(This will be a narrative in pictures, mostly.)
When we moved in, we had this:
The green was a no-go, so we started to change things:
Then, upon closer examination, we saw that there was more to do than paint:
(this tile would fall out if anyone bumped into the mantle too hard)
(this cover is beautiful but was not living up to it's full potential)
So, we found a great contractor by recommendation,
and he started the transformation.
But he had to destroy...
before he could rebuild...
This is what we have now:
The end.

viridian - you likey? nice to see your suggestions come to life, huh? i can't wait to get all the furniture back in there, so i can see a finished space. what say you of the tile? what learnings can we glean from this?
snuggs - thaaanks! i guess this is just the way paint color is going to go with me step 1 - choose it and love it, step 2 - paint it on and hate it/ think i've made a terrible mistake and am colorblind, step 3 - see color with other things in the space and love it again
