We have a similar problem - almost identical. Our house is very small so we also have our TV in the room, too.

I'm going to start by saying what others have - don't remove the fireplace. You have such a beautiful bay window that I really like the other person's suggestion about putting in a window seat.

You have beautiful woodwork, windows and a floor. Perhaps a less dramatic color would also help bring these out. Since you have a little money to spend (I presume as you mentioned the cost of taking the fireplace out), some updates to furniture, lighting and artwork/pretty mirror over the fireplace will really open up the room.

End tables on both sides of the fireplace with a smaller sofa in front of the fireplace would be lovely. Then you could put side chairs on the ends of the bay window (if you can't do the window seat).

Good luck!

How about using them on the walls next to a staircase, if you have one? I have a similar love for HUGE posters with minimal wall space.

We always shop at BBC Lighting (http://www.bbclighting.com/) in Milwaukee. They can order from many catalogs and their prices are below retail. However, I do not know how comprehensive their website is.

I wish I could suggest a bed and breakfast and am very curious at what people suggest in Wisconsin. Anyone have any recommendations for around Chicago?

You would be doing me a huge favor as I've been listening for years how much my husband would love an LCD TV. He has been pining for one and never seems to get anything for himself. He works two jobs so that I can stay home with our son and I wish we could afford something this lavish to give him a little happiness when he has time to relax. It is his birthday this month and the timing is perfect. Thank you!

It would look nice on the sun porch. But I agree, it would be more fun to make a pillow for quite a bit less than pay $79 for one.
