Indirect lighting
This week has been VERY CRAZY. The things that have been worked on are not all obvious. The pillars (thanks to Albert) have been smoothed and readied for painting. Most of the walls have been finished and all the crown molding painted. Thank you Albert and Michelle!! On Saturday Bill and Albert put up the crown molding. If you look closely you will see that the CM does not quite meet the ceiling. We dropped it 2" and have bought rope lighting in bright white LED which will be dropped in the space behind the CM. This will give us a nice indirect lighting effect. Bill has always favored indirect lighting and is excited to finally use it in our room makeover.
Here you will also notice another "quirky" of "this OLD house". Nothing is level or square. Putting up the CM we realized just how uneven the ceilings and floors are. The CM here is actually straight...it's the ceiling that is all over the place.
You will not see pics of any other rooms in our house for a long time. Can I just tell you I can't stand trying to live in the middle of the mess of construction!! It finds it's way into all corners of the house. But I can't wait to get my room done and I'm sure I will consider all of this well worth it.

That looks really neat! I can't wait to see the effect of the hidden lighting. And that is totally funky with the ceiling. Love the painted wall, by the way!
Totally mag! Kudos to Albert and Michelle! Can't wait to see it nest month!
Looks like it will be a great retreat when it's all finished!! Good luck!!
This is sounding like an amazing redue. I am sure you will love it when it is finished. I can't wait to see the end result.
