Happy belated new year!

The holidays were super busy and great, there was no time to post. I finished my niece's and nephew's stockings on Christmas Eve. Talk about cutting it close! They were a hit. My three year old nephew hugged his and was showing anyone who'd look his new stocking. That was the best reward for the rush. Now I have 16 more to do before this year's Christmas for family members.
As far as minis I haven't had much time to work on them but I did get some little mini kits for Christmas. One thing I received that i was excited about was a quarter scale fireplace tool set. I glues it in place in the Pickett Hill. They are so tiny and in scale they are hard to see. I also worked some on my Pickett hill kitchen and it is half finished.
Since I am so close to completion on this one I have been going through my other quarter scale kits trying to decide which one to do next. Last night I happened upon to estate sale Debbie Young kits, main street four square and a Dutch colonial. I hadn't ever seen them before and for the price to hard to pass up. I speed bid on them lol. The person selling was pretty sure everything is there. Hopefully they are right. They are super cute. The interior staircases sold me on them. I love stairs in dollhouses and Debbie Young designs are so detailed.

  3. I wish I could take credit for the elegance but it is the kit makers amazing work, I'm just good at following instructions. : ) I did give up on the door knobs of the kitchen, they were supposed to be cut from tiny pins but hey kept flying away or disappearing so I used little sticker beads instead with extra glue.
