House lit up


The Farmhouse by Dura-Craft!

This eight room country classic farmhouse features a sweeping porch with curved steps.  I strayed away from the directions and bricked the steps.  The working double hung windows and front door are silk screened.  The foundation and chimney are detailed brickwork featuring two electrified marble fireplaces.  The first floor and porch is hand laid single strip hard wood flooring which took my kids and I seven hours to complete.  The roof is covered with individually glued split redwood shakes along with gutters and downspouts.  The exterior is tongue and groove clapboard siding finished with a custom blue latex paint.
 
Its kind of dark due to taking the picture at night with no lights on in the room.  These miniature lights do so much to enhance the appearance!  It was quite a job electrifying the house.  I used special two conductor copper tape throughout the house and it is powered with a hefty 20 watt transformer capable of running 33 lights.  I have designed the tour of my dollhouse pages to display the outside then  inside.
