Will It Ever Be Finished?

I took everything out of the kitchen yesterday. There is still a lot of work to do!





I finished the floor, filled in some gaps around the moldings and washed the window. I was going to just touch up the paint on the walls...


Then I realized that the paint color I had mixed a long time ago was all dried up. That's what happens when you start a project and don't finish it for a year or so! LOL

Now I have to repaint the entire room. I'm going to add some "wallpaper" to the ceiling too.

I'm making progress, but am wondering if my little kitchen will ever be finished?!

I started working on the kitchen floor last night. So far I've glued 45 tiles one at a time to the posterboard backing. I still need to do the border.


Here is what the floor will look like in the kitchen. I really like the colors.


I'm also working on the cabinet over the stove. I think it needs some trim or crown molding or something?

As you can see, the doors are STILL not installed under the sink! The hinges are really causing me problems! I may try to make some pin hinges instead? That little sink has been more frustrating than anything else so far!

I started stitching one of Janet Granger's pillow kits yesterday. I've never done anything so tiny before! It's going to be beautiful, IF I can do it? Photo is from Janet's website



Hope you have a wonderful day!

Kitchen Floor Tile

I found this pretty tile design at Villa Lagoon Tile. They make beautiful real cement tile! Go see all of their gorgeous tiles!

I emailed them last year to ask permission to copy this Savona tile design for my dollhouse. They graciously agreed and here it is! I like this tile so much that I've tried to design my entire little kitchen around it. I love the colors!


The real tile comes in several sizes. I think I will use one inch tiles and not try to cut them up so small. I can't cut a straight line to save my life!

I'm still planning and measuring but this is how they might look in the kitchen.


Casey and Sylvia have done lots of tile work with great success! I'm off to see how they do it. :D

Hope you have a beautiful day!

Thanks Lundy for allowing me to use your beautiful tile in my dollhouse! :D
