I know it has been awhile but work continues on the little French doll house.  The first of the three mansard roof windows is installed and the other two are ready to be assembled. All their components are ready to go. I could finish the exterior of the house quite quickly if I just buckle down and make time to get it done. I am looking forward to that bit.

I did work on another miniature project over the Christmas break. It was a little 1:44th scale house I picked up a few years ago at the Kensington Dollhouse Festival in England. It is the Georgian Rectory from Templewood Miniatures, www.fineflowersinminiature.com
It it such a lovely little project and I am thoroughly pleased with the results, but it was a challenge. It actually took 3 full days to complete.
The kit came complete with miniature, wee tiny painting and frames, little rugs and lino for hallways and kitchen. I must admit, I used many bright coloured paints and every accessory the kit provided. 

You may notice that you are seeing the front parts of the staircase in one view and the back in the other. That is because the house open on both sides so you can see a full view of your work.


 This is the view from the other side, notice the wee little fireplaces.

  9. Did you realize there is a 12 word sentence you can communicate to your partner... that will trigger intense emotions of love and instinctual attraction for you buried inside his heart?

    That's because hidden in these 12 words is a "secret signal" that fuels a man's impulse to love, worship and look after you with all his heart...

    12 Words Will Trigger A Man's Desire Impulse

    This impulse is so built-in to a man's genetics that it will drive him to try harder than ever before to build your relationship stronger.

    Matter of fact, fueling this influential impulse is so essential to getting the best ever relationship with your man that the moment you send your man a "Secret Signal"...

    ...You'll soon find him open his soul and mind for you in such a way he's never expressed before and he will distinguish you as the only woman in the universe who has ever truly appealed to him.
