looking good Howard.

I think your snow on the roof is looking "snowier"

Are the arched windows homemade or store bought.

steve...

the windows were "store bought"...i call them "church windows"...i think i got them years ago from ted but never got around to using them until now...i'm pretty sure you can get them from pete ...go here...look for the number "CEL-4"...that's the size i used on this house...

the round attic window is just a piece of red acetate...

the snow on the roof is "snow-tex"...i've been using the product for several years now...this coating must be heavier and look "snowier" than usual...

my very best regards...howard...

I really like this little house. It is simple and elegant - a wonderful addition to the pack o' fun collection.

Perfect tribute the original. Love the grey and pink together. I never really thought about that color combo, and when I bought my house, my whole living room was grey with pink trim. :)
