The Archways are 2 Units wide spread out over a 5
unit wide grid. I decided to make the opening on the
2nd and 3rd grid marks.
The black area will be cut out but as you can see,
the Top Support of the Decal is kept as an arch.
Keep the bottom halves of the decals, you will need
them later. |

Now cut out the black area of the Foamcore. This
will give you the width of the Hallway Arch. |

Now make a copy of the Decal Wall for the opposite
side and place your stickers as you did on the Main
Wall.
Remember to place them on the Mirrored side, you
don't want the same side decorated on both pieces. |

I next cut out 3 pieces to make the inside walls.
TWO for the sides and ONE for the top. |
|
 |
|
|

Use the Hot Glue gun to attach the 3 pieces to one
of the walls.
Remember the Decal side of the wall must be face
down against the cutting board.
Take your time and attach 1 piece at a time.

Once cooled and secured, I placed the Top piece,
aligning it with the wall sides and ceiling. |

The really COOL thing about the design is that it
is exactly ONE unit wide, which means you can place
it pretty much anywhere in your hallway. |

Take one of the Decals you trimed the Top off and
apply it on the inside wall of the doorway. |
|
 |
|
|

Repeat the same step with the second sticker at the
opposite end of the doorway. |
|
 |
|

Now take the printed Decal of the Neon Hall Ceiling
and cut along the edges. |
|
 |
|

Peel back the wax backing and stick the Decal to
the underside of the doorway. Looks cool doesn't it? |
|

Since the Doorway needs an end piece, I cut a foamcore
rectangle that fits perfectly in between the front
and back layers. |
|
 |
|
February 13, 2005
Take your Hot Glue and secure the wall end to the
Door Frame. |
|
 |
|
February 13, 2005
Last step, select one of your favourite Wall unit
decals (I chose the neons) and stick it to the end
wall. |

Your Wall Archway is complete and fits anywhere against
the diorama wall panels. |
