Take Me...To the next Level!

[etherial]

rosinavs and I are thinking of taking our relationship to the next level. That's right. We're thinking of buying a pavilion together. There are a couple of things we haven't decided on yet, but the biggest question that we want input on has to do with decorating the damned thing. This is going to be a lot of white canvas, so judicious application of color is important. For reference, my favorite color is green and hers is purple. My arms are (the as of yet unapproved) Gules, in annulo 3 Goutty de Poix in annulo, at fesse point a triangle ployé inverted Sable. Hers are Azure, a pile issuant from sinister base Purpure fimbriated Or.

For the easily bored, that means we like black, blue, gold, green, purple, and red.

Don't get poles that are taller than you can handle yourself.

Buy 'em. Life is short.

I was going for the darker reds, until someone here mentioned color-fastness. Spot on!

Decorating along the lines of the structure will be easiest. Any decorations on a curved surface are going to be a lot trickier than you think. Have you ever tried painting a grecian urn? It's really hard. If you do go this route, experiment first with some sort of image transfer technology.

I have never painted wode on a grecian urn, but I hear you on the image transfer technology. I've done freehand work on curved miniatures, and that's a pain. Fortunately, this tent is approximately polyhedral, but there will be curves.
