"little glitter house" version of early 1950's home...

Post by Howard »

greetings to all...

here are a couple of pictures of a project that i recently completed...the actual home is located in the great lakes area...

the base measures about 8 1/2" wide x 9 1/2" deep...overall height, including the base, is about 5 1/2"...i worked from around a dozen or so photos the client sent along with both google and bing satellite views...

(i have also completed another very similar 1950's era home for another client...but will not be able to post the pictures until late october)...

my very best regards...

howard...here in sunny, hot and humid north florida...
