Even though the house is far from finished yet,
I wanted to show you the progress so far.
As I told you, first I will compleet the exterior
of the house, before I will start at the interior.
This is the door that allowes access to the
first floor and living part of the house. The door
needs a doorknob and I like to put a grid for
the window with an ornament. I also will
place a fence for the stairs for some safetey.
The roof above the door is made from wood
and lead.
I have painted the stairs a couple of times
before I was satisfied...I like the outcome
so far.
Is there living a.....mouse?
This is the door allowes access to the kitchen.
With a layer of tacky glue, I made the window
look old...love it! You can see through but not
clear...the curtain I made from a piece of old
lace Mercedes sent me.
To keep out intruders or just for a breath
of fresh air in the kitchen, without everyone
walking in, this iron fence will be very handy.
It is the same door I used in my little kitchen.
I like this very much, also because it reminded me
of Greece where my grandmothers house also had
these in front of every door.
Have you seen there are more houses in this
picture?
Also a memorie of my grandmothers house.....
swallow nests.
I could not help myself allready to decorate
a little bit....
The pottery table needs much more stuff, but
somehow I think it will be no problem to fill
it up with bits and pieces.
As you can see the bigger picture, this side
of the house needs still much work. The upper
walls will get some bricked windows. In the earlier
time of this building they placed windows but later
it turned out new residents prevered blind walls.
At the lower part of the wall (near the stairs) there
will be a wall painting. The chimney needs also work,
but that is for the next time....
