Gift Collage House

Take two pieces of foamcore, put slots in the middle of each piece and set one atop the other in the slot space.  You have four rooms.  Decorate with printies, scrapbook paper, magazine photos and catalog photos.  This is a bedroom.  It has been collaged quite a bit. 

This is a guestroom/hobby room.  Still needs a rug and some items for the shelf on the left.

Sharing The Holiday With Good Friends

A FRIENDS THANKSGIVING DAY

                                                   

HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2011

Made all the food, painted the furniture, cut out  the placemats, printed the paintings and mounted them on backgrounds, printed the china, papered the diorama and created the flooring.

Getting Ready For Thanksgiving

What's Your Kitchen Wearing This Fall?

Fall Comes To My Livingroom

Living/Dining Room Dylan House

Painting by de Stael.  I made the Nogucci table and the blue rug.

Brinca Dada Dylan House

Just put this house together.  Don't ask.  I like the design however, the open space.  Looking forward to trying some modern room designs.

Better With Sisal Rug

This room is a work in progress.  Added a sisal rug which I think unifies the room better.  Still needs some accessories, but not too much.

Tiny Bedroom In The Beach House

This is the tiny bedroom in the house.  I made the paneling, sliding glass door, floor pillow, and added the sculpture.  I THINK EVERYBODY SHOULD LIKE EVERYBODY silkscreen by Andy Warhol.

Saying Goodbye To Summer From The Beach House

Made the sliding glass door and installed in the tiny upstairs bedroom.  It really slides!

This is the kitchen.  Made the paneling, the modern dishes, the rug, the stove, and painted the Chrysnbon pots and pans orange.

Installing Sliding Glass Door On The Beach House

Had to use a hair dryer to get this glued wall off the house frame on the upstairs bedroom.  First time I've done that, but it worked great.  Then, I measured for a 6"X6" sliding glass door and cut out the opening.  Next, I took U-shaped trim and mitered the sides and glued so that the opening faces the inside of the door so I can insert the "glass."  I'd like to find some nice thick clear plastic for the glass doors.

Dollorama Goes Modern

Whose house will this be?  This new house is on the beach and will take a turn toward the modern.

Corrine Knows Everybody In Town

Hi Ladies and welcome to the Peacock Tea and Coffee House.  We used to be just tea and coffee and some good pastry, but now we serve sandwiches and salads as well and in the winter we serve good homemade soups too.  By the way, my name is Corrine.

Hi Corrine, I'm Grace and this is Sam.  Are you the owner?

Oh no, I do run it, but it's owned by Ivana.  She comes around often enough. I never know when she's coming, she just waltzes in.

Grace and Samantha Discover the Peacock Tea and Coffee House

"Look at this!  The Peacock Tea and Coffee House.  Looks like the locals come here to catch up on the latest news and gossip..  You ready for a Chocolatta Latte?  I think I'll see if they have a Raspberry Iced Latte.  Let's go in."

Going For A Walk On The Beach

  This is Lexi.  She lives here at the beach and comes walking here most mornings, even in cold weather. 

    Grace and Samantha are best friends.  They're having a beautiful walk along the beach.  They've come here for the week-end.   They like it here so much, they're talking about moving out of their apartments in the city and buying homes here.
