Contest submission time!

Tomorrow is the deadline for the Creatin' Contest 2016.  We were so fortunate to see they added an online submission form since it makes everything easier!

Our Crafty Cottage was mostly done for quite awhile except for the roof!  Within the last month or so, we worked on using wood shingles from another dollhouse we made (but didn't use the shingles) and painstakingly hot glued them on. Then we found a nice wood stain to put on it.  Here is the cottage with stained roof.

Today we submitted the following pictures for our Creatin' Contest entry:

I'd also like to share these other photos that provide a good view of the exterior as well:

It was a fun project and we know we'll receive at least a small "thanks for entering" prize.  We enjoyed working on it together and please join us again for other crafty projects.

Let There be Light!

One of the neatest additions to our Crafty Cottage was the find of an LED button battery powered light for the inside.  We loved that we just had to attach a self-adhesive magnet to the ceiling beam where we can easy add the light.  It has a little light switch and the battery will be easy to change when needed.  All crafters need excellent lighting!
