Professor Severus Snape's Office - click on the photo to visit it

"Happy is (s)he who, like Ulysses, has travelled far...."



Jan 30, 2011

I know, I shoud be...

...working on my greenhouse or the small retreat I bought for my birthday or planning on Spinner's End( which I actually started to collect books to - hope they won't be lost anywhere...)...
But instead of that I am working on - well, guess... ;D - the external walls of the Snape's office! I know, I know, it is becoming scary, not to mention boring, but I planned some "plants" before and finally added a few here and there. So, here we go - the only good thing is I didn't post this side of the walls for a long time.;)
This wall is finally finished for good.


And here I need to wait for the "soil" to dry so I could paint it.


And I have to warn you I have a few more ideas but they will have to wait a while.:)

A very special THANK YOU for Ascension for a beautiful award!! You made my day dear Friend!
As usual I pass this award on all and everyone of you!:)

Wiem, powinnam popracować nad szklarenką, albo zacząć pracę nad moim urodzinowym prezentem lub zaplanować budowę Spinner's End(można by rzec, że zaczęłam ją już od zbierania książek...), ale zamiast tego wciąż cos robię w gabinecie Severusa. Tym razem popracowałam nad dodatkami do scian zewnętrznych. "Roslinnosć" zaplanowałam tu już dawno temu i w końcu przyszła pora na to, by ją zasadzić. Pierwsza sciana jest już skończona, przy drugiej czekam jeszcze na wyschnięcie "ziemi", wtedy będę ją mogła pomalować. Coż, nie zaprzeczam, że mam jeszcze parę pomysłów, tylko, że teraz będą musiały trochę jeszcze poczekać.:)

Wow I love the wall. It looks old and damp. Your shading is perfect. Sometimes you just got to do what you want to do :)

Victoria ♥

The Old Maid said...

Yes, Victoria, but sometimes I have a feeling you all may have enough of the same project all the time ;) Thank you so much! Happy you like the wall:D

Świetnie to wygląda! Patrząc na mur aż trudno poznać że to jest miniatura a nie prawdziwy kawałek ściany!

Glenda said...

Nothing's ever really finished!! :)
The wall is great, Ewa - the aging and the damp look are perfect, and the plants suit it so well!!
I'm never bored with looking at your minis! :D

Ascension said...

Siempre encontramos algo mas para hacer en nuestras casitas o escenas, parece que nunca se terminan de todo.
A mi me encanta el envejecimiento de las paredes con esa especie de humedad y esas plantas que has añadido.
Es siempre un placer ver tu trabajo.
besitos ascension
