A Final Remodel

So we finally did a small remodel to our living/dining room. For those of you who remember, we have that really LONG room with no separation of the two rooms. We had always said we wanted to somehow divide the room without it being awkward or making the rooms feel too small. Well, we found a carpenter and described to him our idea and this is what he came up with! Two half-walls with a column that ties in to the ceiling! So we moved the piano to the play room which is perfect since it was bouncing off the wood like crazy and so loud. Now it is on carpet and the sound gets absorbed which has made a huge difference in our evenings with kids practicing. And this is the end result, not painted, of course. I will post what it looks like later since we did finish painting. It is amazing what a small project and some crown moulding and a chairrail will do to a room!!! Pretty cool ......
