'The Old Watch House', 'The Sail Loft' and 'Parsley Cottage'




Here are three new houses ready to take to the dolls house fair in Northwich tomorrow. It was a bit of a last minute decision to do the fair so I have spent the past couple of weeks trying to get these houses completed in time. The Old Watch House is 1/12th scale and is based on a cottage in Parkgate, a local village famous for its ice cream shop. The Sail Loft is again 1/12th scale and Parsley Cottage is 1/24th scale, based on a cottage in another local pretty village called Shotwick. I see all these lovely houses when I'm out walking the dog and I get home full of ideas and I just have to build them!

  12. I adore the staircase in the old watch house! I love the character in the house, I`m going start searching thru my old coat pockets and down the back of the sofa for money.... I might have to put my kids on ebay.....
