ShowHouse home & garden I have seen those at flea markets. It is an old glove mold where several gloves could be made at once. It's now "art"!

Leeanne H. I love this look! My 1890 home was restored inside, removing ALL the mouldings and having the plaster removed, which was in very bad shape. that enabled us to insulate the walls, which were not at all! The walls are new wallboard and ALL the moulding was stripped by my nephew who is a wood restorer, and then all put back in place. I've decided that we will keep them natural, and the walls will all be painted the white dove.. I love that white, it's soft, and creamy.

with a two story foyer where the stairs are illuminated with wall sconces, do you need a pendant mounted fixture in ceiling which would add very little light but may be needed for aesthetics or decorative reasons? »

Emily Booth May I ask what wall color you used here? It's beautiful.

Leeanne H. I remember reading that it's BM White Dove. it's dark up in the stairwell and looks different

Great idea for light in windows plus privacy. Any other clever solutions for good lighting with modesty? »

What is the wall color? Is it indeed Mosaic Glass, or is it something else? Are the upstairs and downstairs greens different? »
· · Comment · 19 months ago
Anne DeCocco I think Mosaic Glass is a great choice!

Natalie thanks! That does look pretty close, doesn't it? Also, Glazed Green #499 is pretty close.

Small details can infuse a traditional setting with modernity and personality. Details like these hands sophisticatedly support the notion that design should be fun. Do you have two styles that you'd like to see merged? Let me know below! Next: Browse more eclectic home designs

3. Entryways and foyers can suffer from being forgotten and ignored — especially when we use side and back doors more often than our front entrances. Make your foyer into a little gallery of curiosities. While many of us may not use our front doors as much these days, we still walk through them to get upstairs, so make this space an experience rather than an afterthought.
Finally, don't be afraid to mix old and new — it can work beautifully. This staircase was probably once all dark wood, but painting the balustrades white and adding the white console table and sculptures really gave this Victorian hall a contemporary twist.
