I'm probably the only one to say this, but I think I like the old furniture and decorating better, after the remodel but before you went all white. I really liked the exposed brick before it was painted, and the white mantel set it off so nicely. The neutral colors were so cozy. Of course, I live in Colorado, which gets a lot of sunlight, so we rarely need to brighten our homes. As long as the windows are open, we're doing pretty good.

We have a wrap around porch that shades the house so the white really opens up the space. It's fresh and clean.

I am in love with it all. And the view! Re. the trim, do you have any closer pics of it, both exterior and int? Or could you confirm if it is 1x4" side casing, and a 1x6" head casing; and a narrow bead mould below head or is that reveal that I think I see created from a 5/4" thick head casing?
