(What a talented husband!) The daffodils are so far away in this part of the world... but it is lovely to see a pot of them that came in from your front room! The delicate light really speaks of those Northern Winters.... and that settee looks so at home, I thought it had always been there! Thank you for the cinnamon buns and tea... my favorite kind of snack! It is a pleasure to visit this house! I am enjoying this project immensely! :):)Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577038531867279085.post-44182363537305033372019-01-18T09:53:50.431-08:002019-01-18T09:53:50.431-08:00Thank you Brandy.

I am beginning to think it may be a bit elaborate for the room. I am pleased with the little settee as it was easy to make. <br />Janineminwkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08487584020742239991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577038531867279085.post-70681039101622740382019-01-18T09:47:39.368-08:002019-01-18T09:47:39.368-08:00You are right Elizabeth.

Perhaps when we go to the Seattle Show this year. <br />Always have fun when I visit you and great to see the amazing progress on the third floor of Villa Leone. <br />J.<br />PS Yesterday I could not leave replies - today I can.

It was a very simple technique that I am sure other miniaturists could develop and improve. <br />Take care.

I wish I could create a pattern of a sweater etc. However I did enjoy practicing by making a plain knit rug for the little settee. <br />Elizabeth made the cinnamon buns and I think they are perfect. <br />Take care. <br />Janineminwkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08487584020742239991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577038531867279085.post-89997803563454287212019-01-18T09:31:22.787-08:002019-01-18T09:31:22.787-08:00Hi Genevieve,

Well, you know that a miniature scene is never quite finished. <br />Hope Spring is beginning to appear in your area. <br />Regards Janineminwkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08487584020742239991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577038531867279085.post-41395033622713823862019-01-18T02:47:29.033-08:002019-01-18T02:47:29.033-08:00Great room!!!

I like very much the colours and all the details, like what you put on the table next to the settee, the daffodils and all books make a gorgeous display. The settee is perfect, this is where I would like to be next to the warmth of the fire. Your husband's clock is just right for this house.<br />Genevièveminiacollectionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06388202585373837152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577038531867279085.post-80438769366708243822019-01-17T09:06:08.229-08:002019-01-17T09:06:08.229-08:00Hello, Janine - This very lovely room is so warm a...Hello, Janine - This very lovely room is so warm and welcoming - just the place to spend a snowy afternoon by the fire! The little settee fits so well in its cozy corner, and your knitted blanket is the perfect addition for a lazy nap. I'm very partial to the beautiful white tea table, and the cinnamon buns make it even better! The clock that your husband made is just wonderful and fits in so well with all the other things in the room. What a perfect gift! I'm looking forward to the pleasure of seeing the bedroom next.<br />Marjorie<br />Marjorie Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12104669798186181705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577038531867279085.post-39779901946603852362019-01-16T21:07:00.250-08:002019-01-16T21:07:00.250-08:00Adding the settee really shows how deep and spacio...Adding the settee really shows how deep and spacious the room actually is! I wouldn't mind a nice nap there, myself! I love the coordinating cushions with the rug! Would love to see a close up photo - it looks cozy and wonderful!<br />If you don't mind, I'd like to send my husband Russ up to spend a little time with Bruce. I'm hoping Bruce's skill and interest in miniatures might rub off on him! My full force interest in football hasn't had the reciprocal effect I was hoping for! :O)<br />Can't wait to see what you have planned in the bedroom!<br />Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577038531867279085.post-24436184404235234052019-01-16T16:41:30.676-08:002019-01-16T16:41:30.676-08:00"Trusty Man" did an Outstanding job on m..."Trusty Man" did an Outstanding job on making your clock Janine and the entire room with the new little bench/bed in the corner feels Peaceful and Serene. I think though that your fully stocked bar table under the stairs is only lacking a bottle of Vodka and/or Aquavit . <br />Lovely seeing the reflection of the chandelier in the glass AND the graphic red traveling up the side of the stairs which makes a wonderful counterpoint to the cool blue-grey tones featured throughout the room♥️<br /><br />elizabeth<br />p.s .
