Don't Sweat the Small Stuff!...

Hi, there! I'm starting to go a little crazy working on many projects at once...I got a little tired with "stoning" the exterior and took a break to try my hand at making mini furniture and accessories. I made an antique wood "wet sink" with a copper (colored) sink - it needs a pump as well. I will either buy one or try to make one if I'm feeling ambitious. I also tried making some plates out of polymer clay with a paper design mod-podged on. They turned out a little wobbly (o.k. alot wobbly) but I tried doing this without gathering the proper tools...soooo I'll need to try again. The itty bitty glassware came in the mail today and is amazingly proportioned for its size (1/2" glasses and 1" decanter). The stones on the chimney are egg carton with pastel powder colors brushed on. Now I need to seal them and grout the spaces in between.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Feeling a little stoned...

Visions of little paper squares danced through their heads...
I've been cutting and pasting (a very technical skill) little carton rectangles onto my house to create a stone block effect. I think it's working quite well although my lines are a little wobbly here and there. I won't get an honorary ticket from the masonry guild, but I think it looks fairly realistic. I was hoping to do some Christmas decorating on the house this year, but maybe It'll have to wait until next year. Merry Christmas, to whomever's out there in cyber dollhouse land!

Just messin' around...

Well, I'm currently working on flooring and painting the balcony and front porch. Here are a few pictures of that and just some messin' around with the camera and some close-ups.
