Summer 2005 We knew we had to replace the carpet so that was the last thing to go. First we painted the room and then I put up a border that shows a pack of wolves running through the snow. It's very pretty. 
We had a closet with mirrored wardrobe doors built. There is a window in the closet, but we had the guy cover it up with drywall board. We made it so we could remove the drywall if we needed too. From the street it looks like we have a white window shade drawn. The mirrors gave the illusion that the room is really bigger than it actually is.
Next we removed the wall heater. Usually the living room would be cold and the bedroom would be like a furnace. It was one of those dual sided jobbies, and it was useless. With the cost of propane it was a very smart move. We left it plummed for gas and the thermostat is still in place should someone want to install another wall heater. Another feature that gives the illusion of size is the vaulted ceiling with natural wood and beams made of pine. The extra height makes the room not feel so cramped.
