For several weeks, seems like a lifetime, I have been renovating my flat in Waikiki. It is coming along nicely, and I thought I would share the progress, as we come into the home stretch...
The first snap is of the living room area I have set up. I am quite pleased with how it is looking, even if I say so meself.
Bear in mind that the curtains were a first try, and I have found others I like better and they will be in the new pictures.
In a corner of the large living area, I have set up a computer area. The folding screen behind the table is to block a view into my flat by folks walking by the windows on landing.
The table is rather long, topped with a nice marble top and base is painted chinese red. Works well.
I rather think I have to finish off the windows with curtains and have bought enough to match the ones I am placing on other windows.
I took time to sit in one of the comfy chairs, to show off the bronze bust I have on the column.
Here I am approving of the placement of the massive telly. Not that I watch much.
View of kitchen area from the front door. The table and chairs were a steal and work well with the space of the kitchen. Not crowded at all. There is even a leaf to the table....
For my smart candle lit suppers....
Another view of the kitchen. Check out the tile floor and the massive icebox...
The bed is a massive mahogany one, with a nice design in the head board. It is for a full mattress. At present I am using a twin. Well, I sleep alone.....
The bed was another steal. I had a workman place a thick board on the side rails, so as to not have to buy a box spring....
Another view of the bedroom. Artwork hung and a nice chest of drawers.
The plan was to hang drapes on opening of the closet. The set came with red center. Upon reflection, I thought it was too gay....
Bought another set of matching drapes. Much better.
Will end this presentation with a snap of one old geezer standing next to a bronze bust of another ancient...
