Buttercup: Thanks for looking!

ooooooooo love it!!

I love the siding. I wanted to do siding on mine too but I'm not sure how difficult it is, and this is only my first house. I realllly don't want it to look bad and I think I would have trouble making trim to cover the corners, and cutting the siding to fit around the windows and everything.

This is such a cute little house.

Thanks, Sam! The siding was a bit tedious to fit around the windows-- snip and fit, snip and fit, that sort of thing. With the exception of my first house the Lily, I have glued the window frames on after the siding was installed, which I much prefer to do, but with this little house the window trim seemed too thin and frail to do this very well so I bit the bullet and installed them first.

The vertical siding on the corners was easy-peasy: I keep a stock of balsa and basswood around and cut my trim strips from it. I give them a coat of paint and sand before installing with masking tape to brace them against each other; I don't worry about little gaps because after the strips are set, I spackle them down, sand again, and add another coat of paint over the main face.
