Building my house update



Well work is proceeding on my dollhouse. The first problem I had after I had put together the basic carcass was my youngest granddaughters little fingers and hands. My temporary solution to that was to make some keep out signs and tapes to put across the front and it worked. I told her that the fairies, she believes I am best friends with fairies, put up the tapes as warnings.





However since then I have decided to work on the front of the house as that will be a more secure barrier. I have made up the front doors although I have not attached them to the house yet as it will be easier to work on the inside if I can remove them. I have finished the lower floors and am working on the window frames for the attic. A little difficult as I have to curve to roofs of the attic windows and it is not the easiest thing to do but getting there.


 
The actual windows in the kit are plastic and I am not sure that I like them very much so I am trying to decide on whether to make the windows out of strip wood, probably will.

In the meantime I have bought hundreds of wooden lolly stick which I am going to cut the curved ends off and then use them as floorboards, I think it will work.Let you know.
