We decided it was time for an update of the entry and living room. The color is darker than it looks in the pictures and I love it against the white trim. I refinished the quilt hanger a dark greenish-brown and then distressed it. The quilt hanger screws were stripped so I couldn't get it to grab the quilt and I knew I had been able to change it for the last time. I looked at purchasing a new one (the cost was outrageous) and instead went to my local lumber store and looked for a dowel that was long enough. They had nothing so I just bought a broom handle and a new drill bit and we drilled new holes in the sides and cut the handle to size (after Bruce used it to attach to the paint roller - the ultimate in multi-tasking). 
This morning before Bruce left for early meetings he told me he was just sitting in the living room admiring our handy work and proposed the idea of painting 2 walls in our bedroom the same color and refinishing the furniture the same color as the quilt hanger. He didn't need to convince me, I love the idea. So - until the next installment.....
