House Tour – Library

Now if you turn around, directly opposite the Dining Room, is the Library.

Library IL

 

Here’s what I started with.

IL Den Before

Again, we changed out the flooring, painted the walls and trim.  Then I built this wall of bookcases and that was that!

Built in library bookcases

Bookshelves Materials –  MDF, Pine and Poplar.
Arches –  I created a template on paper and cut them out with a jigsaw then sanded the crap out of them to “perfect” the arch.
Rug – Home Goods (I think)
Armless chairs – Pottery Barn Outlet      (When I lived in San Antonio…miss that store)
Giant wooden bowl – Cabo sometime in the past
Black hutch – Pottery Barn Outlet (It was damaged, but nothing a putty magician like me couldn’t handle)
