The Fairfield dollhouse - Days 64 to 71!

HI!

WARNING!!: This post is picture heavy!

I added the tiles on the porch floor. I decided for white tiles:


Those plastic cross 'thingies' are spacers for the tiles. Very helpful!




Tower roof support 'beams' added too:



Dry fit of the porch railings... meh...(maybe I'll make some from scratch):


I added some support for the porch roof :


The windows inner 'glassed' panels drama begins. I did not liked this one very much. So the rest will be single panels.



Porch roof glued in place:


More windows inner 'glassed' panels :






This one sucked something awful to do... argh!


A front view...


I found that if you lightly sand the borders of the 'glass', they glue more sturdy to the wood trimmings:


And more windows inner 'glassed' panels:


Another sucky one to do:

Trimming on the porch roof in place:


Trimming on the bay windows roofs also in place:



That's all for now. I still have a attic window (ANOTHER sucky one) to do the ground floor larger one (former door) and the round ones - I'm going to make them diamond shaped... I NO like round windows :( ... then I'll add the tower roof and add the porch railings and the final trimmings and then to finish I'll spray paint (maybe add some color outside?) and THEN it's shingles time!!!!

Later!

In other news - the end of the big hiatus

Hi everybody!

That was a very big hiatus!!! Almost four months... ufi ufi!

My sister, my mom and I decided to move to a new and bigger condo so I had to pack everything in the 'workroom'. Then the renovations took longer than we expected... Renos sucks! All this happened while I was fighting a freaking flu that did not wanted it to end.
But all is better now! I only have a few shelves to add into the new workroom and I'll be back in saddle.

And I just noticed I have a new follower!?!!! HEEELLOOOOO AMARY!!!!!!!!! WELCOME!!!!!

Till later, Cheers!

The Fairfield dollhouse - Day 59

Hi, everybody!

Trimming times! ARGH!!!
I didn't like the trimmings from the kit so I'm making new ones from scratch using popsicle sticks.
This is the ground/first floor staircase gap:


And the first pair of windows in the ground floor:





I didn't add the exterior trimmings because I'm thinking about changing the exterior color:



Till next time, Cheers!!
