dana, the white is certainly a different look from the gold. I think the brass chandeliers would have looked good with the gold, but as you said, at the time, you had no plan to have any other accessories to match it to. Can't you sand it and paint it again in a color that complements the chandys? lynn, my walls have alays been done in satin. I'm not sure why we changed to flat this time, if we did. It looks wonderful though and I will check to be sure that I am right about the finish. Only one coat of paint was needed to do the walls. Previously, everything was off-white. At night the Navajo has a yellow tint to it when the foyer light is on. I love the two colors together. Good luck with your choices.

Hi Kitchenkelly! Thanks, nice to see you too. Did you happen to notice when the ceiling thread disappeared from the gallery? That still has me scratching my head. It would be a LOT of hours of work to replace it, so I'm wondering if anyone even cared enough to make it worthwhile. Glad you enjoy the gallery threads -- thanks! Hi Jeannie01. Thanks! I tried to make each "piece of glass" look like the real thing and unless you get right up on them, they do look real. Once you're nose-to-nose with them you realize they're not, but they're so pretty you don't care -- at least I think so. No, the two windows I did were my own designs (though the center of the big one is a Tiffany design I adopted). However, there are some beautiful new patterns out that Michaels has -- I saw them a couple of weeks ago at my local store, so it's worth it for you to check them out. If you do your windows, it's quite a lot of work standing on your feet (if you're a perfectionist like I am). I did my bathroom window in place. But for the huge one where I would have had to be up on a ladder, no way. I had the hardware store cut me a piece of plexiglas to fit the window and did it on my living room rug. For my son's, I did the dragonfly and the flowers at my dining room table on special cling stuff you can get from the Window Butterflies lady online, then did the rest of the window right on the glass, incorporating and sealing those in. Please let me know if you have any more questions.

I do not. https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/kitchentable takes me to the kitchen table forum on the gardenweb domain. But https://www.houzz.com/discussions/kitchentable does not. It just does a search for "kitchentable" on the houzz domain. So editing the URL does not seem to work on the "index" page of a forum. However, it seems to work once you enter a discussion. (At least the few I've tried) For example, this discussion on the gardenweb domain: https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/5860282/pictures-do-not-enlarge-anymore-in-gardenweb Editing the URL (changing gardenweb to houzz) does bring me to same discussion: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/5860282/pictures-do-not-enlarge-anymore-in-gardenweb

Well now on my computer, some of the posts look embedded or something (maybe that's not the right word) but at least it has the dates on those. If you scroll down on this one, after Nell Jean posted, there's a bunch of replies all scrunched together. Then they're separated again. At least they're still there. Weird https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/1755603/best-spring-blooming-perennials-best-zinnias-for-butterflies  I'm just grateful all the old info hasn't been lost forever.
