Thank you! That really is beautiful. It feels so calm and soothing. Saybrook Sage was definitely on my short list. Painter was there this morning and we ended up going with a different combination of sage/greens. After seeing your photo, I hope I don't regret not going with Saybrook. Otherwise, I'm afraid the painter will be back yet again, or worse yet, I'll be breaking out the rollers to do it myself. Thanks for the link too. I can't wait to see what others have done.

It is a triple slider and a single window. These drapes were made for my previous house, they were on 2 seperate double hung windows. The ink wasnt even dry on the check when we found out we were moving:( I put two panels together in the middle. They are stationary. However, in the living room I have a travis rod (which I painted the wall color, with sheers behind those stationary drapes. I dont have a picture of that room with the sheers closed. Scroll up and look at the pic with the piano, you can see the rod I painted the wall color. The sheers are tucked behind the drapes. Those drapes were in my previous home too. They were on 2 windows. I had someone put two panels together so that they could be reseperated if I ever moved and wanted to take them with me.

What would be really lovely for a sconce is something with a capiz shell shade and maybe a few lusters, in a kind of art deco feeling to go with the beading on the mirror. I've seen them but can't find them just now. The capiz shell ones are simple and classic. Unlike the extravagencies below. :D Okay, I had to show you this one from Vintage Hardware, which is over the top, but pretty darned gorgeous. I can't decide if this one from Lamps Plus is ugly or wonderful. ...but this one is pretty classic

Clark, your dahlia is glorious and healthy as can be! My problem is acquiring clean stock, bagged dahlias many are virused and so also sometimes from specialty growers deepening on their quality control. Once virus is spotted it needs to be culled, sucking insects can easily spread disease from plant to plant, here we have large numbers of tarnished plant bugs that not only do their physical damage, but again also spread diseases.
