It's all glued up now -- lots still to do on these rooms, but the structure is done! I added the wall between the dining room and hallway, glued and taped it in place and let it set. Then I glued the stairway unit in place (after doing some last minute patching on the tile floor -- needed to add a couple of tiles because my initial pattern was not perfect). Then I glued the final interior wall in place and taped everything snug.
Here's the dining room as it stands today:
Here's the hallway. I love the clock here (it's the House of Miniatures William and Mary clock kit that Eva put together beautifully), and I am still in love with the Masters Miniatures Charles II side chair. I think it's one of the most pleasing miniature things I own :)
And here's the Parlour:
Here's a close up of the fireplace and overmantle: I had to use a couple of coats of white paint on the overmantle until it was white enough to match the plaster fireplace :) It was sort of ivory to begin with ...
Now it all starts over again, but this time for the first floor!
