The old barn shop 1

Dear readers, I started a new project in 1:12.

I found my inspiration in the beautiful shop of Jodi Hippler,  https://my-miniaturemadness.blogspot.com/      especially the large store cupboard.

Here in Holland we have also many farm shops, so inspiration enough.

                       

      So first how to start, I found 2 beautiful wooden crates in a reasonably cheap store and  in the right size, I sawed these through so that you no longer see the seam and then glued the 2 halves together, I painted them first with Gesso but later I found Chalk paint, much better.

               I still had a few nice cupboards and I painted them too.

I call it "The old barn shop" because the crate looks like an old barn,

I also want to make a front with a window and door in it.

So ..... the 1:24 house still has to wait.
