Beach House Time-Table

Beach House Project

I am a member in a Dutch dolls house club and this year our group project is a veranda / porch.

I decided to use my new beach house kit for this project ( so I have some “pressure” to finish it).
2 years ago our group project was a toy shop. I am still working on that project. I hope to finish both group projects in December 2015!!!!!

 

Here is the veranda time table:

January / February (Construction):

We have to assemble the veranda. I will customized the kit. I would like to have a bigger veranda not only at the entrance. I will do also a real wooden flooring not only a paper one. I am also not satisfied with the glossy wallpaper. Maybe I paint the walls.

March (something to sit):

We have to do a chair, lounge set or a sun bed. I will do the Adirondack chair which came with the kit.

I will paint it again. The original paint is a mix of yellow and green and it looks terrible.

I will do also a little table and maybe some cushions.

 

April (Storage):

We have to do a “storage” furniture f.e. a rack or a little self. I will do a little cabinet for all the beach toys.

May (Animals on the veranda):

This is my biggest problem. Maybe I do a dog basket. I will use a blue/white striped fabric.  I hope to find a little cairn terrier in 1/24. If you know where I can buy one please contact me. Thank you. A wooden nautical bird house is also a nice idea.

June (swap):

In June we have our summer swap. I have to do something for my swap partner’s veranda.

Kitty one of our club member create a pinboard on pintrest:

Hope to find there some inspirations.

July (Plants/ door wreath):

In July I have to some plants or a wreath for the veranda. A nautical wreath with sea shells would be nice. Or maybe a palm??

August (Drinks and Food):

In August we will do some drinks, food, a bbq or a cooking plate. I don’t work with Fimo so I will do no food. Maybe I will do a cooking plate.

September (Light):

In September we can do a light, a fan, candles, a little lantern.....

October (decoration):

In October we have to decorate our verandas.....cushions, pictures, candles.....this is really not a problem. I have lots of ideas!

November (free choice):

In November there is a free choice. Something for the beach house.....

December (Swap):

In December is also a swap. A little x-mas present for my swap partner’s veranda.

I really like our group project. There is also a monthly chat where we can change our ideas.
