dooder85 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 So its official, i'll never finish the glencroft or the others. Had a bit of a house fire in an unbelievable stroke of luck (?) I had a lily kit in the trunk of the car, so i guess that's what i'm doing while my house is rebuilt. I've gone through the blogs, it looks like this kit has a few tricks to it - can anyone remember some things they'd wish they had done differently in a build?

KathieB Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Hey, Aaron, welcome back! Sorry to hear about the fire. I was going to suggest checking the moreminis.blogspot.com site for guidance, but apparently there's a problem with photos and the entire site is migrating to Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/moreminisdollhouses/. Lucky for you, she is in the process of adding her Lily tutorial. The universe appears to be smiling on your project. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Welcome home, Aaron! {hug} I have a Lily still in its box, so I'll be watching your build closely. I'm so sorry to hear about your house fire. Our youngest son had a tree fall on both sides of his duplex in January and the owner of the other side has done NOTHING towards getting it repaired, so every time it pours down rain (in N FL, which is a whole lot) it pours into the next door unit and under the common wall into our son's side, giving our son's contractor fits.

L Swearengin Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 My lily was not hard. I did buy super thin wood from Menards for the bent roof. Made it easier than trying to bend the kit wood. I did some "adjustments". But that was just my personal preference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooder85 Posted July 8, 2017 Author Share Posted July 8, 2017 I've been out of this for too long.. i forgot the golden rule that is "dry fit", my progress has been hindered a few times now by having to re do a few things lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Aaron, if you're still here, did you ever start your Lily? I'm building mine now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
