“Hello guest! Welcome to my home! Can I take your coat? Let me just set it here on my massive eyesore! You’ll be sure to remember it on your way out, because how could your eye be drawn anywhere else besides this gaping maw of wood paneling shrouded in what appears to be bricks stolen from a soot-incrusted chimney! Hey, where are you going?”
Lucky for Staci, she didn’t have to live with the brick-thing for long. See more of its beautiful transformation HERE.

October 26, 2009 at 10:59 PMWonderful makeover! Love the beadboard. Now it looks like a charming built-in, rather than an outdoor fireplace.

June 10, 2010 at 1:31 PMaww, now I LIKE the brick thing. It would have been nice just painted white, no need for all that wood.
