Boathouse Storefront

As of late we have been working on the Fall window display. It is going to have a boat house theme; should look really cool when it is all finished up with a full size cardboard rowboat and 40 some odd buoys.

Here is some of the process that we have been through so far///


1. cut and bend
2. shape and glue

7. use wood stain for aged look
8. stencil numbers

more steps to come///
