I have started a new thread for my finishes as it would have taken some time to dig out my last SAL thread. :lol:

Yay I get to start something new :D :dance: :D

Thanks everyone.
Serinde - a 2.5 inch wide double, think-it-was-off-white mount, and a wooden frame a bit darker than our teak furniture. Should be ready in about 2 weeks.
Not finally decided where it will hang - we have several options and will try them all out to see which will be the best.

Mags what a beautiful finish!! :applesauce: :applesauce:
Do you know if it's an actual castle? Looks like it could be in Bavaria!

So what's next? :thinks:
