Shop Box 2 - Nearly There!

Progress is slow due to the lovely weather we are having. I don't think I have spent so much time in the garden for a long time.
I have the wall paper on the walls and I have papered the ceiling.
The lights have been fitted and I have put the wires through holes in the roof and ......
..... glued the wire into a channel I cut out with a craft knife.
To do: Flag front of shop, cover roof and attached front to hinges.

Shop Box 2

Finally found time to work on the 2nd shop box last week. I constructed and undercoated it last year!

I started by painting the shop front. I really didn't know what colours or style I wanted so just took hold of the nearest pots of paint and painted. I must try this approach more often. Less time thinking so more got done and the result was quite good and has lead the way for the inside decor.

Moving inside, I used some coordinating blue tile paper for the floor...

And put tongue and groove panelling on the bottom half of the wall.
Next job, paper on the top half of the wall, cornice and lights.
