Just a little time

I haven't had time to get started on my new big project so I've been satisfying the mini urge with little updates here and there. Today I hung Gaye's dollar store swap chandelier in the Willowcrest dining area. It's similar to what I had in mind for here anyway. When I can afford to start adding the battery powered lights I will replace this...or not. Maybe I will just hang a ceiling fixture in the living room area.
Rose's dress got a bit of a makeover today, too. The overskirt ends in a bustle with a small bow at the back. While I think the clothing from yesteryear is beautiful, I am so glad I can just pull on jeans and a tshirt and be good to go. ;)

It's a quiet Sunday afternoon after a lovely time of worship this morning. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend, too!

The day's progress

By early evening I finally felt up to putting in some more time on the saloon. This virus is not any fun at all. :( I think the only thing left to do structurally is the roof. I am very pleased with how this is turning out. The windows are all finished and the dormers are temporarily tacked into place. The sign has been hung.
Upstairs I used skinny sticks like beams to hide the tabs/slots. The extra wood makes the room more masculine...at least that's what I'm telling myself. I do like the beams, though. Certainly they are better than tabs showing, lol.
I couldn't resist a couple of sepia tinted shots. I might have to frame one or two for the billiard room walls.
Daisy is hanging her purse on the staff coat rack. It's a shelf with hooks below and a mirror above. That spot was crying out for something.
