Avesmor, sorry I have not gotten back to you on your questions. The rounds things on my wall are old stove pipe vents. They were found in walls and on floors for stove pipe to go through to prevent things from getting too hot from the stove pipe. The bedskirt came with the set. I have not been disappointed with this bed set. I love the colors. Can't wait to see what you do with yours. Kim

KSWL, I am using FnB lime white on the interior trim (except for the ceiling). I will try that just for comparison, I hope it wont look like a near miss. Here is the Hampshire Grey test: We need to get new garage doors anyway, which will be a whole nother post someday. Kitchy, I don't think it read as a whole. But I would not do ALL exterior doors in HG. We have a oddly pourous house. We have a double front door and then a front to back hallway with a back door (that is the one I might paint HG, but it has very little wood so I'm not sure, to wit:) But if we did all exterior doors... there are double french doors all the way around the pool building, and another set to the greenhouse. There are double french doors from the DR to the back patio. Then there is a single french door to the side, one to the garage, one from the LR to an interior courtyard, from the LR to back patio, from the side to the mudroom, from a powder room that connects to the pool, and I think I still forgot some. Oh yes graage doors on our little "barn" and on our garage. The only ones in the running are the back door to the center entry hall, and barn and garage doors. You can't see the stonehouse from the main house, except maybe from the pool when the leaves are bare. Even then not really. And the only place you see it when you are walking the far side of the pond (below, the stonehouse is all the way to the left, where the ladder is)..

I am familiar with ash, but not ash hey or ash get. How aout a photo? Can’t guess at a stain color.

When you have a room with doors and windows like yours, it does make arranging furniture difficult. Most people are not using dressers anymore. Walk in closets with organizers help eliminate bigger furniture. Is your closet of a good size? You might be able to eliminate a dresser? I would put a small bench at the foot of the bed, not chairs. Chairs would be too large. Reduce the amount of furniture in the room and you will enjoy it more. Might be time to go through everything and make sure you get rid of those things you haven't used in a couple of years, donate them or pitch out! You might be amazed. Good luck. Before you do much else, go through that exercise, get the furniture in the best arrangement possible and then think about colors, walls, etc.
