Salon de Guerre part IV

Today I started to add the Moloton (wall fabric underlay) and the 18th century reproduced fabric for the walls. Nessa commenced the restoration of the chandelier which was completed this afternoon.

Really happy with the 18th century reproduction fabric and how it looks with the gold and grey/white walls. Tomorrow I will erect the chandelier and complete the fabric on the 5x2 m wall.









Cheers

      Getting excited, removing glass tomorrow to replace with double glazing and then need to finish the wall fabric and paint the doors

    Outstanding, not just any old gaming room but a period gaming room, couldn't think of anything better

    I'm no interior decorator, especially of 18th Century rooms, but that looks great.

      I try, but my wife is the interior decorator and lover of fabric. Most of our wall on the three floors have a majority of fabric on the walls, only the salons have panels for the fabric

      Thank you, but as a customer of French Wargame Holidays you can enjoy it too! We also want you to bring your partner so she can relax and enjoy a 18th former Barons residence in Pays de Loire! Great food, great wine and a relaxing holiday!
