for storage) were made out of pallets being discarded during a local construction project.  The shelves also are made from bead board salvaged from a different project.
