Painting whilst I eat Easter eggs….

An update on a restoration. It is really important that I re use and repair as much of the original woodwork that I can on this 1800’s house. Where I have had to make new components I have used the originals as templates so they are an exact match. Nothing is glued in yet, I’m still building. My talented God father, Ron Barker has handmade the mouldings for this house for me as lots were missing, Thanks Ron. Xx

I wanted to show I don’t always do period designs.. I have just installed an aquarim fitted into a living room wall, see the compass for scale. I have turned the lights off in the room so you scan see it better…..

Lights on…

I only get time for my own projects in the evening. I have been inspired by a room known as the ‘spite house’ a house specifically made to annoy your neighbours…. History, what fun!! Anyway, I still have the lighting to do and to clutter it up a bit.

Sneak a peak at an upcoming commission of mine. Over 100 years old, I know she needs work, but I love this house. Haunted no?

Lights on!

Roof repaired and leadwork done, chimneys are removable to allow roof to open, so my lead work a little different there, some touch up paint work to do and lighting to switch on.

Still a roof to fix and some work to do on the front garden, but finally you can see this large project coming together.
