Before and After Living Room Update

Hey guys! I added a faux brick panel wall, a new chandelier, paint, and furniture. :)

    Very pretty room! Great job.

    Everything is very nice except the heavy looking shelf above the couch. I would be afraid to sit there; afraid the shelf would fall down on my head.

    Lovely, that faux brick is the perfect touch, really made the whole room, shelf & all. Enjoy!

    I'm happy everyone likes the wall. It started off bright red brick! It was such a time consuming project!

    Wow nice bricks on the wall..It room looked like a
    modernized living room inside an elegant castle. I love the chandelier and the
    floating shelf atop the sofa. So neutral but classic…This is my kind of taste.

    Is the brick a thin brick tile or a faux paint treatment? It looks great!

    Spectacular room. So inviting and warm. I was scared when I read faux brick but this is lovely.

    You did a great job.

    Geez,,,so amazing, it looked like a living room inside a
    mansion. I love the combination of grey and browns. You also did a good job
    with the hanging shelf atop the sofa. It breaks the monotony. I love it…

    Tregli, I have never used faux brick before and was wondering if you were happy with the up-close appearance of the faux bricks versus real ones? Do you think people would notice that the treatment was faux brick? I am considering a project myself and would really appreciate your input! I love your project and the color scheme you chose!

  • 10 years ago

    @pa fine arts, antiques & decorating: I LOVE IT! It looks extremely real and it's better than wallpaper because it's textured and appears and feels real. I say go for it!

    Thanks, Tregli!

    Sure thing....I used the panels from Home Depot....they were very deep ree, not my style. I white washed them and sanded them. Then I actually added caulk in between each piece to mimic the appearance of brick. :)

    Well done!
  • 10 years ago

    what wonderful advice. I appreciate this bit of knowledge since I am having difficulty with my own home. TY

  • 10 years ago

    I love the wall and the shutters and all. I am not fond of the dark, heavy shelf but totally get the look. wonderful job on the brick wall.

    I love your furniture selections. Can't believe you turned those ugly Home Depot panels into that beautiful wall. Very talented!
