The Chinese, The Germans and Erik.....

.....what do they all have in common?

This weekend we said aurevoir to the pipe, and bonjour to a new wall (there's your hint!)!


Now you see it....







...now you don't!

Observant readers may have noticed that a) the wallpaper is gone, and there is a new colour on the wall, and b) that the studs supporting our wall are metal. Apparently this is the French way, and according to Erik we will never do it this way again. So there is your tip for the day: wood studs are infinitely easier to work with. Just another thing that the French have complicated for us!

Nice bit of wallification! I also observe valances removed, and privacy film on window-glass. And lights waiting for sconces! Plaster covering of conduits looks very smooth!

We have metal studding in Canada - it has to be used in basements. Just so you know ;-)
