Wood wall
Those stairs!
Love the wood plank wall
Speed up table setting. Storage space also is an extra benefit of this half-wall, which separates the dining and living areas. Shelving for glasses and vases on this side facilitates table setting. The other side features shelving and a place to mount the TV. Note how the divider’s placement allows the air to circulate and the light to flow.

I’m liking the wood accent on the ceiling
3. Don’t forget to factor in the tax. A project is taking shape in your mind, and perhaps it has gotten as far as your computer screen or notebook. Ideas, sketches, saved photos and wish lists gather momentum until you have something that looks close to a job for your contractor. You’ve overseen projects before, whether small or large — perhaps a decorating job, some bedroom carpentry, a new bathroom or even an addition. You’re proud of how organized you’ve become: no last-minute decision frenzy midproject for you; no realizing that the tiles you finally selected can’t be delivered until weeks after the job is meant to be done. You’ve discussed the rough costs with your professional and trimmed your budget accordingly. You’ve thought of everything. Except … hang on … what’s that larger-than-expected figure at the bottom of your contractor’s quote? Oh yes, the tax! Give yourself a break: If it’s any consolation, forgetting about this potential budgetbuster isn’t just a rookie mistake; it’s a pitfall even for seasoned renovators. If you’re starting a new project, jot down a reminder about the tax on a large Post-It and leave it somewhere prominent!
