antiqued cabinets in progress -- with a black soapstone sink |
I wanted to share a little more of what I've been working on. I am just feeling my way around, so I don't have early progress shots. In fact I will work on something, glue it, then realize I shouldn't have glued it yet, pull it apart and do what else I need to do. This is all a learning process, but it's so much fun. :)
another shot with the counter in place |
I must say, I was very overwhelmed by the large empty space that is to be the kitchen. So it's taken me a long time to get motivated, but I knew that if I could just start, I'd be ok. I began by looking at reference photos of real kitchens. But even that was overwhelming! There are so many beautiful ones in so many different styles and colors -- so much to choose from. Oh boy. So while I'm not completely sure how all my rooms are going to flow together, I'm having fun and just creating. I figure this is my "learning house."
On a slightly different note, I want to share with you the generous and thoughtful gift a fellow watercolorist blogger/friend sent me yesterday. How sweet is this!? The book is full of beautiful photos and I'm so excited. Thank you, Carrie Waller!

This is so cool! What is the scale of these pieces?
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you like the book. You are inspiring me to want to work on a miniature project. When I was a kid I got a really nice doll house but we never built it because we moved all the time and it was so big that it couldn't be easily moved (larger than a door frame). So some day I will build a dollhouse.
