| Dragon's Eye |
I am not getting much done on my house as you can see. I had some sales last week so had to get them packed up and mailed off. I was going to do wood flooring but changed my mind as I had a bunch of egg cartons so I will do some wood and some stone. I put a big dragon eye on one of the oval windows and glued some vintage glass jewels on the shutters, I have more window plans so I am not done. The floors in the kitchen and the Dragon room (yes I said dragon room) are stones cut from egg carton, painted black and high lighted with brown, gray, green and tan to look like stone. I will seal them with a matte sealer after it drys overnight. Next I will stone the small room and put some trim and base board in the completed rooms. I hope the weather is better in your part of the world than here, snow and freezing temps here.

Love the work you've done!!! You go really fast!! I am impressed! If you were working on my Addams house I am sure you'd of finished it a year ago - lol!! -ara
ReplyDeleteYou call THAT "not getting much done"??? Well, you said that, I would call that quite a progress... ;O) That dragon eye window is a fantastic idea, and the floor looks great. Unbelievable you've made it from an egg carton - or maybe ours in Germany are different from the US-versions...
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see more of you while not getting much done!
Greetings

ReplyDeleteAra, I think I have more time on my hands than you do. This is my slow time of year.
Birgit, The egg cartons are all different here, depends on the brand of eggs you get.
Thank you Daydreamer. I have thought about the things I wanted in this house for a long time, a whole note book full infact :)
Marvelous work, my friend. Love watching this take shape.

Looks wonderful and I love the egg carton look, thinking of using it for stone walls on Emilys Merlin castle but it may cost me an arm and a leg in eggs lol! Looks very effective. Bet your pleased Nicky is back making dragons ! Kate xxx

besitos ascension
Thank you everyone!
ReplyDeleteKate have everyone you know save egg cartons for you. I am so happy Nicky is making dragons, I bought 2 from her on Sunday.
Thank you Ewa. I don't have very many dragons yet. One special dragon will make this the dragon room.
ReplyDeleteSans! this is my slow time of year so I have more time to work on minis.
Thank you Julia, I am enjoying your witches cottage as you and Hywell work on it.
Ascension, I love dragons :)
I love the window with the eye, that's soooo different! The floors are fantastic and you would never guess it was card!!! Amazing look overall. :o))
ReplyDeleteI know egg cartons and cereal box card make great covering for both floors and walls (you need to sand cereal box card with sand paper to give it texture). I plan on trying card for my new projects.

I love the house, it looks great! What a wonderful idea to put that eye in the window!
ReplyDeleteI just saw the Lord of the Ring movies again and it reminds me of the eye of Sauron! I hope this eye isn't as evil ;-)
OH MY!, I love what you are doing to your house. That eye window is fabulous. I love watching your progress. Thanks for sharing with us.
