Also, the fireplace is small - so you'll want to be careful not to overwhelm it with something too massive. Get the opinion of a licensed contractor and/or a kitchen and bath designer. Or, ask an interior designer for a consultation. It will be money well spent. I'm not surprised to hear about the glare issue. I was wondering why there was one Roman shade on the window. So you need to handle the glare problem because the TV needs to be on that wall. Here's how to do it. Stick with the panels for decorative purposes. But add 3 Roman shades in a lightweight fabric for the windows themselves. Choose a solid color that matches either the trim or the ground color of the drapery panels (if they're a print). If the glare problem is a bad one, add a blackout lining. It's important that the fabric be lightweight so that they'll hang as flat as possible and, therefore, not interfere with each other. Send me a photo of the finished project! I still think this is the way to go. And it's once that's easily and inexpensively remedied. Go with the drapery panels.

I really do like it! The only issue we had with the tv being on the other wall, was the horrible glare that we got from the huge window; hence, it (the tv) was moved over the fireplace, where there was no glare. However, I agree--it DOES look better on the blank wall. Another thing regarding the fireplace--we've thought of having it covered with flagstone. What say you? The original brick is damaged in places, and really not that nice to look at! :) Lovely. I really do like it!

You did a great job. And it does look like a room any teenager would love to call home. If you like painting, you can always come over to my house. :) It was my pleasure. You did a great job.
