almost ready
Monday, April 09, 2012
I wanted to finish the give-away yesterday since the Spring Fling 2012 contest kit I bought is going to arrive today. I almost got it done. When I reached the point where I was tired and my hands were cramped I knew to quit...because working beyond that point is when silly mistakes happen.
It's nice working in 1:12...I can pick up and manipulate the leaves with my fingers instead of with tweezers :)
I shall finish the plants tonight and post the give-away announcement...then I will have to 'run silent' for a while as I work on the Spring Fling. The deadline for the contest is September third, but I don't expect I'll need that long to get it done because what I have planned is simple and I already have the furniture. It is nice to have more time this year, I can pay more attention to detail when I'm not rushed. Plus, an artistic friend of mine, a dollhouse newbie, also purchased the Spring Fling kit...she warned me she may show up at my house on weekends needing help...I told her to come over any time.
If I guess who the newbie is, will you tell me??
Does her name start with... an "M"??
You don't really have to say.
And those plants, even at 1:12, would make me insane!

No, it's not Melinda...it's Bessie.

Radio silence....I hear ya on that. :D But, like you I don't think I'll be as rushed this time around. I have a plan and though I don't have furniture, I think it's all workable in the longer timeframe. So, I might work on a public project and a secret project all at the same time...maybe...haha!

Bessie knows we'll want to see what she's making too, right?

She's going to enter the contest, so you won't see hers until it's done either. I'll make her let me post pictures here after the deadline :)

You need MORE detail then you had last year?!?! I think you pay wonderful attention to detail, Keli.
And yea for you working in 1:12!
