Two posts in one day ! This is the beautiful light I have bought for the shop from Ray Storey. I have bought single versions of the same light for the passageways . I am delighted with them and cant wait to get the electrics sorted out !
But that will have to wait a while as am busy making dolls for my upcoming fairs .
Here we have the cubby hole under the stairs. It will never be seen from this angle as the back wall of the shop pushes up against the stairs. You can only see a glimse of it through the open side door , the tradesmans entrance . I will probably just store a bit of junk under the stairs.
So finally I was able to get the back wall of the shop in place. I am delighted with it and very relieved that it still fitted after papering and painting ! You can see the side window frame with the aubergine paint. I will be repainting the inside of this frame the soft olive green I have chosen for the woodwork before I fit the "glass".
The soft distressed green is so easy on the eye and gives a lovely feel to the place.
I have almost finished the passageway behind the door, just some skirting board to put in place and then I can start to think about how best to do the flooring.

I'm guessing that you aged using the stain effect again? If you did, it looks so very authentic and real! ;o) I love this whole look, the doors are wonderful colours too!
BIG problems with the flagstones...'only' to do with the (poor!) design of the kit though. I will have to use a similar thing to paperclay to make my flagstones methinks. Will post on my blog why, so you will know! ;o)

I use Colron which is by Ronseal and one tin lasts years and comes in handy for all sorts of stuff including my witches broom handles so its worth buying !
