Turned out to be a short in the strip that you plug the lights into, but, yeah, electrical is such a pain. 😖Deborah Randolphhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10785563793295959835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492976373044265184.post-34738966314942785502020-07-21T16:19:19.488-07:002020-07-21T16:19:19.488-07:00Augh Deborah, you have my sympathy with the lighti...Augh Deborah, you have my sympathy with the lighting.... I hope you get it sorted soon. But on the upside, everything else is look fantastic. And I too love the picture over the fireplace. It could be that your home owners are living the 1930s life in the 2020s. Keeping it real. Regardless, if you love it, keep it.

It was so much fun, I didn't want to go to back to work! 😊 Thanks, Carrie!Deborah Randolphhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10785563793295959835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492976373044265184.post-67572175991146720032020-07-20T16:41:28.388-07:002020-07-20T16:41:28.388-07:00Thank you!

I am very excited for the desk. I have ordered cherry stripwood for it, so have to wait for that to arrive. I figure it's maybe time to graduate from bass stripwood for my furniture. Fingers crossed on the electrical.Deborah Randolphhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10785563793295959835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492976373044265184.post-89248472608225780862020-07-20T16:36:56.561-07:002020-07-20T16:36:56.561-07:00Thank you very much!

...Well done Deborah, but I knew you could do it. ;)<br />At first when I read that you had a week off I gasped and thought maybe you had been exposed. Stay-cations are more relaxing (to me) than travel. <br />I noticed the picture immediately, and I absolutely love it.

It sounds like so much fun! Your husband must feel so loved, and feel like he is married to the most creative and thoughtful partner in the world! 💗<br /><br />Leave it to you to come up with an ingenious method to create a curved window! It looks absolutely fabulous. And all the stripes line up!!! The view inside with the piano and staircase is divine, and the drapes really do add a level of sophistication that a home like this really needs. <br /><br />I love the painting and the way that it pulls the gold and wood tones from the fireplace and cabinet together. It really creates a cohesive and unifying effect in the room! A couple gold throw pillows for the sofas would seal the deal!<br /><br />I am so excited that you are getting to the upper floor, and the way you've come to joining the plywood together is great! I think your method for hiding the wires sounds great too. If you end up going with the mat board instead of the veneer, I think you should still be okay strength wise.<br /><br />The railing pieces look SO GOOD! And... The curved desk plans? Be still my heart!!! Good luck with the chandeliers and I hope next week's post if full of good news and progress!Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492976373044265184.post-76442382620143476012020-07-20T07:44:18.690-07:002020-07-20T07:44:18.690-07:00You are amazing.
