This room that nosotros role equally a identify unit of measurement surface area was originally the dining room of this sometime house. Since it is towards the dorsum of the house, where in that location is to a greater extent than privacy, nosotros role it equally a sitting room in addition to I moved the dining room to the front, across the hall from the living room. The wall color is a unclean aqua in addition to is genuinely truer here, but without the flash the motion prototype is likewise dark....so the walls expect a chip greener inwards most of the pictures.

   Lisa Farmer-

A chip brighter! The room is perfect for a chip of TV, reading, or when Zach is hither it gets turned into a game room. We are large boardgamers.

The Welsh closet sits on a base of operations amongst a carved scalloped apron in addition to cabriole legs.
