Tom and the V

I am always asking Tom to do stuff for me around the house. He always delivers and this last project about killed ME!  It was a nail biter.  Our entry way has this humongous curved wall that was empty for about four years.  I have slowly hung stuff on it and it is finally coming together.  I found this gorgeous wall sticker online at Dali Decals and thought it would be the perfect thing for our entry way.  Never mind that you have to figure out a way to put the dang thing on the wall.  I just wanted it.  The decal is 36" square.  It came in two pieces.  Putting it on the wall was a bit tricky.  You have to peel the wax paper off, position it,  press it on the wall and then peel off the backing.  It is very tricky, especially when you are 10 feet in the air.  You have to make sure it is level.  Tom never complained, I sure did though.  It was making me a wreck by the end of the whole process.  Just watching him dangle on that way high ladder was enough to give me a coronary.  My heart was pounding, I had to go in the other room.  I am so unstable sometimes.   It looks nice and the wall is beginning to look like there is a plan.



I just realized I don't have the big reveal picture.  I will post that once I get one more thing hung up.....

Good thing I wasn't around when Dad was putting that up. I'd have had a fit.

SCARY! It looked really pretty. I still want to see the reveal photo! Even though I've seen it in person and love it. Tom is very handy. Nice work! I would have been having a coronary too.
