Building it in

As you are all well aware, I am working furiously to get some spaces done in my own home. I am actually rounding the corner on the completion of two spaces; the living room and bedroom. Let's talk about the living room, shall we? So the space is rectangular and has a mantle/fireplace at the front of the room. You know what that means, peeps? Bare wall flanking on both sides of the mantle. I cannot deal. My first thought was to get massive furniture pieces for both sides to serve as built-ins. Then I decided that was going to be too expensive and also would not achieve the look I was going for. Scratch that. So now I am building it in. Just look at all of these amazing spaces that are the inspiration for my space. 

I mean is there anything more elegant? Truly. I adore the class and tradition it brings to the room. Cannot wait to share my afters with you all. XOXO

  2. I want some built ins in my house so bad. Just imagine all the stuff you could put on the shelves, decorating will be so fun. I am anxious for a little sneak peek of your space:)

  7. LOVE this idea and I think you will be so happy in the long run you are doing this rather then getting two massive pieces of furniture. Share soon because the suspense is killing me!

  9. We are hoping to add built-ins to flank our fireplace. I love the impact AND the storage they'll provide. That first room from Habitually Chic is ahhmazing! Can't wait to see your completed projects!

  10. Great decision to build it in! Nothing better than built in bookcases. Will be stunning I'm sure.

  12. There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.
