I keep looking at the noble proportions and details of the rooms and think how lovely they would look when "restored." That said, I realize how busy we all are in the 21st century, and how difficult it is to keep up with household maintenance!<br /><br />Now I'm off to putty the cracks in the wall!Square with Flairhttp://squarewithflair.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-148647148793397155.post-72485512239354677702010-12-05T18:23:59.003-05:002010-12-05T18:23:59.003-05:00Dear Edith, I've been to just such a house, th...Dear Edith, I've been to just such a house, though the removed pictures revealed what the walls had looked like before the rooms were inhabited by someone who smoked like a chimney! The result was definitely not even shabby chic!Mark D.

When many years ago they actually galvanised themselves to move house, the walls looked as if they had suffered a bad case of measles as every picture had been painted round and, when removed, left 'pock marks' everywhere!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-148647148793397155.post-60159410949457454882010-12-05T13:32:25.569-05:002010-12-05T13:32:25.569-05:00Thanks, Karena and H.H.
