Window Seats

I decided to get rid of the big, deep seated couch in my living room, it took up too much space (and wasn't in great shape) and will be replacing it with a built-in window seat. This will open up the room, allow for extra storage underneath and be used much more by the kids to have a place to read.  While the seat will be built by a carpenter, store bought bookshelves at either end of the window will create a custom look.  I will post when the project's complete. Below are some great spaces I found on-line:
