I wanted to wait until the whole re do was finished, but I am still waiting on a little clean-up things, doors to some cabinetry (in another room) and the front door. And I don’t have my very cool new chairs and ottoman! But I wanted to show you the wall, and the no wall. It looks a little different than it looks and feels in person. The stone is cool, and I had my fireplace redone to match. It doesn’t look quite as cool here. But nevertheless, the room is so open! The lighting is soooo much better! (pendants and new under-cabinet lights, as well as a new chandelier). Great paint, holes and several years of babies and kids all painted over. Looks so good I think I’ll clean the carpet upstairs and wash the outside windows. Amazing what a little fresh paint will do for the room. But okay, back to the useless half wall. Here we go: Stupid half wall. No Stupid half wall:
Thank you all so much! You know how it is when you embark on something like this – you really don’t know if it will turn out. There is still lots that needs to be finished, but I am so happy that the room has opened up so.
Nice. It looks very open now. Clever use of stone. Congrats on a job well done.
Oooooh! I love it – the stonework is gorgeous!
It looks amazing! The stone arch is phenomenal!
Oooh so gorgeous! Huge improvement!!! You have great taste.
I love it! Your kitchen could be on HGTV. Great job.
Ok, I’m TOTALLY jealous! I love the stonework, love the open look — what a transformation!
Kudos for such a modern, classy design and now I’m itching to do some things to my house, too. I think I’ve caught the remodel bug. Thanks!
thanks, all! I realize it is hard to kind of “see” it in these photos, but it really does look cool
I love the way it turned out! Looks like a “wall tear-down” party is in order.
So pretty!
it is beee-youuu-ti-full!!!
love it!
Truly, truly gorgeous, Mz London. Congratulations!
Beautiful, Love to stone work. Your kitchen looks like it’s so cozy and homey.
the stone
How pretty! I had to look at it several times and realized that your table was on one side of the wall and your living room on the other. So open now! I love the stone.
