Twelve Dancing Princesses Dining Room -- DONE!


The Twelve Dancing Princesses walking in trance-like procession across all four walls of my dining room...are completed!!!  And they have been for a few months now.  But I kept hoping to get better pictures of them than the ones below...professional pictures, though I don't know how to take the best shots.  But I figured if I wait that long, everyone might have forgotten about the project before I do my "grand unveiling." 

So instead, here it is!!  Bada daaa dummmmm!!!!






I am still having an internal argument about whether or not to add a gothic arch acorn border stencil I found online below the chair line in gold and burgundy.  I vacillate almost daily over whether I should or not.  But otherwise, the room is done!

Perhaps showing the room best of all, here's a 7 minute video tour of the room from all angles and with all the princesses featured.  Video best seen expanded to full page.


And finally, once again best seen viewed in large size, here are all twelve of the princesses!

  2. Thanks for all the encouragement, all! I'm so relieved to have this project in a state of completion! I do think I'm going to add the stencil to right below the chair line, but that can be done pretty quickly. :)

  4. Oh my, it's so lovely! I would love to do a project like this, but I don't have permanent home right now. I might have to do it anyway though.

  5. Thanks for the tour and for sharing some of the magic of your home. You're an artist that paints a wide canvas. Well done! I have enjoyed your blogs, posts and photos for some time now but have had the devil of a time "commenting" to show my appreciation. I am glad I finally seem to have sounded the right notes in the ritual :-)
