Need help or advice on decorating/filling empty space in the bathroom
Comments (12)Oh. Like magic. :o) For sanitary reasons, I’m not sure what you could put there. How about a couple of floating shelves on the wall up above? If you don’t need the storage/display space, I still think just an art print would do it. It is a bit of an awkward spot but its location right next to the toilet kind of gives it an ick factor.

Comments (4)I would take off the indent above the fireplace, replace the mantle with the same size piece of wood, and update the tiles. Gut the area where the TV is now and have a custom cabinet, flush with the fireplace wall, with an open shelve for the TV just a few inches lower than what it is now. Below the TV two wide drawers, one about 5 or 6 inches deep and the other about 11 or 12. Above the TV, two cupboards....See MoreNew construction, empty fireplace box. Need advice
Comments (0)Hi all - we recently bought a new construction house and I had the builder add the box on the perimeter of the living room so the fireplace doesn’t protrude into the room, and now I’m exploring what to put in it. We have propane so that will be the fuel, but I’m having a really hard time finding what a “normal” propane fireplace is that people would put in a new home. Not looking for anything super fancy or modern, just a normal gas (propane) fireplace. Obviously we want a vented unit. Can anybody point me in the right direction so that I can start shopping around and getting an idea of price? Again, just looking for a “normal” propane fireplace insert. Thanks!...See MoreAdvice needed for Large empty space behind couch
Comments (15)Maybe pull that sofa out from the window wall a bit and make a continuous walkway in front of the windows and all around the sofa that includes that small area. Why fill it up with anything? Let it be. Maybe move the dogs bed into that corner and out of the walk space that it appears to be in now. That is a surprisingly small room to be graced with such large windows....See Morel pinkmountain
