Very calm space

So pretty! What a great job! Can you post a before picture please?

Sure!

Nice job! Did you take the after photo?

Beautifully done! You did a great job with color and furniture choices!

@lovebugsmom Not sure what you mean? Its as real as it gets! Lol

Very nice! What is the wall treatment behind the sofa?

Love the soft subtle colors. Would you consider hanging the shelf a bit lower? Probably not that easy at this point.

What other furniture do you have in the room? It looks nice.

I like the gray chandelier but I see what people are saying about it looking photoshopped. Maybe it's the faux painted wall.

It's home depot's red brick paneling. I white washed it and hung 3 panels side by side. You can see in this picture, the three distinct separation lines between each panel. I decided to caulk it to mimic real brick and give another layer of white wash.

Beautiful!

Very pretty room. tregli70, when you say "caulk for the brick panels, did you use caulk as opposed to grout or something? I'd love the explanation, it turned out great!

barncatz, the paneling is wood fiber. You have to use caulk with the paneling because grout is for masonry products. The OP purchased 4x8 sheets of this and whitewashed them.

Yes, I just used Caulk to fill in the separation lines between each panel. They're still there, but a lot less noticeable. Then I ran the Caulk randomly throughout the brick wall.

am I the only one who thinks it's really weird to hang a giant shelf with stuff all over it just above a sofa? I wouldn't want a bunch of candles burning right above me, no matter how nice it looks. it does look nice though... like for a photo shoot.

Haha yeah I only use the lumanera flameless candle to the left ....would never light real candles...anywhere in my house for that matter! Flameless = life!
