Blame....Rita! ~~photo heavy~~ #164170 March 6th, 2007 at 03:36 PM Joined: May 2006 Holden Beach, NC Tonya OP Member OP Tonya Member Joined: May 2006 Holden Beach, NC I was following her "Rearranging" topic and decided to do a little myself. I got all the boxes in the attic or closets, and now I can start moving things around. Here are some "before" pics From the kitchen doorway: From the front door: Please ignore the generator...It's going to storage this weekend. Along with all the other "c r a p" you see there. More in next post

Re: Blame....Rita! ~~photo heavy~~ #164179 March 6th, 2007 at 04:01 PM Joined: Sep 2005 Ontario penny in ontario Member penny in ontario Member Joined: Sep 2005 Ontario What about moving the couch down closer to the window on an angle and putting the tank on a angle behind it and the table thats in front of the window...moving it a bit closer to the door...and as for the end table next to the door,....could you store it for now...and that way you would have better access to your front window...and the tv could slide down a bit since you still want it on the wall??

Put the couch(dk blue) in front of the other big fish tank(purpleyblue) The tv under the map(dark purple) the shelves (black) next to the front door, The grens are the table and changing table where you said.You could cattey corner the tv a bit to see it better. I know my proportions are off in the pic. Oh the tan square is the table in front of the couch now.....
