Ok I need to know what transparencies. I picked up some for teh printer from the office supply shop and when I looked at them they were not really see through like they were cloudy. So is there a specific kind?
Thanks Bec
What did you use for the inside? Just the top layer? Cause I really like that simple but elegent look. And with my idea for some pillows that might just be the ticket.
Bec
Deb,
Been looking at your pics. Love them by the way.
And I am going to put the seats in Aunt B too
Did you make the glass inserts that went in above the windows? They look really cool.
Well I went ahead and sanded down the lips or edges and it may look a bit rough right now but I am really liking it.
Thanks for the advice ladies!
Bec
Ok all,
I need some advice. the bay windowarea in the beacon hill aka Aunt B have like a lip on the side walls. Is the bay area supposed to be flush with the walls? I am getting ready to start on decorating and I want to make sure before I sand them flush.
Thanks!

Do brothers count?
JR helps by ripping my wood and having an extra pair of hands and eyes. He sticks up for me with my family... mom and dad and the rest dont get it.
I tried to make him second in command for the houseboat but he refused lol. But he is always there to listen when I do magic words ;) He has even come up with a few.
I have gotten up on sleepless nites and he wakes up and comes out too.
One time I was just sitting there staring at the item and he got a chair and stared too and then quietly said got an answer yet. It cracked me up so bad I had the giggles for quite sometime.

Well here is my story.
Several years ago Monti chose me at the humane shelter. We had a great life together. Then Monti got sick and had to be put down. I was so heartbroken. So very heart broken.
Susan at work called me out of the blue and said Bec I am coming to visit you. So she came and in her purse was too baby kittens. She said just hold them for a while they will help you feel better but the kittens had their own design lol. She said why not keep them? I said nooooo no one can replace my Monti. She said ok and went to the bathroom before she left. Didnt think anything of it at the time. I then I kept hearing mewings and finally went and checked and there was Chaser and Ruby
Boy was I mad at her but I couldnt fault the kittens. And now they been with me for 5 years and I love them just as much as Monti. Chaser was so named cause he chased anythign and everything. Ruby named cause she was kind of sickly with her heart and when she got tired her eyse turned a Ruby red lol.
So that is my story.

Aunt B speaks to me but sometimes I am stubborn so then she really lets me know.
I thought I heard her say yesterday, "you idiot told you that is what I wanted".
And crazy is not a disease it is a way of life for miniaturists that is what I say.
Bec
Thanks everyone!
Well wasnt satisfied with the longer window so made it shorter. Thanks Mel for being a sounding board
And yes Irene I knew I wouldnt be happy with a long window and 4 shorter windows hehehehe. Just had to think and decide.

PS Pic is in the gallery.
Hello all,
Took a bit of time off from mini's to clean and organize my house. Well I got an itch to start on the windows in the kitchen of Aunt B.
Put a pic in my gallery of my prototype I like it so far now to replicate it
Bec
Matte board. Acid free can get it i in white. good and stiff but thin. I use it to line my walls. Maybe about 1/16 thick.

Arda,
This wont help but I remember my first psych class in college many moons ago. And he was pretty much the same way.
What struck me as funny was remembering that he truely believed that when people flew that they didnt go anywhere. That it was like a big movie set and they just changed scenes and scenery. And that they sort of did mind control on it.
And then what a few years ago we had that movie where it was like that lol. My Ex husband and I laughed at that
Sorry your first day was frustrating hope it gets better.
