While deciding what to do with the French House, I thought that I would try my hand at making something a little smaller. I wanted to create something along the lines of Mercedes little Shabby House on her blog http://www.libertybiberty.blogspot.com/
The design is loosely based on the cutest little studio created by Sandy Foster - she turned a little Catskills hunting lodge into a shabby studio. When I first discovered Sandy's blog, I was more interested in creating a copy of her shelving unit and book case, which is fabulous - I was wondering if there was a way to incorporate it into my French House.......
Anyway, below are a few "work in prgress" photo's of the basic structure - mdf carcass, with some scrap balsa wood for the siding - I've kept everything a bit wonky deliberately, as I want the wee house to look as if it has been put together using what was available.

Hi Liesl
ReplyDeleteYou have been so busy. I absolutely love everything you have made. You are so talented - I certainly couldn't build from scratch like you do. There is no way I would guess any of it is cardboard - beautiful! The sofa, the cupboard the coffee table in fact all of it. Also this new project is going to be gorgeous - I just love shabby chic. I cannot wait to see where it goes from here.
