Since I chose a little bit of a more complicated silhouette this time, I printed it out onto wax paper and then pressed that (still wet) onto the fabric, rather than attempting to trace it and ruining all my hard(ish) work that I did making the cover..
So right now we’re working on installing the beadboard ceiling.Here’s where we’re at.. Looks simple enough, right?
Chris changed up the lighting so that we have two smaller light fixtures instead of just the one.I’m painting the beadboard, he’s putting it up..Here’s what it looked like just a few weeks ago!.
When we started this project, there was plaster on the ceiling and then some tile stuff on top of that.Chris decided that just sticking the beadboard on top looked too wonky so every last little bit of everything came down.. Of course he had to go and do it the “right way” (someone’s gotta!)
so he put up some plastic and some two by fours for strapping.. Then he put up some foam insulation and finally, the beadboard on top of all that.. And now we’re in business!.
We picked up these neat ripply glass pendants and some Edison bulbs to go in them.. We’ve been busy the last few weeks with Christmas stuff so progress has been slow, but like a brilliant girl I know (me!)It’s a few months later now and I ventured back in.
I thought I’d give you a little follow up..So, this was my second time ever at this particular store and once again, I had problems holding on to all the awesome things I found for dirt cheap.
That’s definitely helping me to be a little less freaked out!Cheap treasures!.
