StuccoHouse: Warped

http://stuccohouse.blogspot.com/2014/12/warped.html

Saturday, December 20, 2014. I've been slowly plugging away at restoring my upstairs double hung window sashes. The bottom sash has been moving along steadily it has been stripped, treated with borate, primed and partially painted. I was thinking that I needed to apply pressure to the rail to see if I could train the wood back into place. I treated the frame with borate and then tried to use a couple of bungee cords to pull the rail back into place. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Research House Hist...

StuccoHouse: Notes

http://stuccohouse.blogspot.com/2015/05/notes.html

Sunday, May 24, 2015. I found this little chalkboard in a junk shop. I love how the wood stain matches that of the doors in my house. I hung it at the bottom of my stairwell so I can make notes to myself that I will see each morning. The pictures above it are little Hummel prints from my Grandmother. I've hung family photos on the landing above this wall and will continue to work my way in both directions to fill the wall with pictures eventually. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

StuccoHouse: In The Ground

http://stuccohouse.blogspot.com/2015/05/in-ground.html

Monday, May 25, 2015. Gardening has been my focus for the past few weekends. For my birthday my parents bought me a rhododendron to replace an ornamental tree (I'm drawing a blank on the name as I type) that was planted on the side of my front door when I moved in. To be honest it was never my favorite and no tears were shed when it did not survive the winter. Tears were, however, just about shed digging up the damn roots of said tree. The dead plant's roots. Ugh. Where it ended up going. And finally, th...

Articles and Resources for Decorative Faux Painters and Artists since 2004. This Decorative Gilding book, as well as the other Annie Sloan books I later added to my collection were an enormous influence on my work.

Don't shoot yourself in the foot trying to keep a clean oven. 8216;s expert service guy, Gene, passed on a cautionary tale to me yesterday after he ordered a new, $90 oven floor for a customer. A well-meaning woman lined the bottom of her oven with aluminum foil, to catch all the food that bakes into the oven. Thanks for the tip!
