LPCullen Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I started this house several weeks ago--building it for a friend's niece. Since I'm off work today, I decided to spend it doing something I wanted to do (and that ain't housework, LOL!). I've got my bucket of acrylic paints out, and I've got paintbrushes all over the table, and I've got minis all over the livingroom floor. It looks great like that--I might leave it that way... Anyhow, here's where I am now with the Sugarplum. Still have to finish painting the brick, have to wallpaper and clean the paint off the floor, and I have to put shingles on the roof. But I'm having fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPCullen Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Thanks everyone! I'm glad you like my chimney and the colors! You have just given me the incentive. I am doing laundry, but that is it, I am going to work on minis. Thanks, I did nothing but minis all day long. Didn't answer my cell phone when clients called, didn't answer any work related emails either. Didn't do any housework. Just played... It was great!
