We Start in the Music Room

I can't believe it was almost one year ago that we started the remodeling of this house.  First order of business--we had to finish the music room before we moved out of the ranch house because the one item that we hired movers for was the baby grand piano.  That room had to be finished because we aren't moving that thing ourselves.

Here is the room before, when the former owners lived there--very out of Africa with the grass cloth wall paper and brass bamboo light switch covers.


My daughters and I spent one week of 8 hour days scraping off the grass:


We spent another week painting, the last day I think we worked until midnight, as the piano arrived the next day.  Here is the finished room, all Cinderella blue and white:


Turn the other way, and you look into the living room, which is a rather wonderful room, we'll see it next time.
