Living Room Update

This room in previous years had always been used as a casual room where family would gather to watch television. It has a beautiful bay window, a large fireplace, original wood floors from the early 1900's and nice crown molding. Due to the fact that this room already had these wonderful features, I wanted to glam it up a bit. I thought it would make a great living room for guests to gather, as it is directly off from the kitchen. However, my biggest challenge; I was not allowed to paint out the original wood trim. Rather than fight with it, I made it work to my advantage!
