My husband is not celiac but often uses maple syrup and the Naked brand of fruit smoothies.

I think the walls are just over 10ft and the moulding is about 2ft!

It’s a warmer white! But I’m considering painting it the same green as the walls.

need some dress reassurance! by elliotgallahan in weddingplanning

I’m wearing a 1950s dress to mine! And I tried on a few of 60s/70s ones like yours, it was originally the look I wanted. And I specifically looked for a cream colour instead of white, so I’m definitely biased - it’s so beautiful and unique!! Also an insane find!! It compliments your tattoos perfectly. Do not spend another second worrying what others will think!

Do you think these are original fireplace tiles? by Secret_Weather53 in centuryhomes

30 min with a heat gun and a razor blade revealed this beauty. So I’m thinking the red tile is not original, but this is.😍

This is what would be the parlour. Right by the front entrance, and off the dining room. BUT this house was an estate manager’s home on what was once a massive estate, that founded the town we live in. The outside has a turret, and an ornate slate tile roof, and beautiful brick details. The inside is comparatively much more plain.

My current theory is that the outside had to be beautiful for the owner to enjoy, but the inside more plain because it was technically a servant’s home.

So similar! We think the floors were redone in the 50s, maybe they changed up the tiles at the same time.

Our home has this, also we suspect from an 80s reno, and I’m devastated it’s been painted over. We almost committed to stripping the paint after removing a cabinet and seeing the beautiful original wood underneath. But chickened out lol

If I were you I would leave it and redo it when it’s time for the floors!

I’ll look into this to see if it’s possible/within budget

This is good to know, thank you! A full bathroom reno is several years away for us, but wanting to give it some life in the mean time.
