I too own this bedroom set including dressing table and full size bed. Pieces listed on eBay sell for around $1800 each but I haven’t found much else about them. I only know I love them and acquired the entire set fo $750 at an estate sale. Would love to know more.

Beth, I have been so delighted and educated with all these posts. I love the evolution of your wonderfully charming home! You are an amazing woman! I share several of the decorating dilemmas you've mentioned. My "living room" is about 2' more narrow and 2' shorter than your area. I'm learning a lot from your post. The repurposed gun cabinet idea is absolute genius. Please share a photo when you've installed the shelves and contents. Regarding the non-glare glass for your larger artwork. The price of non-glare glass has become simply ridiculous. I have an entire hallway lined with (Gasp!) a family gallery wall. It includes photos from more than 100 years ago to this year's school pics of the great-nephew. Color, colorized, sepia toned, black and white, all mixed together and mostly in their original mismatched frames. That just about breaks all the rules, but I love my wall. Several of the older photos - Mom's 1954 graduation photo; MIL's 1952 wedding photo, etc. - had plain glass. I can't tolerate the glare either. I made a note in my iPod of all the frame sizes that needed replacement non-glare glass. Every time I'm at a thrift shop or yard sale I check out the "frames" area. You can often find large pictures that may be in horrid frames, but they will have non-glare glass! I buy the frame, take out the glass, and toss the rest. I found one very large print of ballet slippers framed with non-glare that was big enough to cut down into several pieces. It made one 8x10 and three 5x7 pieces of non-glare glass for my wall, all for $1. With their permission, I took the glass out at the shop, tossed the faded print, and re-donated the empty frame back to them.

Lilyfinch, I think Amazindirt is probably right. Hummingbird Farm says that the color for Warsaw Nike is purple in shade and burgundy in sun. The only difference is that it's a large-flower clematis: http://hummingbirdfarm.net/warsaw_nike.htm Etoile de Violette is also similar but smaller than Warsaw Nike. I was reluctant to post this pic because it shows how little I knew to provide support (I'm still new in growing clematis) and it's all messy, poor clems trying to figure out where to go. It's still good to compare the size of EdV to Jackmanii, the larger clematis on this photo, and it seems to be the size of your mystery clem. I circled Etoile de Violette, only a couple can be seen here. It's rather slow in taking off and hope this year will be better. On the closeup, a striped bar can also be seen going through the center. Can't say if it's redish, however...

A word of warning to any Excel-challenged people reading this, Stop, Do no go further. Proceed at your own risk, or you will hate me for this... ===========Stop Here========= The important thing for me is that it's mobile, takes dictation and adds photos, on the fly. It syncs to the cloud so I can use it on my PC or mobile device! Separate pages for each violet serves the main purpose of tracking periodic dated updates as multiple rows running vertically down the page. That's easier than tracking dated info across the page. But that's more difficult for me to say that 3 times fast. For people who know their way around spreadsheets and databases, the main detail info from the top part of each page can be easily be transposed from columns to rows on a separate page. So separate rows for each violet will run across the page, all done Automatically(!). Some might refer to that as a reporting function. Others might call that kind of automation as being plain lazy. For those that didn't heed my warning to stop, you'll call that intensely confusing. Transposing the detail sheet info a summary sheet serves to display and print the violet collection in the standard muti-line spreadsheet format you describe. Sorry if I lost even the spreadsheet users still here, that would be everyone. Only few advanced Excel people would understand the concept of transposing columns or using pivot tables to summarize data. Sorry sorry sorry it that was confusing. BUT My point is that getting this information into that summary format would happen Automatically when using it. Excel is a great program for setting it up to do that. This was a quick little project that could evolve into something else. It's actually ideal to use this spreadsheet as the basis for a portable database app for phones and tablets. Would be another quick little project for me, and be a major time-saver for me in the long run. So sorry if it seems like I've rambled! I do feel silly now for that. I'll probably be back tomorrow to simplify it all and just click delete.
