An Odd Built-In Makeover

We have this odd little built-in on one of the walls of our dining room. On the other side of it is the front door. I think that at one time it may have been an open display space. I am not sure why it was closed up, this is a rental house after all.This was the first time I decorated this area after we moved in. I put a $1 spot roll of wrapping paper on the back of the walls.

We have a Tiny-Little dining room. Sort of a walk through area to the kitchen. An odd end space to the living room. It's just big enough for a table and four chairs. I have plans for a few little projects to add color and pattern. Something I crave in my living spaces. I love to look at all white rooms, and homes decorated in neutrals. It's just that, I need color. Since this is a rental I will...
