1. Smooth wall on the two walls, with a honey oak wainscot?

I would not run the beadboard on both ceiling and walls, but that's just me.

If it were mine I think I would do a nice smoothwall job to those two existing walls, and then run a honey oak wainscoting about 36" high along those walls. That would help tie in the large wall, without breaking the bank.

Is the entry door natural oak?

EDIT: Are the non-paneled walls also 15' high? If so, I would make the wainscot about 60" +/-

EDIT: Is there a crown moulding installed now? How large? Painted, or stained?

The wainscoting is stained to match the existing stained wood work. Wash. state Desk Jet Jan 2015 #5

You should be able to remove those glue globs. Wash. state Desk Jet Jan 2015 #7
