  1. I am building this house from right to left if you were standing in front facing the house. So it goes kitchen/greatroom/bathrooms and stairwell/ den or office with the bedroom over it. I am currently working on finishing the bathroom so I can start work on the intricate staircase. Happy to answer any questions you might have.
  2. At some point I made a custom light fixture to hang in the entryway of the house. The chrome looking top is actually from a shampoo bottle
  3. **Update to this dusty thread. Ok so where do I begin because its been quite the hiatus. Well the big news is me and the Mrs. were finally able to get a proper house (we bought a house) thanks to covid. We were able to take all that extra money from the government and make a down payment out of it. All of my time and energy since then has been put in to fixing up the real house and unfortunately the mini house took a backseat. If I’m being honest there were times when I wasn’t sure if I would return to minis. I kept telling myself “ You’ve put too much time and energy into this house to just leave it unfinished.” It took some self prodding but I am happy to say I am back at it, easing myself in and reacquainting myself with this house. Last posted to my gallery was the finished Greatroom still pleased with how this turned out now on to the new stuff…

    Scratch built dollhouse

    My 2nd build where I attempt to build a contemporary dollhouse from scratch. Lots of experimenting, hopefully it all comes together.

    This light was the last progress made on my house…this was about 2 years ago :(

    Custom light I made for the entryway of my house. Each light rod had to have a single LED light behind to achieve the effect I was looking for.
  7. I used cork on my house but went with an uneven look 🙂
  8. Outstanding work and honestly 18 months is not that bad. Checked out the gallery and lots of great details, especially like the kitchen countertop, patio doors and the terra cotta floor. Nice touch having it run up the wall as a base.
  9. Well that is interesting. I may have to give this a go. Your pieces look great!

    Fantastic! I find making mini lights to be the most challenging.

    Great Room Details

    Thank You! Much appreciated. For this room I wanted to do a predominately white room but I tried to introduce a few select pieces of color to balance it out.
  13. Thank you! The arches were not easy to cut… fortunately I still have all my fingers 😬
  14. Thank you very much for your thoughtful comments. The overall inspiration for this room actually came from a hotel lobby. The curved arches came about as a result of the skylight ceiling and not being able to go straight up with them.
  15. Thank You! I was counting on them to grab the viewers attention…. so thanks for noticing 🙂

    A Tale of Two Tables

    Thank you Linda, you’re too kind Thanks! I don’t have many pics of that table, surprisingly it’s not one of my favorite pieces that I’ve made.

    Thank You! Thank you, pictures just don’t do it justice. The lid comes off too 🙂 Thank you so much!

    A Tale of Two Tables

    Thank you so much. The elephant was really fun to make. I know of a few other people who do this so I can’t take credit for it but I’m putting a mini elephant of some kind in all my builds 🙂
  19. Thank you everyone, very much appreciated!

    Very professional looking Susie. I just ordered a wicker piece from somewhere in Europe, I forget where exactly. I could have had you make it for me 😉 How did you color it? Paint? Dye?

    Complete for now, I may tweak a few things but for the most part it came out as I had imagined it.

    Custom made pillar stand for my favorite piece of mini pottery.

    “Both light and shadow are the dance of love”- Rumi I get some amazing effects in this room with the many ways light enters this room

    Beautiful house. Have you decided on an overall color palette for the outside?
