MY FIRST FINISHED HUTCH
I hope you are all having a chance to make minis. A few weeks ago i posted pictures of some michaels hutches i have it seems that my stash has built up and i now had eleven hutches that needed finishing i already have at least three in my other houses i may re-do at some point but today i made a start on some of the others i actually managed to fill two and paint another two but i only have a picture of one of them i will take more pictures tomorrow but for now heres a picture of the first completed one i did today i kind of like the way its turned out i was so nervous to work on these in case i spoiled them i know i have quite a few but i have plans for all of them and if it went wrong then i wouldnt be able to get any more as their not available in the UK i have been lucky enough to get mine in swaps from the US well anyway enough prattle heres the picture

ReplyDeleteThey are hard to get over here now as well...my store hasn't had them in months.
