The Library


The library is finally done.

There really wasn't a lot to do in this room once we refinished the floor, but other things took precedence. ;-)

The woodwork has an interesting aged finish that we wanted to keep. The previous wall color wasn't bad, but it was a bit too orange at certain times of the day. So, last weekend I painted the walls. We picked a color that is in the painting on the bathroom door and coordinates with the furniture we already had. The new color looks a lot better with the mill-work and brings out the colors in the tile around the fireplace. While I was at it, the ceiling needed a little patching and a fresh coat of paint too.

Those with a sharp eye will notice that we have window treatments as well. They came and were installed this afternoon.
