Apartment #9 - Rachel's Apartment - WALLHOLDERS OR BAY WINDOWS

Hello Everyone!!

Thank you for your sweet comments. And a big

welcome to my new followers!!

I hope you all are well.

I want to show you what I bought from eBay. The lady that

sells these is very sweet. I bought 9 of these wall holders

from her.

When I saw them - they looked like very nice bay

windows to me.  Linda calls these wall holders.

Right now she has only 4 of these wall-holders left.

I suggest that you contact her because she will give you

a great deal on them. Tell her Conny from its a mini

life sent you.

I do intend to buy more of them once I use these up.

Linda's eBay name is: 814bergie and she has good

prices!!! Be sure to contact her and ask her about those

wall holders!!

Just click on her address and see what she is selling:

 This is what the wall holders look like.
This one has a pretty dark pink roof.

I have a few

that are a different color.
It does not matter to

me that the roof colors are different. Some

will look faded.
These are so cool.

They are already put together.

They are plastic. You can paint these or

not. I chose to leave it this color.

Notice how the side windows will have to

be put in. You can use plastic or plexi-glass

for the windows.

This is a side view of the wall holder.

Here is the inside view of the wall holder.

Be sure to mark your wall for the nail hole.

I plan on using tacky wax to
hold the wall

holder onto the exterior walls.
I want to be

able to remove them in case I want to redo

the inside.
I will let you know how that works.

I painted the inside all white.
And then I

glued in some wood look floor paper.

This is the package that my scissors

came in.
I have held onto this

package for at least a year wanting

to use this plastic.

For the plastic windows you

really want to use a box-like plastic

for the side windows.

You see how narrow this

box is. It is perfect!!

I cut cardboard so I could cover

these with the same wallpaper

that is on the walls in the apartment.

At this time I also cut cardboard

for the top of the windows.

Once you cut the windows out of the

plastic scissor box or a similar plastic

box that you have,
then just glue them

in on the inside.
See how the plastic

scissor box sides fix the problem of

folded plastic.

Once the windows are glued in place

and you have covered the cardboard.

Then glue the wallpaper cardboard pieces

into place.
Do not worry if you mess

up some, it will not be seen, unless you

place the bay window where it will

be seen.
No need for any trims on the

top, but if you wanted to, you could

trim the bottom.
I opted to keep mine simple.

Here you see where I added a piece

of lace just above the window.
I do

plan on putting side windows once

I put the window where it belongs.

I have other plans for what is going

into this bay window, but my next

bay window will have  a window

seat.

I am looking forward to

making that one.

Next week I hope to have the window

in place and a few other things done.

Thank you for visiting me!

Take care and mini hugs

to you all!

Conny
