Electrifying, floors, etc
Yay, got the lights in the post. I installed them into the dollhouse and plugged them in and they all went dark. :yes: After help from the lovely people on the Greenleaf forum we decided that it was the transformer that was a dud. Haven't made it to the shops yet to see if I can exchange it.
However as I could put the lights in, it meant that I could also finish the flooring. Originally I had thoguht to glue the last floor boards down, but then realised how difficult it would be to access the wires should something go wrong in the future. So I used double sided tape and stuck the boards down with that.
I could then also staine the floors. The dark redish colour on the middle floor looks great I think, and the colours upstairs and downstairs also look nice.
Along with the lights came tacky wax, so I could put the front on temporarily and position the moulding. Next is finish placing the wiring and then glueing! :wub:
These are the top floor lights. they all came with chains attached, but were hanging so far down that I removed the chains. I used the left over chains to extend the stairwell light so that it would hang down to the floor and light the stairs there.
This is a picture of the kitchen light with the plaster moulding. Again I removed the chain to shorten it.
This is the sitting room chandelier. It is still hanging down quite far, I'm going to wait til I put the furniture in before I decide whether to shorten it.
