This picture was taken at Christmas time roughly 10 years ago -- give or take a few years. This was before trim, carpet and lighting (though we were inventive and used icicle lighting year round for a number of years!) This year our tree is much smaller -- when we first built this living room all we could think about was the BIGGEST tree we could fit. But this year I wanted to keep the game table where the tree usually goes, and I created a much more intimate space.
The only thing that remains the same is the Morris chair -- the most expensive piece of furniture I ever bought -- and it goes to show, if you want something to last, and maintain its original integrity, pay for it! The leather chair that is in the far right corner is now in my bedroom and is so bleached out there is no way you would have ever thought it was brown!
