The Hole in the Wall

What is it, huh? What is it, huh? What is it, huh? What is it, huh?

Oh and I like your walls. ;^D

Deb, just pulling your leg. But you did end up with Mot’s bowl. Cool!

For a bit I thought it was the one that ended up in the trash. Now it looks like the one from the CSS bowl turning episode.
Lucky and deserving, that would be you, Ms. Executive Director of the Inspections (and so much more) at Lumberjocks.

I like ya green room Debbie :-)
Why not just leave the legs off? Maybe make a matching sofa table at some point to fit there?

Great project Miss Debbie. I love it. The green paint works really well. Maybe underneath the TV, a small round wooden doorway for hobbitses.

Douglas, yes, that’s the one!! It is SO much more beautiful than in the pictures.

Miles: I’ve thought about the “no legs” and leave the big hole hanging in the middle…. it might be better.. I’ll have to try it both ways and really think about it.

Dusty: ah yes a doorway. I thought about painting a fireplace in the space but a hidden doorway.. that’s a great idea! ha.
Actually, as we were sitting there this evening, the washing machine on the other side of the wall started spinning and squeaking and it sounded exactly like a sound effect from an alien movie.. Freaky…

The green love it; love it love it.

so far everything is staying “as is” although I think the legs might come down if I can find another great purpose for them.

And now I’m painting the rest of the room before our propane stove arrives on Tuesday. Yippee. I feel warmer already. Or maybe that’s because of the painting…

So.. here is the wall as of Monday.

Then I painted the wall brown.

but we hated the colour—cat poop.

And so today I paint again.

I have to say that although I like the ‘leather look” it’s a lot more work than just using the roller. I would have been done by now!! Is it worth it? Well, I’m not looking at cat poop any longer and the dark brown isn’t as dark this way as if I had painted it completely dark… so..
well….. I’ll have to think about that after I finish. Right now: 1 wall down (the short wall) and 2 walls to go.. doh.

the walls are gorgeous. The cat-poop brown is no longer looking like cat poop as it’s affected by the top coat of dark brown schmushed on with a plastic bag.

all that is left is the wall that old upright piano sits against—can’t do that one on my own no matter how much umph I put into it. The piano just won’t budge.

This is a lot of fun, Debbie.

my arms don’t think so! lol

That’s a neat looking hole in the wall. You did a great job with the barn boards.

That’s a great way to hide an ugly TV. Also a great paint job.

I used to help moving pianos, to bad you live so far.
