Before, this space was mismatched and messy. Now, it is classically styled to highlight the home’s best architectural features. The fireplace is painted earthy green to match the adjacent dining room. The metal details around the faux firebox are striped of years of paint to bring them back to their original grandeur. More charm and character is given to the fireplace with a new wood mantel, metal artwork and wrought-iron-style sconces. Neutral wall color, plush furnishings and elegant new window treatments pull the look together in a cohesive manner.

Cost breakdown:
kitchen project $820
furniture $527
sconces and mantel $80
art and accessories $285
lighting $160
paint and supplies $125
