Our 1978 interior was original, and we wanted to re-do the Barth for the coming year. We set our budget at $500.00, with two goals in mind:

1. Being only 24' long, we wanted to create the illusion of more space than we actually had available.

2. We were after a low key, rich-looking, unassuming, under-stated style of pure elegance

We hope you like & enjoy our results.........

There's no secret to drywall finishing. You just hire a professional!

After this week, I think that would also apply to stucco.

It came out well, but I would not pay myself by the hour. Frowner

Lee,

You should consider doing the inside entirely in mirrors. Perhaps different kinds of mirrors like in the carnival fun house. Then it can look infinitely big and it will match your exterior motif Thumbs Up

The really sad thing is that some of us would have to put on our glasses to view that mirror!
