What One Computer Did To My Den (Makeover)

What a difference a contest entry can make! I entered Up To Date Interiors giveaway for a free e-design room makeover from the wonderful Kathy and to my surprise and delight I won. Now I have redone just about every room in our little 1,300 square foot ranch style house but I was stumped on what to do with the den which is of course the largest and most used room in the house.
I sent Kathy pictures of the room – told her about the styles I like and she took it from there. Here is the inspiration board she sent me.
She stuck with my love of industrial farmhouse and gave me a few ideas (while utilizing as many of the items I already had) and then gave me suggestions for moving around my furniture. Look she even included replicas of the two paintings of my doggies!
As you can see the big elephant in the room is TV placement and that is something that I specifically asked for help with. We originally wanted to mount the TV above the fireplace but given building code and a low sofa we would be breaking our necks to watch TV so that was out. We settled on putting it in front of our fireplace and that is where it stayed for two years.
Kathy’s solution was to move the TV to the wall opposite the fireplace and make a gallery wall. I showed you how I made the string art and talked about arranging the gallery wall here.

Stacy @ anygirlcandoit.com on Sep 15, 2014Look at Wayward Whimsy on Facebook. She is in Alabama and does great work - you will love her stuff. I have ordered four or five pieces from her now and I have been overjoyed with every one of them! Tell her I sent you ;-)
