Thanks! Congratulations to Rachael and her familial support group! No matter what happens and where you think/want things to go, change and redirection happen. It's not what happens to you, it's what you do when it happens that is the important thing. I have a feeling that Rachael will be just fine.

Ah,...the color. After much heated agreement during Coburn Secret Santa time last night, we all agreed that the brown is disgusting and the next color to try on the mantel is a pale Williamsburg blue. It should brighten and broaden the room plus pick up the delft tile and rug blues. Matt suggested taking off the paint and going with distressed natural wood. I think he may have something there! Pictures to come!

Merry Christmas week to all!
