Wall Art

We moved into a furnished and decorated house.  However, some of the  items are just not us.  One wall in our great room featured two, huge black and white photographs of African women. They had to go!

We located a local photographer and purchased two landscape photographs of the island for replacements.  She ordered the large size prints in Holland and arranged for them to get back to Bonaire.  That process took about two months.

Rick figured out how to get this glass frame off the wall without it breaking.  The photo had adhered to the glass.  We peeled and scraped the photo off the glass.  It took us two days to clean the glue off the glass frames. 

The prints came in a roll. Our home made press system of clips, bowls, boxes and blood pressure machine worked to flatten the the new photos after several days. The prints finally laid flat so they could be mounted behind the glass.  There is no frame just a 800mm x1200 mm glass and four clips that keep it attached to the wall.

Success! We love the scenery photos of the island. The colors are fabulous and fit our island home way better than black and white portrait photos of people we don't know.
