So I have finished painting the bedroom! You probably saw the earlier post looking at this corner under where the roof cuts through the room because it is under a dormer. Now it has all been plastered up, sanded, primed and painted. I love the contrast of the grayish walls and the white ceiling, all of which have been painted. And then to see the old iron bed against the gray adds frosting to the cake! One thing left to do - the dark semi-circle within the white frame is actually brass, and needs to be removed and polished and then sprayed with a protective lacquer to keep it shiny for another 50 years.

Thumbs Up! The restoration of your bedroom looks great!
It looks beautiful. Great job Ken. What color were the walls before? They appeared darker, but maybe the fresh white ceiling and white iron bed really makes everything pop.

Hi Joan: The color is "Sage Green" which we have used in other parts of the house, incuding the new back room. It looks much darker in this photograph, and not as green.
Wow, looking sharp!! I am always so impressed with your attention to detail. You do it right, every time. I fall a little short of that sometimes in the interest of getting something out of the way, but I strive to be like you in that way! —Amy
I ove the whole look - the angles, the beautiful paint job and especially, the lines of the iron headboard.betsey
Thank you all for your wonderful comments! And Amy, sometimes life is too short to approach perfection. It's OK to just get it done sometimes. I do more of the "just get it done" as I get older... :-)
