Hi, can anyone make suggestions...I have this fireplace in the centre of my living room. I have 2 bay windows, one at each end of the living room. On either side of the fireplace I have doors - one leading to sunroom (left of pic) and one leading to den (right of pic).

Where can I put the television and furniture?? Help!

thanks

Here is a drawing as how I think your living room is laid out.  Put 2 loveseats facing each other so you can either look at the fireplace or at the tv - depending which one is on.  You could also do 2 swivel chairs instead of one love seat so you can turn abit towards what you are watching.  If there is enough room, put another couple of chairs and small round table in one of the bay windows and in the other one you could put a console table or small buffet with some lamps or put a sofa table behind one of the loveseats.

For some reason, I can not attach a picture - it says system fail, etc.  Will try later.

Okay, now it is uploading.

it's the only pic i have as we don't move into this house until late summer. Across the fireplace there is a wall, where currently sits a couch. was trying to avoid a tv in the bay window because of the glare from the light...

What is across from the fireplace?  Might have to be in a bay window or corner beside a bay window.  Can you post other pictures of the rooms?  Larger pictures would be helpful.
