Ok, this isn't close to being finished yet (nor is the room...obviously), but my DH has been working his butt off on this fireplace:

Thanks girls.

I can't wait until this room is finished!!! Let me tell you...we're going to have one hell of a party when it's done!

The room only has a tinted primer up so far. It's Benjamin Moore's Dorset Gold. It shouldn't look dramatically different once it's painted though.

The floor isn't even refinished yet. (You can see where it had to be repaired/filled in.) We're going to be using a dark Mahogany stain like the rest of the house.

The room looks great already, what a difference. Love the color of the walls and the hardwood floors. Your DH did an awesome job on the fireplace. Congrats.
