• PLASTER!!!!

  So we finally got plaster on the walls!!!

   

  Windows and floor taped

   

   

  Eric on stilts taping the ceiling 

  

   

  I had to paint this pink glue over any painted wall so the plaster would stick

  

   

  The bags of plaster awaiting to cover my walls. (Happy smile)
  

   

  The wall with the fridge, oven, and cabinets

  

   

  New arches in the hallway 

  

  

  

   

  My plaster guys. These guys are AWESOME! They are the same company that build The Cheesecake Factory restaurant. (love that place!) So I knew these guys could handle my ridiculously insane look I was after.   I spent years studying every wall texture I saw. I fell in love with the old world style of hand trowled plaster. It leaves smooth walls with little marks. Then the faux paint job I will do pulls out those marks making the walls look old and worn. Sorta a faux Venetian Plaster look.

  

   

  The end of the day. PLASTERED WALLS…HOORAY!!!
