This bowling alley of a vacant room was a real challenge especially with the fireplace off center.  And then there's my usual challenge -  staying within budget and making what I have left in inventory work.  Since the room lacked light, I used corner flood lights, which I think turned out really cool-looking and was a nice twist from table lamps. 

I'll have to shoot the before pictures after I destage.  This was a rush job and I didn't have time to shoot the house vacant.  But bowling alley is a pretty close description!

Joan ~ Excellent job on this! I absolutely love putting uplights in corners.  I even have four of them in various spots around my own home.  I've also used them in older homes that don't have under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen.  Putting them on the counter in the back corner behind a plate on a stand looks really nice and emulates the look of under-cabinet lighting.  Thanks for sharing!

Mary - Pittsburgh!  I was born and raised in Bethel Park and moved from there 7 years ago.  How's the staging market?  Not many heard of staging when I offered it back then, but I had family in real estate, so I had steady business.  Joan
