This is the front of the shop.
You can see I have used the
card kit to make a window trim,
I love the effect it gives. You
can also see I have had to
remove the shop doors! They
were such a tight fit they would
not open with the parquet floor
I am planning to lay, so they are
removed and waiting to be
sanded down.
This is the door into
the house. I am
most likely going to
have shelves across
these windows as
the shop counter
will go across this
corner allowing
easy access to the
house and stopping
any customers from
wandering in there
accidentally!
I used some lovely
maple parquet floor
tiles for the flooring. I have decided to
paint and wax them . Very time
consuming but worth it for the effect!
I used just one coat of paint so you can
still see the wood, its more of a colour
wash, in the cream of the shelves and
the green of the woodwork. Then a coat of clear wax and fingers crossed my shop floor will look
beautiful.
