Still need to: make window seat cushion, fix curtains, replace curtain over small window, hang matchstick blinds to replace white "wood" blinds, paint walls (color of common area)/ceiling/trim, do something about wall art....ugh.
Behind the curtains is a large built-in bookcase, filled with my husband's books for work. Below the ledge/window seat is more storage. I made curtains for this area, too.
You can somewhat see the lower curtain panels here.
This is an area for sitting, but it's in BIG need of a makeover.
This room is mainly filled with pictures of our family. The artwork behind the stand was done by my sister.
