Dining room (before pics)
Thursday, July 15th, 2004This is how our dining room looked when we bought the house. The intact, unstained woodwork was one of the main factors that drew us to this house. We had looked at so many houses that had painted or, even worse, missing woodwork. We really fell in love with the look of the flat-grained fir wainscotting and box beams. We later replaced the fixture with a more appropriate (Craftsman) one, and we moved this one out onto the back patio. We were not, however, very fond of the fact that all the windows had been removed from the room, cutting off any potential for airflow.
