This is a story of a dark, dirty little lanai (that's Florida speak for screened-in concrete slab room). He had a good foundation and a decent roof, but he just didn't fit in with the rest of the house. And he was so lonely since the owners had added a patio which was more pleasant to sit on during nice evenings and mornings. Poor little lanai. He needed a major change.
Luckily, the owners didn't want to give up on the little lanai. They made a plan to make him useful again! It would take some time, but the little lanai had learned to be patient. It had been years since the owners had really spent any time with him! Finally the process began...
He lost his light-stealing black interior...
And got lots of clean new windows!
He lost the dark green trim and white walls...
He lost the dirty concrete floor...
A little furniture...
A little decoration...
And he was whole again and the owners spent a ton of time in there! They even had guests stay on the captain's bed! The little lanai had transformed into the grand glass room, and he was happy.
And that's the story of our little lanai that could. Seriously, it might have been worth it just to get this picture of Lady. She's got her little paws and head on the stair. Too cute!
Any stories of rooms that could? Ones that finally realized their potential?
