Day 350 of 365 Days of Boulderado Photos ~ Detail on Spruce Window

This detail even snuck up on me! I never noticed this scrollwork on the window frame of the Spruce Room from the outside until I was on the photoshoot for the last photo in the 365 Days series. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to figure out a way to get it in.

Day 347 of 365 Days of Boulderado Photos ~ Victorian Touches

Sometimes when you are trying to bring a period to life, it is the little details and touches that make the difference. This is one of those examples. None of what you see in this photo is antique or authentically from the Victorian era. But potted ferns are a must in Victorian decor, and the vase and box look like they belong in a home during that era as well.

Day 319 of 365 Days of Boulderado Photos ~ Detail of Dresser Trunk

Check out the gorgeous detail found on a dresser trunk we have on display here at the Hotel Boulderado. Like so many other antiques around here, whenever I gaze upon this, I think "They just don't make them like they used to."

Peacocks, pheasants, and owls, oh my! That is the theme of the four Christmas trees located in the atrium of the North Wing at the Hotel Boulderado. Here is a closeup shot of one such peacock, ready to wish our guests a happy holiday season!

Day 258 of 365 Days of Boulderado Photos ~ Fan Detail: Figure Playing Trumpet

I've passed by this fan dozens of times through the last year or so, but it wasn't until I look a very close look at the detailing that I realized there is a figure playing the trumpet on this blue fan in our displayed collection.

Day 135 of 365 Days of Boulderado Photos ~ Detail over Door to Events Center

I'll be the first to admit this. I'm short, and I don't look up that often; as a result, I often miss out on things that are obvious to others. I missed this detail for years before finally noticing it while on a hunt for 365 Days photos. It's just a little decorative touch over the entrance to the Events Center from Pine Street, but now I'm constantly looking up to see what else I may have missed.

Day 90 of 365 Days of Boulderado Photos ~ Detail on Fire Extinguisher

Whenever I look closely at the handles for the front doors to the Hotel Boulderado, the scrollwork never fails to remind me of owls. What do they remind you of?

Day 44 of 365 Days of Boulderado Photos ~ Detail on Mirror

ROAR! This lion detail is missed by many, even though it's located in a high-traffic area. Next time you are crossing the skywalk from the Historic Section to the North Wing and come upon the mirror on the north wall, take a closer look at its top to see this guy roaring at you.

Day 13 of 365 Days of Boulderado Photos ~ Mezzanine Bar Detail

Next time you're ordering a drink from the Mezzanine bar, you might take a moment to check out the elephant head detail. Few people see them, even though they're hiding in plain sight here at the Hotel Boulderado
