Hello Everyone, I live in south Florida and I have a few kits still in boxes I would like to sell so I can make room for smaller scales. I have the following kits: Emerson Row Lisa's Cottage ( I have three of these, 2 sealed in box, one I opened the box but never took it out) Brimble's Mercantile Willowcrest Fantasy Craft - Craftsman Porch & Cottage (bought loose kit on ebay but never built) Local pickup preferred. Thanks, Jennybee

Hi Jen, Craigslist is another option as well as the Community Trading Post in this forum. Best of luck

Yes but I like to think "The Little's" that are in my house take them because they really really need them. Also someday when i find their house I bet it will be amazing!!! I am still at a loss for the sock theif though on laundry day....

Thanks soo much Fov! It will be interesting to see how much is really there or missing. Sometimes it's a hit or miss with eBay.

It's the modern one with the yellow stove and fridge on the cover of the box. Suprisingly it even still had the bottle of dried up glue and plastic paint brush in the box. I'm wondering what all I am missing though... If I have all the cabinet wood pieces I will be a happy camper. Lol

Afternoon everyone, I recently got the Real-life Miniatures Kitchen kit but without instructions. Would anyone here happen to have the instructions? Thanks in advance, Jennybee

Howdy Kelly, Yes over the years I have found painters tape can by really helpful. I know even have to keep an eye on my roll cause on occasion the hubby borrows it! ha I use it for holding the siding, shingles, flooring and even the actual structure when I am attaching the walls. Ohh a new kit how exciting!!

Last time I purchased them it was at Sears or JC Penny and they had separates for those who are not a one size fits all. For instance when it comes to tops and skirts or dresses with jackets usually the jackets need to be a size larger. Ok back to the swim suit, I was able to pick up swim shorts and a top that still was stylish but that I was comfortable and didn't feel like I was showing off too much. Also they had them in every style and color so I was not stuck with something I would only wear at home.

No Rik Pierce for the Orlando one either or anyone who does paper clay. Although the anything goes make your own doll does sound cool!

Maybe the house wanted it that way and wants to be flipped!! Blame the house always blame the house!! Then walk away very quietly.

Man we totally rocked that contest didn't we!!! Everyone did a super awesome job. I just finished looking through all the entries and I love the fact that from one kit can create sooooo many different inspiring builds. :worthy: :worthy:

Ohh Kelly I am so very excited you won!! You did an amazing job!

No I have not used gator-board but I was thinking of getting some for a scrap build. I know paper clay folks like it. I did a Google search and got this as a example of the difference between the two. Foam core and gator-board look a lot alike. The difference is that while foam core is paper on either side of a slice of styrofoam, gator-board is a heavy (think oak tag) moisture impregnated paper on either side of the same styrofoam. Since the paper doesn't accept moisture, it is much more stable dimensionally. I also looked up images of it on d*** Blick (online art supply company) and the styrofoam looked denser on the images.

I just finished a mini scene with a little resin house I got a while back. The whole thing fits in one of those acrylic holders for a baseball. I think its officially the smallest scene I have done. So that's one completed project for 2015 right? I have a feeling the next project will take longer. lolol

If you had a choice would gator-board be better and less chance of warping in a build. I was thinking of scratch build with paperclay.
