All my toys near at hand

I have some touching up to do, new curtains are being sewn, the bookshelves are completed and I've done all I'm going to for this room until next week.

Absolutely sensational. Standing ovation for you and your design/labor team. I'd call the wall color Charcoal Gray myownself and, oh boy, do you ever have a smashing collection of framed pictures, young man. And that mirror!

Looking at the window over your desk makes me kinda miss seeing the same white trim + window muntins currently hiding under the curtained window.
