havanaholly Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Minis were definitely my refuge when I was working! Working with your hands to express your inner visions is wonderfully therapeutic. Oh, Brandaen, I totally love to shingle ever since I learned I could tune out supervisors and nasty backstabbers; my little world may be dark and warped, but it's totally MINE!

iseecerulean Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I should stop in more often, you guys have been busy! Your sneak peek pictures are tantalizing. My SF is coming along nicely The exterior is finished, the interior should be by the end of this weekend...then on to the landscaping, which I expect to be the most time consuming, hardest part. I uploaded a few sneak peek pictures to my gallery. :groucho: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jo Med Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Keli, how mysterious. I can't tell what anything is yet. It does look like leaded windows but maybe that's just a red herring. I'm sort of 80% there with everything , you know 80% of the build done, 80% of the exterior, interior and probably 60% of the accessories but I haven't really started on the landscaping yet. Going to take a few more sneak peek shots later if I can do it without giving everything away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EAB Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 It's almost July and my fling is still in the box. I'm not sure I will get to it in time. I have begun a massive house clean-up, including going through all the closets and every drawer in my house, and now that I'm in the middle of it, I can't quit. Things are sorted in to piles all over my house, and I have visions of just hiring a fork lift. I know it will be soooo much better when it's done, but it will take weeks, yet. Poor little fling. I love you, but I just can't get to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 @ Elizabeth: Keep thinking about the Fling & how you'll go about it so that when your house is ship-shape, you can just tear into the box and get it finished lickety-split. (And when you finish with that, you wanna come visit me for a couple weeks? :lol: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapchap73 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 My Fling is getting out of the box this weekend! On the housecleaning front, I saw a sign that sums it up, for me at least. :lol: "I can't clean because I keep getting distracted by all the cool stuff I find." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Med Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Scratches head and wonders just how long it will be before there's a dollhouse hoarders programme on TV - better sharpen up my game I think. Here are a couple of sneak peeks - its getting quite hard now to take pics that don't give a lot away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minis On The Edge Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Jo, A couple of months ago TLC tried again to get someone here to contact them about our CRAZY obsession. I did give them the Boot...again. I'd hate to see someone we know from here made out to look like a fruitcake because we build Dollhouses and are creative. I had to look at your picture a few times. I thought it was a picture of your thumb lol I am viewing this on my phone though ;) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minis On The Edge Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Hey, Holly and her husband made it here unharmed lol. I think somebody must drive ok Brandean, I work so slowly now I would put you to sleep. I work in spurts as I feel the energy now-a-days Jo, I had a storyline when I started building. The outsides changed very much though from how it was going to be. A new owner took over and I just ended up doing everything according to how I was feeling at that moment. I am really liking it though and feel it's turning out the way it should be ;) (I hope) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandan Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 You would never bore me, I might annoy you....lol too many questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minis On The Edge Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 LOL I don't mind questions ;) The best way to answer though is to put some clay in people hands and let them work with it. Most times, the answers answer themselves once the clay is opened and the creative juices starts flowing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
