The Taft General Store dollhouse - Days 04 to 10

Hello, my good people!

I forgot to update my blog... BAD ME, BAD!
I did lots of things and now I'm choosing floors... Choices are mean!
But ANYWAY, here what I had done:

I glued the strips of the door side panels in place (although I decided to discard that later on):


I added the roof trimmings:


I made a third floor with cardboard, mansard style roof:



Roof was up!:









Front-ish roof was up:



 The open back trimmings were added:



Testing the best placement for the second floor inner wall :


I ended choosing this one:


I unglued the front-ish roof so I could cut the staircase head-gap (?):


And I added a little window for the bathroom in the third floor:


The hard work to make a spiral staircase from scratch was painful:






 The front door was taped in place and the little window seats glued so I could make the floor templates:


The 'glass' tiles on the front entrance was taped so they are not damaged:


My choice for the ground floor, two kinds of glass tile:
 

I did try some tiles for the exterior, but I didn't have enough tiles to finish the front. If I find more of the same thin ones I'll do it.
What do you think? YEY or NEY:


I also added the third floor' inner wall:


And now I'm cutting popsicle sticks for the second floor (hall/living area and kitchen/dinning are). For the third floor I think I'll use tiles on the bathroom and wood for the bedroom area.

That's all for now,
Cheers!
