Three Cheers!

..because the book nook is finally done.



I still need to figure out a window treatment. Suggestions welcome.



Close up of the cushion fabric. I bought foam and made a cover.



Closer view of the white wash finish and bottom trim which runs along the entire length.



Closer view of the cabinet door detail.



Closer view of top edge trim.



Andrew is happy! (and Daisy says something other than me is getting attention)...



And this horrible picture was taken before we started the remodel. 'Nuf said.

Wow! Looks fabulous! I'll be curious to see which window treatment you go with now. So where did you move your desk? Hubby did good!

I think I am going to put wall words above and then just a simple window treatment. The desk is still in there for the time being but it doesn't look too bad.

Could you whitewash the desk to make it match the bookcase?

What are wall words? Do you think something vertical rather than horizontal on the window would make it look more pleasing?

I think it looks GREAT!

It looks great! Andrew did a super job, as usual!! How about curtains with loops like I have in the front two bedrooms.
I agree with Somerhill about the going with vertical treatment.

Annette it looks GREAT! I would be so excited to cuddle up there and read a book or magazine! I would go with a half curtain at the top in one of those colors from the fabric?

WOW! I'm impressed!
