So glad you are on to another project- your attention to detail is a real inspiration to all of us. <br />Oh why didn't Brandon fall for Eleanor instead of<br />that flibbertigibbet Marianne?<br />Looking forward to seeing your room come together,<br />PhilipPhiliphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09761714890586496621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726627179512343604.post-14407086752882129842013-10-25T08:39:24.949-05:002013-10-25T08:39:24.949-05:00Dear John, the other night, when you published the...Dear John, the other night, when you published the first post on your new project, I lost myself to listen Farinelli and, in the end, I watched (again) the whole movie, and I did not write my comment.<br />But for sure, not even then I found it "rustic"!<br />It soon becomes clear that it will be extraordinarily nice and elegant, as you usually do.<br />I love the work you do with the decoration of the walls: for me it's almost science fiction (in fact, my Georgian house is still packed in the basement, waiting that can occur during maturity and experience sufficient to deal with dignity the project!).<br />An affectionate hug,<br />FloraFlorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06227561626918480289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726627179512343604.post-802744890849348662013-10-23T18:32:29.935-05:002013-10-23T18:32:29.935-05:00Only the Most Elegant, Refined, Spacious and Decor...Only the Most Elegant, Refined, Spacious and Decorous Log Cabin on the face of this Earth!

I think I will use them for the Montclaire House. Thanks.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Iris<br /><br />P.S.<br />Even if you built a "tar-paper shack", I know it would still be elegant!<br /><br />Iris Marchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00365219260043609509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726627179512343604.post-37745740469576745462013-10-23T10:14:14.059-05:002013-10-23T10:14:14.059-05:00I love the idea of the dome.

But I adore his voice, did I tell you that her is on my Pinterest wish list? Well no matter, he's waited for me this long, so I'm sure that he can wait some more. Meanwhile back at the cabin..... who ever dared to call it such? This is already elegant and beautiful. Are you planning to light it like the Thorne Rooms with the daylight streaming in from the top and sides!? That indeed would be Stunning!<br /> ( now back to chopping wood )<br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726627179512343604.post-36324999468626190712013-10-22T17:27:57.905-05:002013-10-22T17:27:57.905-05:00I never thought log cabin either.

I love dramatic lighting too.

It has 182 followers as of this morning. There might be an intervention if we can all manage to stop RL for a wknd. You might lose custody of MP. <br /><br />All in jest!

John, you say you've learned a lot of things from the construction of your MP, so you can use and apply them now. I think this room box is going to be gorgeous, because it looks fantastic so far.
