I didn't realize that's how long it's been since my last post. It feels like only days. Much has happened since Christmas. The biggest change is our new piano! My husband bought one for us for Christmas and I had to make room for it. We had been talking about purchasing one for years so where to put it was not a problem. Pianos are rather touchy and so there was only one choice for our house. Welcome to our music room.
There used to be a book shelf and an old Victrola on this wall. This meant removing the books and getting rid of half of our collection.
It took us an entire week to go through them all, touch up walls, rearrange the furniture, and make the trip to the goodwill. On the day it arrived everyone had to play and try it out. 
What do you think? I have some plans for more art above the piano and new wall color. We also need a lamp to be able to read the music clearly so the decor will be changing. I am on the lookout for a better sofa(no more red), chairs and perhaps white washing the tool chest/coffee table. The curtain rods also need to be replaced as they are not sturdy enough and are pulling out of the wall. 
This is now the room where everyone wants to be and its one of the smallest rooms in our home. Of course that could have something to do with the fact that is one of the warmest.
Your house just keeps getting prettier and prettier!
ReplyDeleteThe piano looks great there! We'll have to have a hymn sing next time we come to visit. Tell David to practice.
ReplyDeleteThe kids look like they are preforming surgery on the piano!
