Bashing the Cottage

It took me a long time to figure out what to do with this kit. I'd had it for almost a year before I figured out why I couldn't come up with a plan for it - I didn't like the basic design of the house.

With the help of Kelly (rodentraiser on the forum) we changed the front & side of the house & cut off part of the base/porch. Once this was done I had all sorts of inspiration for the cottage.
