Brightening Up A Corner

This is a corner in the family room down in our basement.  I did have a picture hanging on the wall with a wide dark frame but took it down about 3 months ago because it just seemed to dark.  This morning I thought about hanging platters on the wall so I went searching through my house and found three white platters.  The before picture is not very good but it is the only one I have and I wanted you to see the difference. 




Isn't that amazing what a difference three little platters make.  The whole room feels brighter now.

Here is the same corner with a few Fall accents.



Thanks for Stopping by!

  2. I adore that look above the old sewing machine! I have several sewing machine tables. They are close to my heart and I'll never get rid of them.

  9. This is EXACTLY what my new mission is for my house. I feel it's just not bright enough and am putting white in many more places. I could not agree with you more about the difference it makes.
