GORGEOUS, Birdie... Simply stunning.

That beach is indeed perfect! And the "sidewalk too", like portuguese one...

Thank you Tahra  :)

This is a picture of the curtains I made. Since I lost the curtain rods as well, I searched the cupboards and came up with... matches. Apparently, the tip of a match fits neatly in the hole, so I used two matches (cut short) attached together with a piece of wire.
I know the orginal rods look way better, but I don't have a clue where to find those. This works, though  :P

That's really awesome!

The "natural stuff" brings an enormous amount of "realism" to any scene... That grass think looks perfect as well, very good hunt!

The items you bought from the store really bring out the scene.  Well done!

Everything is looking wonderful. That tile paper really is perfect.
I really will have to get that sunporch then, it fit's in just right. I will have to rethink my remodel plans for that building now.
Can the sunporch side wall be switched to the other end so it can go on the other side of the building I wonder?

Is the paper with the sand on it a roll of sandpaper - the kind that's used to sand wood smooth? It looks like a really coarse version of that.
