Part 2:
The fireplace seems like a pipe-dream but I am determined to make it happen. Of course, as I say this I have more motivation because I'm home today with Franca and it is chilly in the house. What I would not give to be blogging next to a crackling fireplace!
Moving on. A project that seems more accessible is the parlor shelving. And boy do we need it! This is a little too college apartment for me:
We have now filled that space below the tv with Franca's toys, which has worked very well as a distraction from the electronics. The wires have all been rerouted too. (The tv is tethered to the wall also. If yours is not, do it now!!)
Here is a sketch of the parlor shelving from Marc:
Some inspiration photos.

ReplyDeleteso excited.
so excited.
Have you seen The Brick House's industrial shelving unit? http://www.the-brick-house.com/2009/09/shelving-unit.html I love it. We have floating shelves, built from Ana White's plans. I'm so excited to see what you end up with!
ReplyDeleteThe third image looks inspiring but I'm sure you have something better planned.
ReplyDeleteJessica - I love The Brick House's shelves. I showed it to Marc a while ago, but he wants to do something a little more polished. Bummer.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to think of a place to do something similar to that though...
LOVE the design and the inspiration photos. What's best is that Marc's drawing appears to be in red crayon. THAT is adorable! Y'all ought to frame his work and include it on the wall in the finished piece.
