I love the 50s and 60s buildings and as others, it is sad to see them sitting empty. By gone years slipping away.

The photograph...Greetings Bleubeard and Elizabeth,<br /><br />The photographs of the hotel are sad since so many part of this country is having empty properties just languishing away. Yet at the same time I am attracted to these structures and cannot help but try to gain entrance and take pictures of the rooms.<br /><br />I too am no fan of this type of architecture, but it is also disappearing fast to new development.<br /><br />Warmest regards,<br />Miss Kitty and EgmontMiss Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01102405624074272450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-78727945728411627032011-07-18T10:01:58.898-05:002011-07-18T10:01:58.898-05:00You finally got shelves?

I also am planning on doing some experimenting with it. Good tip that we must be careful of not ripping the paper under the stenciled area. <br /><br />Keep cool!Healing Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13654497453272680145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-24216456802110788672011-07-18T07:57:20.529-05:002011-07-18T07:57:20.529-05:00Stay cool Elizabeth!

The photos make it look like the place is deserted... not a car or person in sight... sort of neglected so I am glad your meal was nice and I am chuffed to bits that you managed to find shelves!! Now you just have to get them up and you can start the mammoth unpacking task... it will be worth it though, finding all your stuff again!!<br />What is a magic eraser? It sounds like something I could do with!!voodoo vixenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05969587296959836879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-65787521152349240772011-07-18T07:47:26.487-05:002011-07-18T07:47:26.487-05:00Interesting building.
