Signs mounted to plinth

With the center plinth now fully painted, today was the day for the permanent mounting of the sign faces. We gingerly hoisted them into position using the forklift and then bolted them securely in place to the brackets we had built into the structure of the plinth. They looked great! Then Jay started on the blend coat of paint on the planter surrounding it. Tomorrow he’ll do one last coat of blend to ready the stonework for the final two glazes. By week’s end, this section of the sign will be complete. Stay tuned…

Golden castle

There was a spectacular sunset this evening, and when I looked up from my drawing, I saw the warm glow out the window. I wasted no time getting over to the Hazelnut Inn to grab a few pictures as the colour faded rapidly. The beautiful light made the Copper Crown even more magical than usual. It won’t be long until guests will be able to enjoy this enchanted suite.

Dining nook

The dining nook in the Copper Crown suite at the Hazelnut Inn isn’t huge, but then again, it is purposely built for only two. With the permanent light in place, it will be the perfect place to enjoy a meal or snack with your significant other. Once the wall painting is finished, the tiles are laid, the table and chairs are in place, along with all of the small details, this will be as magical as the rest of the place. Stay tuned…
