You've done a spectacular job! I just adore looking at your house. The detail is so incredible! I can imagine all the work that went into your Beacon Hill. It looks like great fun! -
Some close-ups of my boathouse. Please check out my Artist's Boathouse album for more photos.

I painted the boat to fit in with the feel of the house. I created the water by pouring self leveling gel medium over painted paperclay covered styrofoam. Before adding the medium, I added some sand and pebbles to add to the reality factor. This was my first attempt at water. I'm pretty happy with the results. -

The front door and all my other original designs are created with the same technique. I glue a thin layer of paperclay onto the surface and while the clay is wet, I use my trusty clay tool and carve my designs into it. When it is dry, I go back and hand paint the designs. -

"tiles" on the veranda -

All the windows in the house were treated the same way. I added some Crystal Clear Gallery Glass to the corners of each pane after they were installed and spread it out a little to give the windows some character. -

This is an HBS unfinished washtub. I added some watermarks and dressed it up a bit. -

This is a picture climbing up from the basement to the kitchen. I created the floor in the kitchen by gluing down a thin layer of paperclay and pressing a flexible stamp shaped like little tiles into it. I added some grout lines and painted it. -

I created this easel from some balsa. Is anyone else amassing quite a collection of balsa? -

This is a dresser I made by gluing a mirror and some beads to an unfinished pine dresser. I painted it and added some accessories. I wanted a dreamy Whimsical look. The wall in here, as in much of the rest of the house is created by pressing a flexible stamp into paperclay which has been applied to the walls and then hand painting it. I especially like the birds! -

This is also a Chrysnbon kit. I glued a thin layer of Paperclay to the top and used a rubber stamp to make an impression. I hand painted each little section to give a mosaic effect. I couldn't bring myself to put anything on the table! -

This was a fun project! I found this silver medallion in the clearance section at Michael's. It had fish on it... It looked like the right size... Could it be a bistro tabletop? At $1.99, I had to try it. Voila, I Amazing Gooped it to the top of my Hobby Lobby table, filled in the hole for using it as jewelry and painted it. Add some treats and lemonade... -

This is a Chrysnbon stove kit. It was just too stark in solid black. Of course, I had to paint it to add a little character. I added a piece of dowel so it could vent to the outside. -

Here she is working on her own dollhouse. I needed a few cups of coffee to finish this contest house on time as well!
