I am finally back.  I have not been able to do minis since about the beginning of December.  I have found out that I have what is know as "trigger finger".  So it's just me and Annie Oakley.  In the meantime I have re-organized by miniatures.  You have to understand that since I am not the "fly by the seat of my pants" girl everything was organized but now it is super organized.  My sister, Joyce, said the hoarders would love me because they wouldn't have to get rid of anything.

Anyway, moving on.  I was getting a little worried that since I've been doing a lot more of my friend's, Marilyn, flying by the seat of my pants that in the end nothing would fit together.  So after enlarging the house slightly I decided to join the outside walls to the floor and put the main floor walls inside together.  (Just taped, not permanently put in place)  So with the exception of one wall which I have to trim by 1/2" it all fits.  Boy, do I feel better.

 
                    Kitchen                                                        From kitchen looking into dining room

             
                 Looking into living room and den                Looking from dining room 

So, overall, I'm okay with the fit of the outside walls.  I am going to start cutting out my exterior doors and windows from my outside walls.  Actually I'm hoping to talk my husband into doing that but only because I have very little use of my hand right now.  

My next step will be to put all the windows in (all 19 of them) and the three doors. Then I can put the wallpaper up on the inside of the outside walls. 

Oh dear, I think I'm confusing myself.  Hopefully you know what I mean.

  1. Looking great, Louise but I don't know why you were worried after using the "fly by the seat of your pants" method. It's just so much more fun!!!! *smile* - Marilyn D., New Brunswick, Canada
