Please raise your hand if you live in a home built sometime around 1950.
Please keep your hand raised if that sweet little home has this awkwardly big hallway/atrium area where the old furnace used to be.
While you will get beautiful transom windows above all your doors…you will be stuck with the awkwardly big hallway/atrium and a giant hole in the floor where the furnace used to be.
In our walk-through, (photo above-doesn’t show quite how big the area is…it’s about 8ft. by 7ft.) I mentioned to Joel how awesome it would be to turn this space into our “library room” (a.k.a. hallway with a bookshelf).
Here’s the process leading up to our now completed “Library Room”!
Okay, please forgive my husband’s offensive frat shirt. He says, “what better shirt to ruin?”
Anyway.
Here it is now!
I love the molding up top. It looks like it’s always been a part of the house!
P.S. It is very difficult to fit all your ministry/seminary/fun books fit onto one bookshelf.
All re-styling suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks, Joel, for a beautiful transformation of our hallway area!!
