Picture This...

A library of old... late 1800's maybe. As you enter the double wood stained doors you see an antique stained glass piece built into the wall before making a turn to the left. As you enter the main area, a wood burning fireplace greet you with a great antique mantle. Solid wood floors that make the sound only thick hard wood floors make as you walk across them. Block wood paneling and barrister book cases and books .... shelves and shelves of books. At the far end of the room is a triune of windows, pushed out to gather in natural light with an antique leather top lawyers desk just beneath them....

..and this is the main light fixture for that room:

 
We are due to break ground on our house in January!!  The library is very important to me because I work from home and will be spending an enormous there!

Oh beautiful! Beatrix Potter had done a painting of a library - I had a copy I used to love. It was so warm and comforting.
