I would pull up that carpet and live with the knotty pine for awhile. THEN I would decide. I'll say this...good knotty pine paneling is easy to care for. Once painted, there's no going back...

If this were that awful pressed board faux paneling I'd say paint it. But that? THAT I would leave.

You must find a copies of the Barbapapa books. her house looks VERY like a Barbapapa house! (Last I checked, they were out of print...but one can find them in used bookstores.)

Don't do this to a true antique...shining the brass removes coveted "patina". Or--so says The Antiques Roadshow.

(Which is silly, because the brasses would have been gleaming back in the day...but there you have it.)

I got our awesome dining table on ebay for $100--and shipping (from CA!) was $25 on Greyhound. It's beautiful...though I don't know who designed or made it. It had always been associated with a set of Gazelle chairs...my theory is that someone had it made by a local CA craftsman to go with their chairs.
