Is now open for business! Our first guest arrives from the UK on Friday.

The wallpapering and painting is all done.

The sky has been painted, including secret nighttime surprise ;) This is not easy to do with 12' ceilings.

I discovered a cool way to liven the sky up with aircraft pics. Print them on "Clear Sticker Project Paper", from Avery (4383). I do, however seem to be having stickiness troubles. I may need to go over them with wallpaper paste to get them to stay up. Our problems appear to be twofold; Arizona daytime heat, and textured walls.

Here's how it all looks so far.

I'll be having a 1916 corner, 1917 corner, 1918 corner and a Home Defence corner.

Starting with the 1916 corner, I have a Somme battle map with some pics on the wall. And some of the aircraft types in the sky.



Models to follow!
