Mantels

We have talked about this, but I am thinking a mantel would add a lot of texture and depth to the living room, and be a nice focal point/divider of the aforementioned Two Spaces of the Parlor.

Mostly, it would be an opportunity to lean things on other things and put more art more places.

I think we'd definitely need a big ass mirror. Perhaps the one that came with the dressers?

(Insert obligatory photo of Jena Lyons' house somewhere in here.) (Also Keri Russel's.)

Completely agree! It will take a lot of work to get a working fireplace, but it would be easy enough I think to open one up just to have as a non-working FP. And I am jonesing for a nice carved stone mantle. So, yes yes yes. These turn up pretty often online and at BIG. Let's keep our measurements handy and keep an eye out.
