They are looking really good already. I tried to re-create a carved shelve (Indian style) with lace but after spray painting, you can see the fray of the lace fiber in photographs. lol<br /><br />The other thing I am having a painful time with is working on the house without a proper table. I simply do not have the space for a separate table. Did you specially make a turn table (by the way, can you show a pic of that, if it is not too inconvenient?) I bought lazy Susans which is good for the smaller houses but not the intermediate ones.<br /><br />I love watching your progress :).Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1115922857692314288.post-8715270356461175472010-03-01T22:21:15.662-08:002010-03-01T22:21:15.662-08:00Hello Debie, I'm having fun with it,just wish ...Hello Debie, I'm having fun with it,just wish I had more time to play !<br /><br />Hello Michelle, thank you !

I will know if this has worked once the glue dries so fingers crossed.<br />This may take some time LOL<br />julie xxxjulie campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16902081962358238140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1115922857692314288.post-22816060581439559142010-02-26T10:27:55.137-08:002010-02-26T10:27:55.137-08:00This is looking simply marvellous!

I love it to bits and the 'finds' are quite wonderful too! :o) I can't wait to see how you do the orangery....don't forget to sand the doors 'before' you glue it together! lol The glue supplied was wonderfully strong and stuck fast in no time. Methinks it was wood glue and far superior to PVA. You probably received the same good glue with the shop. :o)<br /><br />Lots and lots of good luck at the fair! :o)<br /><br />Michelle xxxxMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15844807744316681870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1115922857692314288.post-87431718589236935282010-02-26T07:41:50.602-08:002010-02-26T07:41:50.602-08:00Its great when you find a bargain eh? :o) how did ...Its great when you find a bargain eh? :o) how did you lay your parquet flooring Julie?
