Comfortable, Sophisticated Family Room

The O'Kane family tree, framed by recycling the old wood paneling that reminds Liam of an Irish whiskey barrel, is now a prominent feature in the updated room. To create similar artwork, start with a purchased picture frame and build an outer frame to surround it. Attach pieces of paneling to the frames to cover the space between them. Stain and seal the wood or enhance it with fabric, paint or decorative paper. Add a favorite picture and hang!
