ilovecats Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Hi Tracy, thanks for posting the picture! I LOVE this house. I found it when it was first listed and i keep looking and drooling over it!!!!!!!!! They did such an incredible job on it! It has made me reconsider some of my choices for my Willowcrest, when i build it one of these years she also has some really cool kits up for auction....doubt i can try bidding for one tho :lol: I'm sure they will go for a price that i can't afford at the moment.

havanaholly Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I really like the stone exterior, although I still think the Willowcrest could go in brick with stone quoins (that's what I've been "seeing" when I think about it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missymew Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 What a beautiful house! Isn't that something that the builder loves to build dollhouses, but doesn't collect minatures? I'd always thought that the two went hand in hand. Lovely job. Great starting price. Wonder what it will go for? -Susanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuttiwebgal Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Isn't that something that the builder loves to build dollhouses, but doesn't collect minatures? I thought I was weird! I actually enjoy the challenge of the build more so than filling them up with goodies! I always seem to get bored and move on to the next project! sometime I wish I could make money with them but the joy on the recievers face is always worth so much more than cash! and did yall see his other auctions? an Elizabeth Anne!! and another even more wonderful half scale house with TOWER absolutly wonderful! nutti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjack Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Whoever built this house is incredibly meticulous. I am still building my willowcrest and I can't believe how long it is taking me. For this person to have a bid at $150 must be terribly disappointing as they have hours and hours put into this house. I only hope mine comes out half as good! The other houses they put on ebay are equally as grand. Can't imagine wanting to sell something that was made with so much love and talent.

heidiiiii Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I think it is beautiful too. But I think half the fun of owning the house is putting your blood sweat and tears into it. Then you get to stare and share in your glorious wonderness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 There are a lot of mini collector out there who would rather not build, too (go figure!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minis On The Edge Posted June 11, 2006 Author Share Posted June 11, 2006 Chris, It ain't mine though I must say I feel so inspired to do one though!! It looks so classy!! Holly, your idea sound WONDERFUL too. Brick with Quoins one the corners. I can really visualize that one. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annette Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 It's a beautiful house! I wish I could talk DH into letting me get another one. But I'll just have to keep asking (or should I say bugging) him. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Chris, It ain't mine though I must say I feel so inspired to do one though!! It looks so classy!! It really is a lovely and elegant interpretation of the Willowcrest. The floors are just gorgeous. But my favorite Willowcrest is the one you have in your webshots album Tracy. That one just stuns me every time I look at it. And I go look at it a lot. ;) Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Tracy, especially after you've worked it over with the paperclay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anya Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 The colour is very unusual and the interior is immaculate what a beautiful house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doogster Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Tremendous, very well done. Love the look of the house. Be interesting to see if the price escalates at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanaholly Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 The seller posted her items on the DHM forum this AM, so I invited her to look in on how much we admire her handiwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
