Some progress!

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....
