Thursday night I installed these in the back halls - upstairs and down. And it being a really old house, sometimes(!) you run into really old wiring... (Like I said, it was a busy day.)
We'd found these sconces a long time ago, but there's nothing like a deadline to force things to get done.
Sorry for that long aside. The point of the post was that the 1980's were a bad time for a lot of things.
Including this house.
If you look closely around the sconce, you can see the old wall color poking through.
Teal.
Yes.
Teal.
Not a subdued Victorian Teal.
A bright 1980s - TEAL!
A smack in the face like a handful of "Hai Karate"...
Now the image of Olivia Newton-John doing Jazzercize in leg warmers and a headband in this hallway is seared into my brain.
Aaaaaagh!
teal is a great color.
