Ciaran visited the plaster moulding factory in Wicklow yesterday to choose plaster coving, ceiling roses and mouldings for the house. He brought along some samples of the coving that was originally in the house so that he could replace like with like.
He bought new mouldings for the arch in the hallway, a few ceiling roses and some new coving for the downstairs of the house.
The company he went to for the plaster works use traditional methods to make the plaster mouldings and all of their designs are based on authentic designs contemporary to certain periods and regions.
This blog was originally started to track our progress as we regenerated a derelict Victorian house in Dublin. We turned an old crumbling ruin in to our dream house! If you wish to read through the trials and tribulations of the house build it is best to start at the oldest blog post and read in date order. The blog then evolved in to being all about my life in Dublin, Ireland and then life in Malaga, Spain with artist "PIGSY" and now back in Dublin I hope you enjoy reading it!
