Found a bed .....and made a house

Searching for the flowers I found a bed ......didnt find the flowers though

This bed I had made a while ago using a 1inch thick MDF cut to size added some white card around the sides and cut out the headboard with my scrollsaw from Balsa

I thought I will make some linens well I have made the mattress using card and batting covered with sheeting and the top sheet

Still thinking about using  this pretty mauve fabric for the quilt!


then I saw Kathryn Krieger's latest Video on making a Christmas cottage and that was the end of that other idea ! lol

This is all I have done so far its actually for a photo album but Im making it to put a candle in it for my Christmas table display tomorrow I will make the roof section I ran out of time today!

 7" x 3 1/2" base
5" x 7" walls 
cute windows all made from Paper and Card~!

I will try to finish it tomorrow after I have polished my car! Some days one has to tackle the real world stuff!!

  2. Look forward to seeing more of you Christmas cottage and the bed! You make me feel gulty, my poor car doesn't know what polish is, perhaps I should knuckle down and do that too, hehe.
