Fireplace Remodel is Finally Complete!

Our fireplace remodel is finally complete so here is a little tour of our living room.  And a picture of the fireplace before and after.  It was converted from wood-burning to gas.  Much more light in the living room now!

 
Before
 
AND
 
After
 
 
A little close-up
 
 
And going to the left - the valances in the living room are made from tobacco sticks and wood with a fabric insert
 

 
To the right of the picture below is the door to the kitchen - the art piece is some sort of gaming antique with a VERY loud clacker
 
 
This is the foyer on the left side of the front door

 
And then the rug hooked picture as you turn towards the hall - with a snoozing Shadow below

 
To the left of the hall - this is an old painter's ladder that I painted multiple shades - next to the chair is a vintage wooden wagon that Jack gave me on our first Christmas together 31 years ago; the gumball machine in the wagon holds marbles

 
Sorry this one is a wee bit blurry but I just love the artist who painted and collaged these pictures and have collected a few over the years

 
 
Hope you enjoyed the tour!
