Fireplace

I don't think we've posted photos of our living room yet. It's definitely my favorite room in our place. The sun shines through the bay windows every morning and the windows overlook our new neighborhood street /street trees. We love the vintage fireplace surround and curved ceiling edges. We plan to paint the room but still are still deciding on colors... any ideas?


The marble on the fireplace was from the previous rehab job done about 20 years ago, we aren't super fond of the purple and want to replace it with something brighter and lighter to help the mantle 'pop'. Any suggestions?

Deck Ideas

Here's a photo of our deck. We would love to brighten it up with a colorful table and chairs, galvanized containers and hanging plants. Here are a couple of our ideas. Fermob has some great bistro furniture that comes in a variety of colors. CB2 and Pottery Barn both have some of the galvanized planters we like... Then, we'll finish it off with a ton of shade plants.
