You will have care free looking finishes applied to your Library. I CAN NOT EXPLAIN the way photos coming out so dark and sometimes coming out white. Many times I thought it is lighting coming from outside that effects the pictures like this.

We decided ( when Ann was in the Library ) that she will take the picture against the window, because it would look too light. There is a fair amount of white-wash ( about 75%) on the columns, as I would like to bring the amount of white and exposed ridges of wood to some balance. The reason for this is the most convenient balance; you can go more white or less white later with wax. Before I went to NY, I covered some of the columns with white-wash, for they lacked enough white. Now I would like to take very carefully some of it down to balance white and wood and ridges of wood. Please trust me this is not fair photo. I can go to the Library and take another photo, that will show 90% white. This is why, I would like to go to the photo shop tomorrow and buy a filt
