Sunroom Mantle Before and After

Hello, Bloggy Friends. I hope you are starting the New Year out right. Yesterday, I didn't do so good.......the first thing I ate for the new year was a piece of fried bacon. :) Today, I've done much better, and I'm joining the "Met Monday" party at Susan's. Go here to visit her.

I found this mantle at the local flea market.

It was in pretty bad shape, and very nasty and dirty.

Here it is now. I cleaned it up, and my contractor caulked and painted it for me.

I bought the wood embellishment for it at Lowes. It helped a lot.

I wanted a flat screened tv, and I needed a little extra heat, so this is the finished product.

I am very happy with it. HD tv is the ONLY way to go, friends!

When I added the sun room, my contractor put some shelves in this empty space. While I loved the shelves, I really needed the storage space more, so I had him add some doors to hide the clutter.

Much better!

Thanks for stopping by! My NY's resolution is to get rid of some of the "stuff" I don't need!

I'm running out of room. :)
