Heatilator fireplace re-design
Comments (1)It could be that you have a leak in your heatilator. There were often seams that were sealed by one means or another, and if the seam sprang a leak, you could get smoke in through the system....See Morekitchen with fireplace great room redesign
Comments (73)So many extra bedrooms is forcing your actual living spaces to be so small. It seems like such a shame to have so much square feet with so few for actually living in. If you have groups of in-laws at your home at one time, I don't see one room where 6 adults could all sit at one time to visit with adequate space for chairs for everyone without being squeezed together and no extra elbow room. And what does that mean that they travel in groups anyway? How big of a group? I think the plans you have been given, especially Julius, are brilliant because they solve the problems you requested help with but the small living spaces create another problem, IMHO. I only have my tablet with me and haven't figured out how to do floorplans on it or I would try to work something up for you. Sorry. The only thing I can quickly suggest without doing a drawing is to make the wall between the living room and front bedroom a good quality, wide sliding door and then putting a hide-a-bed couch in there so you can use it as an extension of your living room. We have a similar set up and I love the spaciousness. If I wasn't traveling, I would post a photo....See MoreNeed to redesign the Fireplace - Help!
Comments (6)I think the one wall that is most likely to best accomodate the t.v. (the wall to the left of the fireplace) is not shown in the photos. If the t.v. works on that wall, seating could then be re-designed accordingly....See MoreHelp with living room redesign
Comments (60)thanks! the sunset painting is temp, had a nail there already from some Halloween decoration, but good point centering it. Glad this rug works because the other one was a wool rug and it was a pain to clean and would shed so much. One thing I wanted to ask, I hate the way the ceiling beams connect to the wall, it looks like Lego and cheap looking. I want to add a triangular piece of wood that screws into the beam and the wall (painted the same for as the beams). Is there a name for this? Looked up wood beam wall connection but nothing (English is not my first language). I feel like I might have to customer make this thing myself. I'll try to post a photo of what I mean....See Moresoonermagicmama
