Remodeling...Done!

The study/hall bathroom redo turned out to be quite a bit of work!  It was a job for a professional and fortunately he has a boom box to keep him company and a toolbox full of patience as it took quite a bit of time to remove wallpaper and ready the walls for paint!  As the week rolled along, so did the paint and for the most part both rooms are back together.

After


Gone is the white-striped wallpaper and in its place a nice warm golden glow! The shower curtain...well, it speaks quite nicely for itself!  I found the bird prints at the Florida House at Pier Park.  I am still on the lookout for shades for the lamps on either side of the mirror...and some really cool botanical print for the wall opposite the birds!



The biggest change in the study besides the clean look of the walls is the clean look of the bookshelves!
Before...too much stuff on shelves, what is that picture floating about on the wall, worn out pillows on the chairs, and the standing cue rack behind my chair...ugh!!





After...minus a lot of books and actually the walls are more golden honey-colored than orange!

Some things are still not done...there is a Blue Ray player/sound system still to be installed (that's my son-in-law's job :), the floor stand of pool cues...it's got to go. I am still looking for a rack that can be hung on the wall.  Also, one picture is left to be rehung and new pillows and throws are out there somewhere waiting for me to wander upon them!!
