  1. it is .... i wanted an very english country cottage look.. but i dont think any one in UK will buy it .. given the recession etc.. i tried last year and its been on ebay too and in the local paper i really have no where for it .. and really want to get on with my fairfield project... but i refuse to give it away .. way too much work has gone into it for that
  2. hi I am selling cobweb cottage so i can move on to other projects. i would like it to go to a good miniaturists home it has been very well made and finished to a high standard, kit bashed and landscaped and lit .. so there is also a country garden ther are a couple of tiny pieces that do still need finishing ( ie front door knocker, there are also a couple of broken bits (story behind that ) which makes it a bargain if you are interested please take a look here and make me a sensible offer http://homepage.ntlworld.com/dp.grice/theglencroft.htm the furniture you see here is not included you would obviously need to pick up from UK.... but if its something you want it shouldnt be a problem.. we could always arrange to meet halfway say !!!

    Sara's Laurel aka The Dog House

    this is the Laurel I won, it is now my daughters house and we are doing it together
  5. i am having lots of ideas rushing round my head. I love the Beacon hill and have loved looking at the pics that have been posted of a couple recently. I have almost decided, that i am going to use foam core board and make a 1.2 scale version, with a few additions. I think i may add a longer kitchen, with a patio area to walk out onto, and I also want a basement, the stairs will be slighty different, as want the large picture window to be a feature. just printed out loads of beacon hill pics for inspiration and am just off now to do some sketches well might do a mock up in card tommorow. what cha think ???

  12. http://www.greenleafdollhouses.com/forum/i...m&album=354 here is mine about halfway down, i no longer have it, but i was bashing way back then and didn't know it. i added a door to the side and a downstairs bathroom. i am sure it will be pretty simple to put together
  13. thats the one thanks, spent hours searching and trying to remember, she is one cool lady, does anybody know her, is she on here
  14. i found a website a few years ago and saved a few pic from it, but never saved the link. they person had made many houses, and from what I remeber they where housed in a basement, with the houses aroundthe walls (i know they defo had a glencroft) and well as a whole load of room boxes which where set up as a block of apartments, each apartmant had an entrance, living ara, bedroom and bathroom. here are som pics to 'hopefully' jog your memories the blue bedroom is from the glencroft, and i am sure the modern room is from the run of apartments heres hoping, cos it was a very inspiring website
  15. they are really nice, lovely and delicate perfect for half scale !!
