The Drink & Sleep Inn in
Marianville was built by Patty O'Furniture in 1862 in the style of old
Ireland. It was the first place for weary travelers to stay that also had
a small tavern inside where you could get a large ale before retiring for the
night. The prices were quite reasonable. A room with a window was
just 35 cents and a hot bath was included.

pounding effect for shading.

When using a translucent stain, you must spray between each application to set
the stain so that it won’t smudge. You do not need to do this with the
acrylics.
Note: If you find a color that is discontinued, ask your
Mayco distributor for a suitable replacement.
