Today I have just bought a large 1/12th from EBay, so...........guess what.........the Gate House has become my winter-in-Florida build (again) for later this year. The theory being it gives me something mini to go at during those six months and, at this size, stuff is easily transportable each way with a final destination being the UK in a couple of year's time when we give up on our peripatetic lifestyle.
Meanwhile I took two walls to the show at the NEC and left them with the wonderful Malcolm of Malcolm's Miniatures. He is going to make me three internal doors (that open!) Please click on his name and look at his website - he does the most fantastic stuff. If nothing else go and look at his doors - seriously - they are worth a visit in themselves.
This is my colour scheme of 'greenery-yallery' (with the odd pop of red maybe) in keeping with the Arts and Crafts furniture my two little people are collecting for their home.
Lovely colours! So peaceful.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your articles in the new Doll house and Miniature Scene magazine. Finally had a chance to sit down with it last night. My neighbour saves all her tiny jam bottle for me (she likes to go out for tea!) and I use them to store all my beads and little bits and bobs too!
I'm off to have a look at those lovely doors you're on about.
