Anyway ... I was cleaning the bedroom yesterday (specifically, taking all of the stuff off of our dresser and dusting) and I had a brainstorm. We have a painting stored in the living room that might look good in this spot! It's huge and I bought it last year at Covesville Store, intending to use it above the mantel in the living room. I quickly scurried downstairs to get the painting, brought it upstairs and leaned it against the wall to try it out in the spot, and ....
... it looks WAY better here than it ever would have in the living room. The light is different on this side of the house, and it beautifully sets off the colors of the trees and mountains in the painting. I think it's perfect.
Now I just have to get out my tools and hang it properly ... maybe tomorrow.
