This is one corner of the entrance hall. Donna loves CROWNS, and we're looking through one.

When we learned she could stay for many years,we went wild and painted the whole place. We chose this muted blue over the grey, but before we could put it up, we had to strip off all of the old wallpaper underneath. Donna wisely left town, and came home two days later to this. Everyone HATED the purple square insets. I knew they would perfectly tie in the purple drapes, which no one knew were coming. Heh heh...

....I just added columns and built a scaffolding over the water and painted clouds on the wall. The arch above the tile is an architectural piece from Paris.
