Great transformation! Very good job!
WOW – this room is totally tranformed! Love the covered bench and amazed at the light fixutre!!!
The first thing I thought when I saw your “before” photo was “I hope didn’t give those curtain rods the boot” and I’m so glad you didn’t! The trim on the table is unique and really adds to the room. Love it all!
Oh no…those actually go through the living area as well that is almost redone. I love the curtain rods…they pay homage to our outdoorsy area that we live in. Cause I am not too into the true cabin style, this was a compromise :). Thanks for the kind comments! Janel
Love this! Such a great makeover!
Thank you so much for the kind comments about this room, I appreciate it!
So fun! And LOVE the price!
Great Job!
Price is right, isn’t it! Thanks for the kind comments!
Even though you already had them I have to say I LOVE your curtain rods! Great job on the revamp! I am very curious what metal you used around the table? It’s very possible that it would have worked for an idea that I had at one time… I ended up going a different direction because I couldn’t find something that worked and didn’t even know what to search for.
