At this point I've decided to just be amused every time we find another one, because my other option is horrified. lolTina - Our Rustic Rootshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16089455840430154833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-33964881923807249312012-06-19T13:45:03.119-05:002012-06-19T13:45:03.119-05:00Your house is looking lovely!

It is the room that we are slowly transforming into the library- but currently it's a catch all of all sorts of stuff, including my plant starting set-up. It is so poorly insulated and drafty that it hasn't been terribly useful and was the repository for boxes when we moved in. As construction gets finished throughout the house the boxes are dwindling. I think most of what is left in there are boxes of books and we don't have all the bookshelves constructed yet. When we finally tackle the interior walls, V plans to put in built in bookshelves between the studs. But I'm envisioning a large overstuffed chair or chaise in front of that window for reading.
