As I was placing lots of items in the kitchen I discovered that lots was still not enough, so I had a good hard look to see what a complete kitchen would still need. First I discovered the dish...
I am going to bore you with some more pictures. :-) Not that I am a great photographer, far from that, neither have I done a lot of work, but I am filling downstairs with the little things that...
Its been a few weeks again, but I have been working on the house in the meantime, albeit with problems where I least expected them. I am just not having a very good time, but hey, well persever...
Well, my pondering worked, as well as my corresponding with like minded mini-friends. I received a few tips about making curtains so I set out to work. As you know, I didnt want to use a pretty...
A short update this time with but a few photos.I have attached the windows and glazing. Not a very exciting job, nor a very quality job either. The glazing is only the see-through kind us...
I had more time as usual of late and spent most of it working on my miniatures. I had a piano to finish, made a piano stool and there was also this kit which I was working on. Today it al...
Since that piano looked a bit lonely so by itself I decided Id make a piano stool as well. I cant finish the piano anyway at the moment, because I thought it lacked something and that is some m...
Another diversion. I am all over the place right now. Just the way I like it! Just doing things I feel like doing. This time I have done some more work on my ironing board, because ...
Today I got a bit frustrated with working on the house. I shouldnt forget that from the beginning this house was to practice on and get some experience, but when things go wrong, like today, I ...
With tennis on tv in the background I thought Id fill a bit of time getting another installment done on my dolls house story. Its been a while since I have worked on it, partially because of he...
I know I was telling you all about the dolls house I am building, but sometimes I take a break and do other things instead. This time I have been trying out the new machines I bought earlier la...
After I had finished the kitchen I started on the hallway. Both on the ground floor and first floor there are supposed to be stairs, but when Id put in the stairs to the first floor I regretted...
I received so many lovely comments last time. Thank you all. It seems you are waiting for another instalment. Well, here we go....I finished the kitchen in June 2002.&nb...
Finally I seem to have found some time to tell you about my dolls house. I have had it for over ten years now, and shame on me, I havent done much with it yet. However, I am very grateful...
While waiting for the hinges to arrive (did you notice I didnt mention the word patiently?) I decided I could finish another project that has been sitting on my desk for too long.Remembe...
I was going to make some more articles besides the bread and needed small pieces of wood and dowel. As I still want to hang on to all my fingers, and the normal size push sticks wont do for thi...
Did I make bread, or was it baking bread? :-) I guess a bit of both. It depends on how you look at it....I did make some bread, although it had stopped raining ages ago. Remember it...
Not much new to show though, since I have been to the Dollshouse Club yesterday. I cant do more spray painting, because its raining, so Ill show you the pictures of the completed boxes and hand...
Although we both have been working hard today, I havent much to show for it. It was repetitive work mostly for me: sanding, staining, sanding, painting, more sanding, more painting........pfff....
Just a quick update on the bread delivery cart. Yes, weve been working hard today (after wed both done the boring household chores!) Frank kept cutting and soldering and burning his finge...
I am taking a short break from my work on the florists and have started on a project I have been planning to do since the year 2000! Its an old fashioned bread delivery cart from one of the min...
Ive been home for a week now and still getting over the jet lag and all the excitement that the three months away overseas have brought me. I had a fantastic time if not the time of my life, be...
Finally the day has come. Not only have I been lucky enough to be able to visit the Arnhem Dolls house fair earlier this year, but at the end of our touring-through-Europe-holiday I get to spen...
Yes, indeed. Another workshop, but first another meeting with miniature friends (or is it: friends in miniatures?) Anyway, a meeting with likeminded friends. Who could ask for more?...
It’s probably starting to sound a bit boring for you, but it wasn’t for me! For this workshop I had to travel to Zoetermeer again where we were received by Bert and his wife Jacqueline with a lovely ...
On Friday I went to a farewell party as the founder of our small Miniatures group in The Netherlands is leaving for Sweden. There are only two members from downunder (one of which is me) an...
