The Works Wooden House Revised

Sorry, only one post this week ......... I am completely out of ideas!!!!!!

Remember this Works little, wooden house drawer (below) that I wasn’t 100% with last week, thinking the bird and branches on the front and back looked a little out of proportion ……

…… well, I’ve had a little play and this is what I eventually came up with ……

I managed to remove the bird etc. pretty easily and after a bit of sanding to remove all the glue I replaced them with three butterflies on the front with a little foliage, to which I think I may also add some really tiny fimo flowers and then another three butterflies on the back……….

I think the proportions look much better now and the butterflies and space make the house feel fresher. This was a one off experiment but I reckon either Iris and Bertie will lay claims to it over the Easter holiday.

As I have a few more of the drawers squirrelled away I’ll be playing again, thinking perhaps a gingerbread house next time, we shall see……..

I think the butterflies look great. The house now definitely has a spring look to it. I'm looking forward to seeing the gingerbread house.
