The family room. The name says it all.
We spend a lot of time together in this room, but I would really like to utilize it even better. We watch TV, movies, and play Wii in here. I would like a space to play board games though (coffee table?) and make it more inviting when people visit. They always seem to stay at the dining room table. When we moved in we decided that we wanted the room to be comfortable but it still had to look nice since it is pretty open to the rest of the house. (This is a no toy room! You can bring them in, but they have to leave when your done.) There are many things I love about the room, like the ceilings and the size, but there are some things that I would like to improve upon. Number one being the fireplace. I have NO idea what to do about it. I also think it needs some extra warming style since two of the walls are stone. You'll see...

| I like to have personal items around. Handmade is even better. |

| My husband started making these collages of the major trips we have taken together as a couple and with our daughter. So far we have Disney, Chicago, Las Vegas, New York, and Washington D.C.. Its fun to look back on our favorite moments. Also in this photo on the couch is a blanket my mother knitted for me for our new house. I like it cozy! |

Presenting the problem...

| HELP! What can I do here?? It bugs me that the fireplace is not centered between the windows. Why would you build it like that? |

| I love the colors and how they used the ottoman as a coffee table. Multi-functionality. |
