Well, I did not get to do anything to my house this weekend because I had a guest since Friday evening. But this is how the house is looking so far
I am very pleased with how this has turned out so far and also with the Chimney. I thought it may not look right but it looks fine to me so far. I edited the trim on the big Dormer because the ones that should be there hid the brick detail so I took the top roof edges and cut those to fit here instead.
I only need to Paint the shingles another brown and maybe add a little green and then add the base and Flowers and then I can say I am finished

Orchid Completed
This house was a really fun build! My houses never feel completed without a Base with trees & flowers and my customers usually expects them of me now. I Think I love the bases myself with flowers because to me, that is what really make my houses look realistic. When I first started using bases (About 10 years ago) I used cardboard because I personally used to love to change them and it was lightweight enough to pick up and have it glued to the house. I then switched to thin wood but had to have the square edges because I don't do power tools. Then I moved on to foam core or builders foam. I tell you this because ALL of theses methods can give you wonderful results. It just depends on what you feel more comfortable using.

Now please note that I had to take pictures while inside my house. It has been raining and storms for the past 2 days so I have not been able to go outside but I am anxious to share this house with you all. Remember to Have fun while you mini!
I dressed the window seat and added a couple of dolls to the scene
Here are the pictures I took when I sold it on eBay back then and this album also features pictures of how my customer Christine Furnished this house Wonderfully!
It was such a rare treat to see the pictures of it furnished because most customers don't send me pictures of how they decorate them. I lost contact with Christine (MLady on Greenleaf forum). If you know her, please send her my way!
