If you look closely at the before pictures you'll notice the carpet goes up the wall some as a carpet baseboard under the wood baseboard. So when we decided to replace the carpet we realized we either have to recreate that look with the new carpet or get rid of the dated wood paneling.
The "before" pictures were taken on Friday and the "afters" were on Monday morning.

We still need a few more layers of compound and then prime and painting. Not sure if we'll put a chair rail back up or not.
Phase 2 will be replacing the carpet when we get back from vacation.

Removing the paneling sure does brighten up that room a lot. I like the bow window and the brick wall - nice features!
I agree-- its amazing how lighter it makes that room seem. That is such a wonderful, huge room.
Good Luck with the project!! :-)
I love those windows! That will look great when it's done. Brooke is getting so big- love all that hair. I hope Paige is enjoying being a big sis :)
