The tiny shabby streamside studio is coming together seamlessly! I love it.
I made the screen door, trimmed all the windows, painted the porch floor and sculpted the stone foundation.
Here I have the foundation painted and the flower box ready.
I thought I wouldn't be able to get many details inside. But I was able to put curtains on all the windows with the roses on top! The fireplace mantle has the "tin" tile insert. On top I put a rose painting instead of a mirror. The mirror was too bulky.
I made the chandelier with 6 curled pieces of wire. 3 are painted white and 3 have crystals strung on them. The light bulb is in the middle.
I made the roses with cotton fabric. It's just a fold, twist and roll method.
Upstairs also has curtains.
Before I put the roof on, I scored and carved out the plank ceiling and attached the fabric for the ceiling.
I am putting on the shingles one at a tie. I think it gives it such a sweet look.
The porch posts are toothpicks.
This is one of the 3 chandeliers. This is not a working one. It's just to look cute. There's another nonworking chandelier in the loft.
Tomorrow, I might have this little cutie finished. We'll see.
The real Shabby Streamside Studio belongs to Sandy Foster. You can see it on her beautiful blog My Shabby Streamside Studio.
You move me!
