It had floor to ceiling book cases and a small loft with a step down. It overlooked the great room like a balcony. I was the only one that would go there, because everyone else was afraid of the height. The builder had neglected to put in the right height divider. I loved it. I know you will create something wonderful.<br />KarenAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01487481759201796912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233955033219125564.post-89988037212493306282010-03-10T01:30:17.481-05:002010-03-10T01:30:17.481-05:00Great idea!

I have a friend who just had a loft built in her home with a beautiful library built in. Just add a electric fireplace and you could cuddle up next to it and read all the decorating book to your hearts content. Sounds wonderful to me!<br />Enjoy your day, Big hug, ElizabethElizabeth and Gary https://www.blogger.com/profile/15849231608931954395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233955033219125564.post-14718723301752317602010-03-09T09:45:43.064-05:002010-03-09T09:45:43.064-05:00Go for it!
