Camera Project Reveal

Ta-da!

The camera project is finally done.  At this point, I could never have believed it would have taken this long, but I do like the final product.  I think this is a great way to display some cameras you don't need or cannot use anymore.




And see the unfinished light switch?  I fixed that, too!



Here's the finished camera project with all 10 cameras.
 Here are the camera names:
  • 1949 Rolleiflex Automat X
  • 1968 Nikon FTN
  • 1976 Hasselblad 2000 FCM
  • 1946 Brownie Travel Six-20
  • 1976 Polaroid Pronto
  • 1957 Brownie Bullet
  • 1958 T1 Rolleiflex
  • 1984 Canon AE-1
  • 1971 Kodak Instamatic 404
  • 1965 Kodak Instamatic X-15
Ah, much better.  The living room is now completely done.  (Except furniture.  It has basically no furniture.)

Foyer Reveal

All the steps are done and I'm thrilled with the results.
Before:



I got a Thomasville light fixture and bulbs at Home Depot to update this monstrosity after painting the stripes.
  I went with a oil rubbed bronze finish so it would stand out against the stripes.  This said it is $218 online (but that is CRAZY!).  I paid $139 in the store without a coupon so I don't know if it was a weekly sale or something weird going on with the prices. 


 Do you like it?  I am in love!
 With the light on!  After:
 Lastly, the pictures that were hanging in the foyer had different frame finishes so I got some spray paint with a hammered bronze finish to make them a little special for the room.  I couldn't find the Oil Rubbed Bronze (ORB) paint that everyone raves about, but I'm so happy I chose this!

Again, this is what I had before:


And after!
