The roof! First, for stability (and to hide a little crooked boo-boo), I added a lovely piece of trim along the roof line at the back, painting it white.

So, now that the walls were up, the wainscoting could be finished in the corners. This was fiddly work and my stir sticks were difficult to cut straight.
Finally the big day arrived when the walls could be glued together and the room would actually become a standing structure!! I was very excited!
And then the third wall was added! A room, finally! All the days of piece work came together and it felt wonderful!
Next: Finishing the wainscoting, baseboards and chair rail.
So this is where I was so far: the needle felted backdrop mapped out and started, the walls with the door and window openings cut out and the roof selected.
Next: the doors and windows! But first, a little set back: I broke a corner of the shelf! Just the underside (presswood) but still, I'll have to be more careful when I install the needlefelt blanket. Glue, some clamps, a bit of sanding and we were back in business!
Blue painters' tape is great for holding little things down.
