I think the Chez Yanis idea is marvelous and what a beautiful tribute to Yanis. The mouse with the beret , vest, and jacket is cute and eye catching. Also, hanging it out as a shingle is brilliant too! Yanis is so sweet:"Really?" he says. Ahhhh! Simon not kissing anyone or being kissed. How can that be? He is not only a magpie (I like magpies) but a sweetie-pie!

An idea for the Stainglass windows, you could hang them independently in the upper levels of the library in the windows they would create beautiful lights among the books and artwork. When one would walk into the lower level of the library they would look up and be enchanted by the lights. You all are doing great work, you are amazing to watch every day you are accomplishing a great deal.‼️

Back in the early 1990s I visited a new place in Raleigh, North Carolina, that was being converted to a swanky bar. In that bar was an ornate wooden vintage western style bar complete with mirror, shelves and carvings. Your bar will look as strikingly stunning someday. The entire convent will be a venue of the upmost importance on a high Michelin scale.

For Simon: if you want to play with those fluorescent lights, at least in the US, there are now LED tubes available for older fixtures. You have to take out the ballast (I think that is what you call the starter) and wire them in directly. Brighter and quieter and longer lasting.

Where that former storage area was.. you should put new doors and shelves in there and use it for storage of items needed in the dining room. No need to change the wall because it won’t be seen when the door are closed and when opened you will see some of the history of the convent. Great Chez Yanis sign!

I've always had an appreciation for the architecture of the past, and dreamed of rehabbing some older structures! I've always wanted to see a full blown castle, rebuilt as close to historically correct as possible, including the process of gathering materials, like hand hewn timbers! None of the new, but revisiting the old ways! Time consuming, but I think it'd be worth the ultimate rehab!!!

There’s an old heritage house which just completed a AU$30 million (€18 million) renovation here in Brisbane, Australia. They lovingly restored the massive stained glass panels in the ceiling above the old beautiful oak staircase. Huge panel that eliminates the stairwell. Another idea for your surplus panels in the bar. (For those asking - it’s called ‘Lamb House’ and you can watch the renovation at ABC Australia).

It is generally ideal for artwork to be hung at eye level. If you had a piece of art, (or tapestry, or whatever) you might want a piece that was taller than what the utility cabinet is and if so, you might think about putting another stud vertically centered above the utility cabinet, so you'd have something to nail to.
