I'm a Giant Update

Things are really coming along well with the iMac dollhouse. Here is the shell of the home. I think this will be more of a roombox with just a main living space OR perhaps something like a studio apartment. We'll see what happens when I start placing furniture in there.

Here is the template for the floor. We (well, Mr. Lemon) cut some dowel rods so that the final floor (foam core) will just rest on top of these supports. That way I can take it apart to store it in our super small house and also change out the flooring. We've had to hack quite a bit of the inside of the iMac away to make it work but I'm so happy that this will be a reusable space.

I've been adding away to the Pinterest mood board so check it out. I also spent the day making Billy Ball flowers out of air-dry clay and wire. I ended up making some that are really too big so someone lucky who loves the 1:6 may win out. I have to wait until they fully dry to paint and flock.

Wow, what a great idea! You really know how to think outside the box! I can't wait to see how it turns out.

I truly adore this concept, it really takes me back to when I was a little girl furnishing my large, empty dollhouse with tables made out of piazza box lid supports and scraps of fabric. I can't wait to see what you create!

Wow, this is a crazy idea. I had one of those imacs when they came out! Can't wait to see what you end up with here.
