Paper Sailboat

 Remember the bathtub I made for the Gypsy Trailer? I told you I knew what to do with it! It's a Dream Boat! I listed it in my shop.

This is what it looked like in the trailer. Well I decided to go with another tub. And I knew this one would become a sailboat.

The masts are two old paintbrushes. They are ones I used so much that there was hardly any bristles left! I always keep them because I love the worn look with all the paints . I painted the sail just like the outside of the Gypsy Trailer.

 This is the back.

A little paper clay cupcake at the top for sweet dreams! I just shaped this by hand. No molds here!

These are little fabric roses(see my rose tutorial) on crepe paper ruffles.

 I think it looks better as a sailboat then a bathtub.

Lance's Old Farmhouse Miniature House

This house was commissioned by Karen. She plans to give it to her boss for Christmas.




Karen wanted her boss to have a mini house so he could enjoy it when he couldn't be there.

This was my first basement!



I had to build the railings a little differently on this house. I wanted to make sure it would withstand shipping with no problems. So instead of fastening in the middle of the posts, I fastened them behind the post. Always have to think of ways to build these tough!

That is a crack that is in the real house's foundation. Gives character!


Love the little vent!
That little light was a fun detail to add. Of course I had to add the screen door. It has screen material to keep out the bugs! It's a little open to show the door behind it.

I'm not sure what that door is for but I made it anyways!
The stones are showing through the concrete. And there is some of the add on cedar deck.

It sure was a lot of fun to make.
