Some progress in shingling...

Snow day today so I worked from home, then spent some time researching for inspiration and doing some crafty stuff. I have taken the momentum I've been feeling lately and pulled the Glencroft out of the bedroom and continued with the shingling. I didn't get too terribly far, but I made progress. I want to get this part DONE so I can decorate the house and display it. (And to move on to other things, too!)

I also set up another scene in the roombox which was a lot of fun. Here are some pics. :)
 

Room box = light box?

My goal for an unspecified amount of time (ha!) is to post everyday about something in this blog. It keeps me on my toes. Let's see how long it lasts.

So today I pulled out the small room box kit I bought from the RGT Outlet Sale sometime last fall. It's one of these: http://www.realgoodtoys.com/store/productview/110938//QuickBuild_Small_Display_Box

I was playing around with the construction and put it together without glue and realized that it would make a great light box for photographing minis and crafts! If you leave the "ceiling" off or replace the sides with columns and thin tissue paper, you could really replicate some of the ones found on this quickie Google image search.

I had no real plans for this roombox, except I didn't want to pass up the bargain, so I snatched it. Jason bought an extra small version and I am looking forward to see what he'll do with his. :)

Here's a pic I took tonight:

I can just picture different kinds of flooring and wallpaper for each scene in here, can't you? :)
