Let the electrification begin!


So, the Beacon Hill has been on a slight hiatus while the ceiling rosettes went missing. No point in starting the electrical work until they are in place, as two chandeliers must be installed in conjunction with them. Turned out they were hiding under a pile of lights. When I dug down, there they were.

Before they were glued in place, each had a hole drilled in the center to accommodate the wires, and they were painted to match the ceiling. This was done while the house was still on its head. It will be turned right side up while the tape wire is installed.
The dining room rosette is slightly smaller, a better scale in this room.

The living room rosette is a bit larger, as befitting the grandeur of the room in which most guests are entertained.
This is a very short entry, just enough to let you know I'm still working. The next post will have photos of the tape wire and lighting in progress.
