A LITTLE RENOVATION

We took out our internal windows today ....
it's something we have been going to do forever ...
years ago, before we extended they were actual windows looking onto an old deck .... with the french doors you can see as the doorway.
We moved the doors to the new room but always kept the windows because I liked it that way, but it was time for a change and a bit more space ....

this is just before the glass went ....
there are a few shots of the old look on this post .....

 and this is after .....








 .... we have a bit of filling and painting to do now, but I think I like it better ....
(well it's a bit late now if I don't)
 at least I won't have to clean the glass anymore, 
little visiting fingers loved it !!!

It looks great. Nice and open. I'm a big fan of open plan living. What a great house you've got. Those floors!

Looks great! Are you going to paint the archway some funky colour?

Wow, it really opens the space up. It looks terrific!

I like this much better without the windows. Kind of like taking off the pantyhose after an evening out. airy!

that's looks so nice! our one bedroom has french doors between the rooms and I always love leaving them open- it makes the place feel so much larger!

Good move. It looks better for sure! We're about to take a part of a wall down between rooms. We're looking forward to the feeling of space.
