Put a Roof on it!

Today I'm showing you a room that I don't think I've ever showed you.  And funny thing is it's one of my favorite spots in the house (and Ruby's).  It's our sun room.  It's been a room left in the dust in our home improvements.  BUT...today it's catching up -- they are puting a new roof on my favorite spot.

The roof got hit with some serious hail and it was leaking -- so it was time for an improvement.  And because this room faces south it gets piping hot in the summer -- to the point that no one will go in there -- it's scorching!  So we chose to have a new, actual roof (not glass panels) put on.    I know it will darken the room a little bit, but we are having two skylights put in.  At least we'll be able to use it all year around now. :)


Here's what it looked like this morning -- all cleaned out and ready for a new hat!



So lately I've been hunting the web for some sun room ideas and decorating tips.  Oh the possibilities of this room! Any thoughts on what I should do?

I'm thinking for sure a shelf  of some kinds (behind where I stood to take the picture) -- but what?  Short, tall, built-in??

Daybed or couch?

Fluffy rug or jut rug?

Fan/light or chandelier?

Coffee table or ottoman?

Roman Shades or Long Drapes?

Cushy chair or bistro set?

See what I mean??  The possibilities are ENDLESS!  I have a feeling this will be a long, fun process of decorating -- so I want to do it right! :)

Any ideas??
