Dad is right... mine always said Fireplaces suck the heat right out of a house. Google it and he is right: > The reality is, most homeowners don't use their fireplace on a regular basis. ... Wood-burning fireplaces are quite inefficient as a heating source since most of the warm air is flowing up and out the chimney. And it's not just the warmth of the fire being pulled out of your home, so is the heat from other rooms.

Thank you for not using Gray. Seems like that is a choice most are making today. I agree that paint is fairly inexpensive to purchase, but I assure you. When a house is occupied it is labor intensive to paint because you tire of the color. Much easier to change rugs from room to room and throw some new curtains up...

I had a whole house remodeled before like your color but it was called country white anyways.... The carpenter's suggested a flat finish. AND I HAD KIDS!!!

Put a rubber band over it to secure and leave it for a while. Every few minutes go and rub the rag. It will loosen the paint naturally and without chemicals. You don't want to damage those marble doorknobs.

Beautiful place, but if you can't leave the fireplaces open for at least decorative purposes, then just remove the entire mantel and make the wall flat.

I use TSP (not the substitute) use very warm water, Wring the rag out so that it does not drip. Let it soak for a little while then wipe away the paint with a clean wet cloth..if any paint remains then do it again. Once usually does it though. I wear rubber gloves to keep my hands pretty. I used this to strip the paint from my front door and used hardware from used kitchen cabinets, that we put in our cottage kitchen. They were a mess but TSP cleaned them right up. I use this for anything that would normally need allot of work, but TSP turns it into easy work. If you decide to try it, you will want to keep it in your 'bag of tricks' eternally . Best of luck my dear! You are doing a FANTASTIC job, the house is beautiful !!!

I learned about Citristrip a few years ago and now that's the only paint stripping gel I use. It smells yummy like citrus not chemical fumes but I still ventilated. It cuts through paint like a champ. The longer it's left on the surface the more layers it eats through. Plop it on medium thick and leave it. Come back with gloves, a tarp and a pail to put the goop in, scoop up the goopy paint, and your done. It even gets fine crevices well.

I know this all already done and I’m just watching it now, but I see so many missed opportunities and wasted space - two foyers, pick one and make it work probably the side one make a bigger front porch on it. The master bedroom should have been the pink room and used tiny room to make a master bath and closet. What you have as master bedroom should have been family room open to the kitchen. Some walls should have been taken down to make the house much more livable. If you weren’t going to fix the fireplaces, take some out because they take up a lot of room in those bedrooms. Could have put in the mantles again but you would have gained so much space. I really think a designer should have been consulted.
