  1. Earth n Tree still has a good selection of half scale lighting but it's getting harder and harder to find. I used to get mine from the UK but those shops are gone or not stocking them either. I have a lighting tutorial on my website blog you might find helpful using the little string LED lights. Make shades with beads or small lids.
  2. Thanks Emily. I don't think that is the problem. I have drawing programs that I can save images in high DPI and they will print well on photo paper or high resolution paper but everything else they're blurry. I did consider asking a printing service to print for me, but not sure they'd print on fabric. And that it might be the same problem.
  3. Hi Carrie! Thanks gor replying. Oirs is an Epson too, but no, it doesn't even offer a draft quality print. I probably need to contact support and ask but find they are generally pretty useless. I will take a look to see if I can reduce the DPI.
  4. I have some printable fabric sheets and want to print mini designs on them. My printer uses huge amounts of ink, making any print on basic printer paper, vellum, acetate or fabric a dirty blurry mess (it is meant for good quality prints on high quality/photo paper). So I am wondering if anyone else gets good quality prints on such materials with their printer and if so, what brand/model is their printer? I am going to buy a cheap printer but want to be sure it will work. Thanks!
  5.

  6. There are books on art nouveau architecture that could help. And so many images on Pinterest. Like most architecture, the variation and amount of decoration/detail varies significantly and from country to country. Did you have a location in mind? English, French, Spanish? Our art nouveau architecture in Australia is quite different again (probably a lot simpler!).
  7. Would love but don't need.... Hope you sell it easily. It's so lovely.
  8. I can understand your frustration. I have put together plenty of kits from big name makers and the instructions were terrible. I suggest taking your time with the instructions and building, ask questions and check out how other people have done the trailer. Gina at this Blog has built all (?) or most (?) of the GL houses so might be of use. Not sure if she's done the travel trailer though.
  9. Happy new year all.
  10. It takes a stretch of the imagination to see a strong resemblence, but each to their own! The houses are lovely either way.
  11. If you are a perfectionist at heart, then you are may never feel differently. The only way to get better at any art is to keep practicing. I have taken 7 years of painting lessons and I still don’t feel like a great painter. It takes work. As does getting over the idea of perfectionism.
  12. Earth N Tree has its own range of windows in different sizes and probably a fair bit cheaper than Lawbre. Not sure if they’ll fit but worth a look. The Joseph Angel is a stunning house - you are very fortunate to still have one!
