Ok...drum roll...the bookcase is finally in and finished.
Actually that could be a premature call, the bookcase is in but the "cornice man" is here now as I type, doing the last finishing touches.
After a few false starts with extreme hot weather, broken vehicles and difficult to coordinate timetables...the bookcase was installed last week.
Craig inspecting the progress
Trying out the ladder!
Now for the actual books...I might be crazy but I liked it better empty, kind of defeats the purpose though!
Just the cornices to go :)
Carl from Executive Ceilings has finished the cornice, just in time for Craig to paint over the long weekend.
(With my broken hand I have been banned from climbing on ladders, chairs, tables...anything really!)
Ok, I am adding a post script to update..well an overdue update :)
The cornices were done but I forgot to take a picture, until Gary reminded me that he needed one for his webpage. OOPS
(We have now got Gary drawing up plans for a TV cabinet and study/craft room furniture)
The finished product.
Gary added his logo..we love it!
