Finally! Ta-dah! Sent the workers home as the work inside is done (okay except for a couple possible trim pieces I'll probably put around the ceiling.) But... I love the results!! (*Click photos for full size.)
Hard to believe I started this Oct. 3. Hold-ups and my pauses prolonged the project, but I still have the outside egg carton bricks to finish yet. And then figure out the side wall with steps. I am still planning to add the other shop for a second-floor restuarant.
Here's the front of the seond floor shop painted - so far. (Ignore inside of bakery showing through.) Obviously, I still have to do the bricks and cover the top of the window. At least I got this done as it was a several-hours-long project.
Now for the first floor bakery:
I painted a plastic textured sheet a pinkish-copper for the ceiling.
I was determined to use the hanging crystal chandeleir I got at Michael's. I have another one to use upstairs. You can't tell but it has bat designs on the points that stick up. I added an LED bulb and glued the chandeleir to the medallion.
One of my hold-ups was of course I decided to add outside lights, later but at least before I wallpapered. ha! Something different, I ended up using some interesting-looking round light covers I took off some older light posts. I like the style instead of the usual square lighs.
