Minis On The Edge Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I completed this a few weeks ago and am just now getting around to adding pictures here. I changed the porch a little and made a climbing rose bush and I added a Wisteria vine to the porch on this one. I had a lot of fun doing this and it is the most requested house from my customers (I have made 7 of these now but only 4 with the clay). I always have fun trying to see what I can do different each time because I get bored easily so using the same kit, I have to do something to make the current one different from the previous ones. I have one more order to make this kit this year (Not due until September) so I am already writing down what I will change on that one Do you all have any ideas? I can't add a extra space or anything like that (It's already paid for). Here are pictures of the latest. I'll add some to the gallery later on: Here is a gallery with pictures of it too: http://gallery.mac.com/toppdollar#100426 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little House fan Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Lovely as always! Detailed and delightful! How about a porch that spans the entire front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what2craftnow Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 It's just stunning Tracy!! I really, really LOVE this one! The wisteria is gorgeous. The recipient is so lucky!!! Don't know if this is feasible, but how about a little stone wishing well in one of the front corners on the Sept. one? Not sure there is room enough, but might be cute. Your houses are so charming as is- you surely don't need advice from me :lol: Thanks for sharing the pics - fabulous eye-candy!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minis On The Edge Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 I Like both of those ideas (The extended porch & wishing well)!! I am writing them down & Thank you Karin, Diana, Chris, Linda & Caroline for your kind words!! They really are an encourage to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesterfieldzoo Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I really really like the stone work and color of this one. And the roof is great! For a future one, how about enclosing the whole front porch, like the buttercup? I like the idea of making a bigger porch. How about the porch going to one side and and the fountain on the other side? Steps off to the side instead of down the front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanaholly Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 What about flower boxes under the downstairs windows? Benches, especially if you do the porch across the entire front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherry Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Beautiful as always! Please, please, a larger photo of the wisteria. I will start making my vine on the puzzle house this weekend (hopefully) and would love to see how you've made yours. I have a rough idea of how to build one, but not sure!

havanaholly Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 A wisteria tutorial would also be nice. For a bit of realism, a wee birds' nest in the gable trim? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
