Yes I do need some shelves! I am waiting for my husband to build me some, but if he takes too long I might just buy it!
I agree with putting the couch where u say, i was thinking of putting it on the opposite side but I like your idea better so I can see out the window.
I was thinking of painting the walls a yellow color or an orange , not a super bright yellow , something to make it feel lively and not so dull. And paiting the darker room either a blue or a green, or maybe the larger room a green color since my theme is going to be nature based...AHHHH decisions decisions
Thank you!
