Help finishing living room

I can't seem to get this room together and I am getting so frustrated because I just can't get it done. The fireplace wall needs help. Should I remove the upper trim? The stairway wall is barren. Currently, a bench is in the stairway wall space that I thought would be helpful for taking off shoes (near the front door). No one uses it though and it doesn't really fill the space well, so I'm planning to use it elsewhere. A long credenza might be a nice alternative? Too many chests in the room? I don't think I have found the right piece yet. Artwork is desperately needed. Maybe a small gallery wall? I have a Gleaners print that I'd like to use but don't know what to look for when choosing other pieces.


Would love the suggestions/ opinions of you wonderful houzzers. Thanks.ดูบอลฟรี hd
