So, after a year plus of a "quick build", it is finally finished. Since being furloughed because of Covid, I had the time to finish up the cottage. It was a fun build and I am proud of the way it turned out. My sister was visiting last week from Missouri, and when she saw it, she fell in love with it. She is not one for miniatures, but all she could do was stare at it and look at all the details. I knew then she had to bring it home with her. I really had no place for it. It was a labor of love, so who better to give it to!

This will be the kitchen area. The floor was a 16 hr project, but I like the way it turned out.- 10 comments

Day one...love the "select" wood -
Last night I started punching out pieces for my Vineyard! (The Primrose part of my bash is all glued together and joined to the back wall of the Vineyard already. I cut two sets of doorways to allow entry into the side addition. I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this... Eek! So many warnings about following the directions, but I can't follow them exactly because of the fact I'm bashing them together. But it is FUN!

Hi all! After a long period of not being able to work on anything miniature, I'm BACK! I'm happily working away on trying to assemble my Vineyard Cottage/Primrose bash and was just wondering why more people don't build this cute little house? (I personally picked it for sentimental reasons.) I have found that it is a bit complicated, what with all the gingerbread and the funny split tab joint for the front wall, but still. Is it because it is small? Does anyone have any Vineyard stories, suggestions, or opinions? Also, I noticed that mine came with splits in some of the pieces that had been filled with wood filler and that some of the sides are made of a different color of wood. (I bought it "new" on Amazon.) Is that normal? I love it, despite its imperfections. http://www.greenleafdollhouses.com/forum/index.php?/gallery/album/5113-/

Hi everyone! I've been working on my Vineyard/Primrose bash today, specifically, I'm working on extending the 2nd floor loft, so that it will become a full floor and connect with the Primrose 2nd floor. I drew up a rough layout of what I'm trying to accomplish. It isn't to scale and doesn't show the Primrose to the left or the Vineyard Balcony to the right. However, I think it shows what I'm trying to do fairly well. I actually rough cut the new floor piece already, wrestling with my bandsaw and my inability to cut straight. Finally, I stood back to admire my handiwork. I'd been cutting from the reverse side of the wood and when I flipped it over, I realized that the top side of the wood I was using has a rather large split. I coulda kicked myself! Now, I've stopped for food and inspiration, as well as the courage to cut out the floor AGAIN from a new piece of wood. Does anyone see any possible problems in my design? I'm not much of a carpenter.
