The light you see here was actually going to be
scrapped. I had it sandblasted then re-coated it in
gloss black and to finish it of "dry-brushed" the leaves

This living room in TN was faux-finished by someone
about 5 years ago. Recently this customer had a leak and
a plumber had to chop out some of the wall which left it
like this. |
 |
They gave me a call to see if I could disguise it in
any way. |
