The exterior of Hazel's house is now finished, and the paper mache is drying.
There's only one problem – I hate the roof.
The original plan was to have a roof garden, but to put it simply, I have cats.
(A smorgasbord of delectable plastic plants would be irresistible to my beasts.)
The old roof from Dr Zoe's house has been sitting in my office, and I wondered if it would fit this house. So I tried it.
Here it is from the front,
the back,
and the side - perfect!
Inside you can see that there is a gap at the back, but that can easily be filled in with scrap wood.
I think Fairy Hazel should be happy with the new roof. It will give her some extra storage too!
Cheerio,
Sam
The magic of Roof swapping- SHAZAM it works! :D
ReplyDeleteYou said it - SHAZAM!

ReplyDeleteThanks Sharon.
DeleteI think it's Kismet, and you'll make it look like it was part of the plan all along! You're really making progress now!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jodi. I was actually surprised that it fit.

Thanks Giac.
Deleteit looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa.
DeleteIt's sad somehow that you had to give up your roof garden plans... but your plan B works great too. What a fantastic coincidence that the old roof makes such a great job.

Hi Birgit, yes, it was sad to give up on the roof garden idea but I will keep it for a future doll house that will be kept away from the cats. I am sure I will build a million houses in my lifetime.
DeleteGreat addition Sam! That roof gives the house a lot of style and I love the idea of and attic room, you can really do something with that.
ReplyDeleteKeep it going, I can't wait to see how you finish this one. :)
Big hugs,

Hi Xanadu, thanks. I am actually glad to use the roof on a house. It has been just sitting in my office taking up space!
