Miniature living continued...

 I finished the living room walls in my little fixer upper..

Paint looked terrible because there were just too many dings and bumps

in the old walls. Wallpaper ain't my thang..

So barnboard it is!

I had some difficulty with securing the boards..

the wood clapboard is so thin it curls when you apply paint and glue,

both necessary items.

So here it is...

 the look is shabby beachy old farmhouse.. sort of.

I used driveway gravel for the fireplace.

Hey, a mason I am not.

The house came fully wired, but none of it worked anymore.

All wires were embedded in ways that would rip the house apart if I tried.

So I snipped away what was visible...

and found LED battery operated lighting.

So far just two sconces, because this stuff ain't cheap.

I think I paid $20. for each sconce.  sheesh.

Below are a few things I'm coveting on etsy.. a Mecca for mini furniture and supplies, by the way..

Approximately $100 for this set.

I'm not doing it, but oh, how lovely it all is...

This chair is already sold, wish I were sew handy.

And I can dream about this pot rack all day long,

but at $153., it's not an option.

But oh, how adorable it would look in my little country kitchen.

A person could get a little crazy diving in the world of miniatures, don't ya know.
