It’s 2:38 am in Key West was sleeping and then awake of all things thinking of Prince Philip and all the coverage last week. My you and your lovely family really felt the inner pulse of my Key West.
Two things one late Philip Burtons,adoptive father of actor Richard Burton and Shakespearian World authority home or former 608 Angela was purchased by him as a broken down wooden Black Sea Captain gift to one of his children so as to be near him. The house is at the base of Solaris Hill 608!Angela Street. Philip was a dear friend a gentle giant whose credentials are too numerous however ,his home a any Welshman as he and Richard both born in Wales could feel at home all natural unpainted wood 1975 – 2021 upon whose porch literary lions would sit and sip Sherry . Then diaster someone looking for a trophy home purchased his 608 Angela for 1.875.000.00 and painted the natural brown home YELLOW . I am sure there is a reason I am writing at now 3:00 am do google The Azul Guest House on Truman it is of Queen Anne Architecture , my Mothers former home as her father was son of Walter Sayers Lightborn famed Cortez
Cigar Company . The LaPensione Guest house my great grand father’s home a grand two story wooden structure . The Lightborns originated from the Bahamas ,Royalist (those who fought in the American Revolution ).
Finally , diaster has struck once again The Cypress House all natural Cypress Wood recently vannished painted many coats of White.
In closing I have always wanted to turn Philips House into a Shakesperian Retreat and Conservatory. In NY and L.A. Philip Burton was the founder of American Musical Directors Academy that stands today and to his credit. It hurts.

In reply to Marsha. Hi Marsha , It’s really hard to tell without seeing the space. However, generally speaking, I wouldn’t apply crown with a brick veneer.

I am putting a white small brick veneer in my small dining room. Would a crown molding in oak look alright? My dining room is connected to my kitchen which has oak cabinets and trim. Ceilings are 8 feet high.

I think it’s great that you mentioned the importance of measuring your bathroom in order to ensure that you do not purchase more materials than you need. My wife and I would like to add some tile flooring to our bathroom that will resist water damages when our children bathe at night, but we’re worried that we may accidentally buy too many tiles for our narrow room. We’ll find someone that can help us determine exactly what we need.
