I have been busy making another nutshell cottage. Cutting the braces for the roof (over the front door) was a bit tricky. They are about 6 mm long and had to have a 45 degree angle cut on both ends.
This house will have a furnished bedroom on the second floor. Visible through the octagon 360 degree surround windows. Just one problem... I am totally out of acorn caps in all sizes.
While I wait for supplies to fall, I thought I would make some stick pins using the front entrance of this cottage design. They will be just over one inch tall. I thought it would be fun to wear on the lapel of a wool jacket with jeans.
Very very nice.

Hope those acorns start falling soon so we can see more. Your tiny house is so cute, I think it makes a superb brooch!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be wonderful if we could shrink down enough to visit an acorn cottage? I'll bet they would be as sweet to visit as they are to see on your hand.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Vicki.
I love this little cottage! Mini hugs - Lidi

This will be yet another adorable nuttcottage! I'd love to see how you will do the interior on one of these, very fascinating!
ReplyDeletePitty you have to wait for nature to deliver the supplies when the time is right. But when she delivers, there will probably be enough for a whole year of nuttcottage-makin'!?
Oh Wow Catherine! I can't imagine making something so intricate and tiny! It is just adorable, and I can't wait to see the second floor.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Terri
Wonderful little nutshell cottage ( I wrote nut house first, but that sounded just wrong!). I love the porch on it, such lovely detail. It is a bit early for wool jackets, but it is a great idea to make it into a brooch!
ReplyDeleteI totally missed your post on the give away, what a beautiful gift!
Hello Catherine!
ReplyDeleteOnce again your imagination and creative ability amaze me! I am in total awe of any artist who can do such tiny perfection....
Look forward to seeing the finished piece.
