The Real Hansel and Gretel Story--Adams House Contest
For my contest entry I made the house into a gingerbread house and changed the story of Hansel and Gretel. The "witch" is really a sad, old woman who went to pick berries one morning to return to find her house with her entire family in it burnt down. Her skill was to bake, so she baked herself a new house. The local townspeople started rumors about her and found her strange after her family died so the rumors of her being an evil witch were begun. When Hansel and Gretel found her house, she adopted them and taught them how to bake so they would have a skill to fall back on.

Spring Fling
As I dry fitted this little building it spoke to me. It did not want to be a boat house like originally planned but a model of one of my favorite ice cream places on the Cape--Sundae School.

Half Scale Refurbish
This is a house my minister found at the church and no one wanted. He thought of me. I'm going to fix it up for the church fair in the fall.

Mark Twain Riverboat--Houseboat contest
I made my houseboat into a steamship from Mark Twain's era. The two rooms were inspired by his house in Hartford. Growing up, I belonged to the church across the street from it. His house was a favorite of my family's to visit. I have considered giving it to my mother since Mark Twain is a favorite of hers, but she does not have the space for it right now.

Sweetheart
Pictures of the Duracraft Sweetheart I made for charity. I was going to give it to Toys for Tots, but decided to see if the library wanted to raffle it off as a fundraiser so it will benefit not only the child who wins it but the entire library.
