Now we have to increase the number of the folds on the blind. Just copy the blind's layer and change the placement's angle and the copy's size (ctrl+t), Then place it close to the folds that we already have on the previous layer (that was possible to do exactly after the textile's placement under the girl's layer). Combine the layers with the blind's parts and apply the next filter (Filter - Distort - Shear).

Combine again the flares' parts. Then copy many times the layer and change the size of the copies and placement's angle (ctrl+t). Place the flares on the ornaments. To make the brilliance more intensive, we have to merge down all the layers containing the flares (ctrl+e). Copy the new layer and blur out the copy (Gaussian Blur).



Choose now the picture of a pretentious frame.



Erase its background and place the frame above the wall's layer. Correct its color with Hue/Saturation (ctrl+u).
