Cool beans Howard. I'm not much on the American made houses but you sure do add a wonderful dimension to your interpretations. Tell me the story please about the front door...

Thank you Howard, I knew that part I've just never seen this design before on any of the originals so I was wondering if this is a new design?

The door, large window at the bottom of the tower and the two side windows are scans of the ones that were in the church that Lynn rescued. The vintage original did not have a round window above the door but I thought the space could use one. the round window I uses was also one Lynn scanned from another dolly church.

Here is my version of the latest Dolly church. The original windows and doors were in great shape so it made reproducing them relevantly easier to make. Having the original I could see the mica was really fine more like a dust than the flakes I used. I really like the dust but choose the Flakes to match my other Dollys. Thanks Howard for making the pattern.
