Hi Sal

I really like the idea of the half wall between kitchen & dining room. I wish I'd thought of that because I'm doing mine 30's style & apparently serving hatches were very popular to save walking out the kitchen & thru the hall to the dining room.

BTW I love your style - all these houses on the go!

Jackie

Chuckle @ Sal, if you are going to build one, why not build them all!!! You certainly have some work to do now, looking forward to watching all of these progress!

Looking great so far - it will be really nice to follow a build form scratch!

i have to admit my mojo just came back with a vengence having flitted away for quite some time, hence the bottles and cakes as a distraction

i liked the idea of a half wall between the kitchen and dining room because the dining room is so tiny

val & jackie, why not eh? you know how it is when you have the primer out or the paint. if your painting one you may as well do them all, at least that was the theory, of course best laid plans and all that. besides i had to get mountfield built just so i could take it off the shelf and prove to my long suffering other half that i do still have room for another.....just in case

Sal,

Just don't forget what you are doing where......and to which property....or it could get confusing...giggle..... It's nice to see them all built, it gives a better idea of size, looking at them together like that..... look forward to seeing the progress of them all....

You've been busy creating your very own Stockbroker belt!

They look good sitting side by side like that.
