All the lights and floors are in; in fact the skirting boards (kick boards) are also in place now in the living area - there won't be any in the shop. Since lighting it I have decided I need to add another light to the stairs - they seem to disappear. They were too much work for me to be prepared to lose them. It will be a simple job; the back panel will come off, drill a hole and hang a light.
Hi Em, do you have a door upstairs between the rooms as I can't find one anywhere to fit the space?
ReplyDeleteNo, I had the same problem. Had I wallpapered the room I would have shimmed it up and put a normal size door in but the room is painted so it would show the patching in job. I left mine as an arch between rooms and am half sort of waiting on a bead curtain from The Venerable Bead..I am being particular about the colour so it may not happen - you could consider that?? Or make a pretend bi-fold door and have it open? What are you shutting off from what?
ReplyDeleteMy smaller room is a bedroom so it really needs a door. Might have to try making one myself.
ReplyDeleteAre your walls already finished? As I said you can fill in with a piece of wood to make it fit a normal DH door - the height is OK I think - it is just the width. It will paper over just fine. All the doors on this kit were not standard - have struggled with all of them. You could use a nice velvet curtain - people did.
ReplyDeleteYes they are already decorated, might try the curtain idea and see how it looks.
DeleteJust put up a rough drape with masking tape and see how you feel about it. I think a curtain on a brass pole and rings would look right.
