My New Mini(sort of)
My newest baby if you will -- think she's a German Shepherd mix of sorts. She was evidently found in a ditch by a woman that already has three dogs and couldn't keep her. An absolute sweetie and a reminder it's been a looooong time since we had such a young pup in the house! :D

Mystery church(for now)
Hopefully will remember to update this as I go in regards to my rehab of this church. It's a tab and slot dollhouse I picked up on 09/30/14, and I look forward to it's reawakening if you will. :)

Lawbre Shadowcliff Queen Anne
Going to do my best to actually document the before, during, and after of my work on rehabbing this one. Seems I generally just go for the after shots and never remember to document the journey.
Right now I only have the photos from the Craigslist ad and those that my friend sent me today. Really contemplating if I'm going to attempt to keep the color scheme, or go ahead and change it up. I've a real desire to be true to where this woman was trying to go -- but I'm not making any decisions til she's actually here and talking to me.

Victoria's Farmhouse Rehab/Remodel...
I got this house for free last year, definitely not in so great shape. The windows were all broken or missing, parts of walls/roof gone or broken, and the porch railing... I shudder to remember it. Painted on the exterior with an ugly brown that made me think of what could be found in a diaper and an off color cream. Topped off with a melted ice cream bar on the top balcony... Gotta love Craigslist! lol My transformation of what I think is becoming a great house!

DC Hickory Ridge Log Cabin
If you like instant gratification this kit definitely delivers. Had I chosen to leave the interior walls flat and not make them more dimensional with the awl, this literally would have been done in under two hours. :)

The Heather by Houseworks & RGT
I didn't remember to take pictures while I was making this one. However, thought to at least take pictures before I give it to my local contact for Relay for Life. I'll be donating at least four or five houses for them for the Christmas season to raffle off this year. :)

Walmer French Chateau
For now, this is to show what this behemoth looks like starting out, and hopefully chronicle my way through as she talks to me and tells me what she wants... Though she has a little wait for me to clear some other houses out of the road first. lol

Estate Sale Finds :)
Went to my first estate sale this past weekend with the sole intention of miniatures... This woman had a room literally stacked floor to ceiling with minis, and still had more elsewhere throughout the house(seemed a bit familiar... hahaha)

Petite Dreams by XL Machine
Haven't been able to find much out about the company or the house for that matter... But this was a find on Craigslist that for the price I figured I'd try my hand at rehabbing -- and boy does this poor gal need it!
I think the main issue is that it appears to have been painted multiple times with various types of paint. Seems it will be a long road now, but I've completely dismantled this and intend to make a few replacement pieces such as for the foundation that appear to have soaked up water or goodness knows what else. lol
Also, hoping to put in real glass windows to replace the painted over acetate in the entirety of the house.
