Suggestions please.
Okay creative minds of rec.woodworking. Time to finish the bait
shack. It gives me something to do while I'm waiting for the sod to show up. I'm looking for suggestions as to what to put in the windows. I know that it will at least have 4 panes of glass, but what to put behind the glass to hide the block wall. Fishing lures? Boat ads? I already did a "curtain" on the mill window. I do have lots of old powerline insulators. Purples and greens. Old rusty tools? There will probably only be about 1-2" of space behind the glass once installed.

I would suggest a darkened shilloute (sp?) of an old fisher man with a
funky old hat and a pipe. |

Concrete paint it dark brown and strat some ivy growing. Give it a year
or two and it will look great. Add a low-volt spotlight shining an amber or pale blue light from above. |

Remember the old pop song "two silhouettes on the shade"...? That would qualify as that ever popular quiet, good taste, no? Patriarch |

That would qualify as that ever popular quiet, good taste, no? Speaking of good taste, I want to see one of these beauts in every one of your yards this year, Wreckers! (No, it's not my PD art, I just thought you should see it. I salute the artist, whoever that may be.) www.diversify.com/pics/pukeydogd.jpg ---------------------------------- VIRTUE...is its own punishment http://www.diversify.com Website Applications ================================================== |
