I know I haven't posted in a long time....real life keeps getting in the way, and i wanted to wait until i had my new dollhouse before posting. That way, I could post pics of it as it progresses. This is a little cottage..it's 1/4 scale and was pretty easy to build. It came in a kit and took me about an hour to assemble. I must say, the "direction" were not what i expected. When you open your kit, you get the boards with the punch out pieces (easy enough) and a parts sheet. That's where it ends. The package says to use the parts sheet as your instructions and refer to the picture as best as you can....REALLY?? Ok...I can do this! So...I did!! :) I was going to do a step by step picture tutorial on how I put it together, but I didn't think of that until after the fact. Oh well..I will on the next one :)
This first pic is the front of the house. The play-doh can is for size reference. I didn't really think a quarter would do.
the second pic is the back of the house. As you can see, I still need to do the inside. That may take a while to get all the furnishings done. I'll have to buy what I can't make...
This last pic shows the house on the board that I'm using as the base. It will be properly landscaped with a driveway, and a lawn. I'm thinking about putting in a wishing well and a swingset for the kids who may live there one day. I'm trying to decide what car the owners will drive...maybe a station wagon? (ooh i cringe at the thought of driving a wagon again lol)
Now that I actually have my lil house, I think I can post more often with updates on its progress...that's the plan anyway.....TTFN (ta ta for now!)
