The sunroom has the same tile floor as the front porch, two beautiful leaded glass window walls, a cathedral style glass door leading to the dining room, leaded glass French doors leading to the music room, a leaded glass door heading to the front of the house (now rusted shut!) an unusual lattice ceiling that is rumored to be original and the confessional window.  I hate the color and the horrible ceiling fan but do love the room.

There currently is no heat in the sunroom and since it is on the north side of the house and it is December, there isn’t much sun either.  When we moved this was the first room I set up.  It was small and manageable.  There wasn’t any construction happening in here.  (Eventually the mess from the music room spilled into the space but initially it was very nice.)   I enjoyed sitting here and having coffee in the morning and getting a feel for the neighborhood as people walked past the windows.  For example, there is a very elderly man who lives in the apartment across the street.  He leaves every morning just a bit before 10 am, wearing an overcoat and hat and carrying a cane and briefcase.  He returns about an hour later.  He does this every day without fail, regardless of the weather.  I am curious about where he goes and why he carries the briefcase.

The sunroom was a ton of fun to do.  There is a hook on the ceiling for hanging plants so I put my upside down Christmas tree up there.

A friend got me a sign several years ago that says “Tangled tinsel Christmas tree farm.” Ever since, we have had a lot of fun adding tinsel to our Christmas decorating.  This year the sunroom was transformed into the tangled tinsel Christmas tree farm.

There is the slight problem with this room that I haven’t solved yet.  I opened the windows when we moved in and have since discovered that they are in worst shape than I had suspected and I can’t get them closed again.  It wasn’t a problem during the summer but if we ever get a long cold stretch or snow I may have some trouble.
