Lilly Sweetbriar's House of Sweets Updated
Lilly Sweetbriar is the oldest resident in town...she's been there as long as anyone can remember. Everyone just loves her baked goods, so she decided to open her House of Sweets. The tourist children flock to her store to sample the delights! It's a real pitty that every summer, at least child ends up missing....you know, parents really watch their children around the ocean!

DuraCraft San Franciscan-Home of Nicole Vueve Noire Updated
My San Franciscan is the home of a lovely young lady, Nicole...her wealthy husbands have a habit of "leaving town" ... and leaving Nicole their fortunes.
I got the idea from the story of Belle Gunness--who lived in my town in the early 1900's--she is said to be the first female serial killer--corresponding with men through the mail, marrying them...soon they disappeared and Belle ended up with their $$. The last name I chose "Vueve Noire" means "black widow" in French...for that's exactly what Nicole is...hehe

HBS 2010 Contest Updated
Madame LaRu's Le Petit Charcuterie!
Bonjour! Welcome to my take on a Country French Charcuterie. My original idea was an old fashioned butcher shop, but while researching, I discovered the French art of charcuterie. Charuterie was developed as a way to "keep" meat/pork before refrigeration. Make sure you get a sample of Jacques fresh terrine or galantine!

The Willowcrest--Girls Boarding school Updated
When it's finished, the Willowcrest will be an exclusive girls boarding school--no name yet--It will be a while in the making because I still have to finish my HBS project and the BH! I really started this house because the box was so large and cumbersome, and I needed the space.lol

'09 Garden Party Gazebo Contest"Someday My Prince W Updated
I was really excited by this contest--I 'brainstormed' this idea from my 11 yr old daughter's creation of a little "glass" box --she used some of the left over plastic sheet that I used for Lily's Sweetshop display case. It made me think "glass coffin"...then Snow White--and this nightime scene under a canopy of trees was born... I call this " Someday My Prince Will Come"

My '09 Fling-Kit & Company--an "Oasis" Updated
1850--Catherine Barrington Rockafeller, AKA Kit, has followed her husband, Michael Rockefeller out west to find his fortune in the Gold Rush. (Michael is a distant relative of THE Rockafellers) Catherine's father, who cannot deny his daughter a thing, especially since she married a man who cannot really support her in the manner in which she is accustomed. "Kit" needs something to do while counting the days til they can return to Boston. She has decided she wants to open a little salloon--but with a little classier atmosphere...she calls it an Oasis since it's in the small town of Coloma, pretty much in the middle of nowhere...She has convinced her cousin,Angelique to make the perilous journey west to be the "Star of the Show". Kit will make limited appearances...So follow me to see "Kit and Company!

2011 Spring Fling-Sir Vincent's Hunting Lodge Updated
When I first saw the Fling, I thought of a Tudor style building, but couldn't think of something unique--but once I dryfitted the additions with the main build, a lightbulb went off and I decided to make this hunting lodge a tribute to my husband Vince who works so hard for our family and rarely complains that he can't eat at the dining room table during SF season or that the house is a mess...what a guy;)

Natalie's Laurel Updated
DD Natalie is working on her first house--We picked the Laurel because I thought it would be large enough to put in all the furniture she wanted, yet not too complicated that I would be the one doing all the building. I'd say it's kind of like an eclectic farmhouse,lol Sure hope she wants to build a Primrose that we can attach to it :)

Cammie's Travel Trailer--A psychedelic girls club house& Updated
While her sister is working on the Laurel, Cammie wanted a project of her own. Although she started with the painting, she decided it's much more fun to "play" with the furniture and accessories :) The story behind the house is that little Kelly spends the summers at her grandparents farm. They have transformed their old travel trailer into a girls club house. Can you tell her grandparents were from the 60's??
