Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas! 

Thought I would show some pictures of a Christmas Dollshouse scene I created a few years ago. It was published in Dollshouse World magazine, I think the December 2009 issue. Worked on it for months and love to display it every Christmas!



A bit over the top, I know but it was fun to do. My kitchen hasn't had much work since my last post as I have been busy with Christmas preparations, but I have done some wood painting and cut worktops as well as cutting the hole in the worktop for the sink. This was quite hard as I did it with a craft knife. I think it would be easier to drill holes first, which I didn't do.

Oven and worktop progress


Since my last post I have been painting and sanding all the base units ready for door fitting. I even added a door knob to one door. Going to try and find a smaller drill bit for the others as the one I used is slightly too big. I also painted, sanded and coated the plinths for underneath the bases.


This is how the layout will be with the sink in the middle of the island. I have built the extractor fan kit as you can see here.



A worktop has been cut and needs painting/covering with film for a granite effect. The oven front kit is really nice and looks great. It is a piece of black plastic, 2 pieces of aluminium  plus the handle, knobs and screen.
