I posted these on the welcome thread, as well as quite a few others. But, here are a few from the parlor.

On the last fireplace shot, did you put back the baseboards and door moulding later?

Yes we did! I'll have to get a more recent picture. When we removed the paneling, we found the original porch doorway and just opened it up at bit wider.

I absolutely love the wallpaper you put in the parlor! I can't believe how much of a difference it made. Beautiful!

And I am jealous... Your fireplace is intact and usable! ;-)

After several years of planning, we finally got our house painted. Not sure if my wife or our neighbors were happier to have it cleaned up and looking respectable. We got help from http://historichousecolors.com/ with the colors and I would completely recommend Robert's help if your a bit indecisive.

Mike, that makeover is stunning. The colors go so well together. I could not have picked it myself. Isn't it nice to have people out there who can help? Congrats.
