So we are getting ready to finish another room, the front room AKA the "Wine Room". The husband wants to get this done sooner rather than later because he wants a space to hold meetings that is more professional. So I've been coming up with ideas and color schemes. I want to stick with neutrals on the furniture pieces but I am dying to have some bold navy in the house. I love that navy/grey/taupe look, So i'm thinking navy velvet curtains, plush mink colored chairs, a navy rug and some rich rustic wood accents. We will also put in a small wine fridge but hide it in a credenza. As for the feature wall, I'm still stuck on doing it up in reclaimed wood but don't want it to be permanent. I found a product called Stikwood that is stick on and very thin so I can do it myself and it's removable if we should ever move or change our minds but it's EXPENSIVE! It would be at least $1,200.00 up to $1,700.00 just for that little wall! We'll see where I'm at with the budget after all of the pieces for the room are purchased, maybe I will do a wallpaper on that wall to save costs.

Love this "window" mirror from Ballard Designs for above the credenza

your reclaimed wood wall DOES NOT have to cost that much!!! Have you seen my wall. check out my post on my RECLAIMED WOOD WALL. Found it on craigslist, you have to be patient and look all the time. Its only nailed up, can easily come down, i think it cost us about $200 give or take to do that wall, and its AUTHENTIC !!! No prefab stuff. We found ours in 84 PA, its farm country out here ya know. LOL.
ReplyDeleteAll we did was stagger it, cut it to size and nail it up, honestly one of the most easiest and rewarding project ever and not all that permanent either....

THANK YOU DW!!! I use to live by 84 and my brother lived there for several years, we use to WALK to the spring house down 136 when we were kids to get chocolate milk! It was a walk though, we lived in a neighborhood on 136 close to Davis School Rd. Can you send me the info on where you go it? Those boards look amazing! And I think I can do it myself, the only part I'm concerned about is the trim, would I have to take off the bottom piece of trim or would it look OK just to start above it you think? I really should just hire you and your husband to do it for me :) 10 bucks and hour plus some beers?? lol!
