I hate when that happens. It does look really nice, but I totally understand it isn't what you wanted. I hope you're able to get it redone next time you're at the farm. I know it's frustrating to have to leave a project unfinished. The daffodils are so pretty. I love the sunny yellow color!

Even though this one didn't turn out the way you wanted, it still looks nice. I'm sure you will find a fix for it that will make it work. The headboard is nice so that would definitely work.

Since you mentioned it looked good in the garage, I'm thinking it was just the bedroom itself that was causing it to look busy. Sometimes it's difficult to envision how something will look in the actual space. I'm thinking if you sand the door and are very conservative (you can always add more) with the paint you probably will end up with something you love AND looks like you want. <br /><br />I was thinking about you yesterday and wondering how you were doing. Glad you had a week at the farm, and I'm kinda jealous your daffodils are almost finished blooming. We spent some time yesterday shoveling snow! lolDoreen@foxdenrdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09418636999038800443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871728063253895865.post-43754837821843469592015-03-24T08:04:35.606-05:002015-03-24T08:04:35.606-05:00Thanks Gail.

It looked ok out in the garage where I was working on it but when we hung it up, I thought it looked too busy. It frustrates me to have to leave a project hanging. I like to get them done.
