Atelier (Week 1-2)... A mini renovation

It's been just over two weeks since I acquired my new space for the atelier, 587 Markham Street.  Some photos to share of the two weeks... 

just primed my first wall, a textured wallpaper that had a bit too much sparkle for my liking (not that there's anything wrong with sparkle... I'd just rather it be on clothing)

 my brother D freshening up the ceiling

 he painted the ceiling, walls x 2, and doors/trim all in one day... 
it was a long day, but we had a cooler full of beers to help us through the day... 

brought Lola (the mannequin) in to display a dress in the window in the meantime

 
the new hangout... public drinking at its finest!  it is private property, but does seem to be the spot lately for after work beers.

Lola's so pretty in the night!  
Walls painted here, still need to fix that striped floor (sorry Ma, I know you thought it was cute, but she's gotta go!)


a bit of evening business on the NEW FLOOR!  how sexy is that!  Thanks to my cousin Andrij and his company Painting Solutions...


More photos to share next time.  Custom shelving is being installed this week, furniture to be delivered, and me to move in soon.
