Well, I’ve made absolutely no progress with my Home Projects Gone Awry. We’ve had a LOT of rain here, so I have yet to paint the porch floor. It still remains in it’s ugly sanded stage. The stairs and railings are awaiting a carpenter. One door still remains off on my newly painted and etched china cabinet and I’ve lost all interest in trying to get it to hang and close properly. I think I’ll wait until the carpenter comes and see if he can fix it. I’ve had no time to put the gray stripes on my too white floor cloth and the can of paint I bought to repaint my dining room floor remains unopened in my back hall. The good news is… a three day weekend is coming up and I’m hopeful about crossing some of these things off of my list.
Now to bring you up to date with work I actually get paid for. I helped my friend Denise Kilpatrick with a ceiling project she was working on for a client in southern NH. The medallion was not installed when I left, so I have no pictures of that ceiling yet. When Denise returns to do a little more work, she will take some pics and I will post.
Here’s a sneak preview of part of the ceiling medallion. Denise did all of the painting and glazing. I just added the gems.
The job we were working on lies behind those elaborate doors! Beyond the doors is a huge home theater and lobby. The ceilings we worked on are in there. This diamond wall was a last minute add-on I did. Like the wall in Milton, it also has the gems glued on where the points meet. The lighting was poor in this space, just some rope lighting shining on the wall from the ceiling molding. The sconces were not hooked up or in place yet. Maybe Denise will be able to get another picture of this too.
