I was able to get the conservatory mostly finished today. I'm still deciding on how to attach it to the house and then finish the roof with acrylic which is on order. My back and neck are aching from all the different positions I had to put myself in trying to fit the wallpaper. It took most of the afternoon (with breaks), but I got it done and it turned out well . . . at least to my liking. For the floor I decided to use walnut flooring for the step from the breakfast room to the conservatory, and used a vinyl tile from Menard's for the conservatory flooring. It kind of looks like marble and with the rug, it's hardly noticeable.
And with that done . . . you just know I had to play!
The wicker furniture was made by a beautiful lady named Wendy (wenlaine) who I was privileged to meet on the Greenleaf forum years ago. She also made the cross stitched rug. Thank you Wendy!

Thank you Giac! It's wonderful to be able to bring all my wonderful miniatures out of storage. I'd almost forgotten how many beautiful pieces I have.

What a beautiful addition to the manor, and a lovely place to enjoy the sunshine! The wicker furnishings are wonderful and I love the little potted shrubs!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jodi! Yes, I can see Lady Pennethorne spending many happy hours here. The potted shrubs are a start. I'm so inspired by your glorious garden!
