From 1985 to Cottage Chic Family Room

Getting to know our Family Room from from Warm tones to cool tones, from horrible to beautiful! Well, I hate to sound like that…just quite the difference.

Just as the rest of our home we kept to a neutral pallet sticking with creams, grays, black, white, and wood tones. You all have already seen my Fireplace Reveal which does showcase some of the family room. I posted all about how we refinished the fireplace including white-washing the brick and adding a DIY mantle.

As well as a sneak peak of my Refinished Craigslist Cabinet.

I guess the best way to describe this room is just by going in and showing you the pics!

But First the Before!

And the Progress!

Well, you know there is always more to come, but how about that before?? Painting the paneling made all the difference. Have any of you painted paneling? Don’t you love the texture of it? That’s why we chose to keep it there.

  5. This is GORGEOUS. PLEASE, please, please post what you did to the brick on your fireplace. I want to do a similar treatment to mine. Love it!!

    1. Thanks so much Jen! Yes whitewashing the brick was so simple to do, but just takes some time to do it! I would love to see how your brick turns out…so glad you stopped by!

  6. Beautiful! May I ask what paint color you used? I am looking to paint our paneling as well!

      1. I love these colors. I see that you used the Pale Oak for the walls, what did you use for the trim and mantel? Also, what is the pink that you painted your daughters room? I want to run out and get samples to try out in my spaces! Love everything you’ve done!

        1. Oh Thank you so much Kathy!

          The Mantel is Winter’s Gate by Benjamin Moore
          The Stripes on the Wall are London Fog by Benjamin Moore
          and my daughters room : ) is I believe Cherry Blossom by Benjamin Moore…it is such a perfect dusty pink though ( I will double check this one for you)
          All the trim is Simply White also by Benjamin Moore.
          I appreciate your sweet comment and I will have a paint color list coming soon to my page. Have a wonderful weekend!

  7. This is completely amazing that you saw the potential in this room and made it so beautiful. Congrats!

  8. Was wondering where you purchased the wreath on the left of the fireplace love it. Just found your blog. Love your style.
