Let The Sun Shine In......

Too Much to Do, Too Little Time....

It was one of Those Weekends, Dear Readers, when all the other projects in the RL World demanded most of my Time, so Precious Little got accomplished in the Mini Worlds! Spring has finally arrived with all the Garden chores and the beautiful Sunny mornings calling me outside. I am sure you know how it is! But I was able to work on the door to the bathroom in Rose Thorn Cottage! And I wanted to reassure Marisa over at Steinworks Blog, that I would not dream of forgetting the bathmat! It was high on my list of little details still needing to be done, so I got out my scissors and cut into a small infant romper with a velour texture and a cute pattern in pink and white.....

Of course, the bathroom is so small that the bathmat gets caught in the door when you open it, so you simply Must pick it up and hang it over the side of the tub when you are done bathing!
The morning sun was shining so beautifully that it filled the Cottage with a Rosy glow....

And even though the bathroom door/wall is not yet glued in place, here you can see how it will look when the bathroom is completed. That tiny room will be virtually inaccessible to all but the mini people, so I need to be sure it is well stocked before I attach the final wall!
And because that Morning Sunlight was calling so clearly, I had to take a tour around all the houses, just to see what still had not been done.....

The Folly is just as you last saw it, 

except that Daphne is no longer staring into space.....

The little Rats are still awaiting progress on their Tree House.....

Which stands Patiently beside the Folly....

The Dressing Room beside the Bath is still unfinished.....

It still needs its window, and lighting, and furniture....

Not to mention the rooms above......

Here you can see both the dressing room and the toilet.... 

which also needs its light figured out....

And while we are inspecting bathrooms.....

The Folly bath is lit by the morning sun....

but it needs just about everything except the light!

And Pollyanna has been looking at the Bath 

in The Lovely Old Dollhouse....

She thinks it could use all new fixtures.... 

and most importantly, a mirror over the sink!

Meanwhile, downstairs in the front Hallway, 

the sun is shining in through the sidelights of the front door....

Lighting up the new Antique chair....

so like the one my family has been handing down for Generations!

Meanwhile over at the Castle, Father Alban is still contemplating 

which Vision he should render next....

 When perhaps he should make it his life's Work just to complete the chapel ceilings....!

Which were begun by his predecessor... 

with whom he trained as a child....

so he knows the pattern of the stories intended on the unpainted portion....

He has been dreaming too long...!

And Will still contemplates the ancient wardrobe in the Castle Council Chamber....

He is busy buying up antiques for his shop "Otts And Ends"...

But we are not sure that he sees it at all....

Perhaps he is still trying to figure out where he stands with Daphne....

And what he should do about looking for her child.....

Because now that he knows, he cannot forget.

And let us not Forget the Conservatory......

Seemingly abandoned.....

But barely begun!

That Floor!

Made of mismatched tiles....

Still in need of so many more.....

The sun has not Forgotten..... and visits every Day...

Waiting for me To Find The Time to sit and make more tiles....!

Oh so many Projects!

And do you remember the Sewing Machine...?

I found Another one!!!!

Can you believe it???

(Can you even See it???)

It will have to have it's own Entire Project!!!

But it will have to have Patience.....

It will probably be quite some Time before I get to it...!

And Speaking of Patience......

Remember the Saints?

Still Awaiting their Details......
When was the last Time anyone even stood in the Great Hall
and Gazed Heavenward...?

Ages and Ages Ago....!
In the Dark Ages..... Long Before the Sun Returned!
Oh that Sun!
Shining Its bright light on All my unfinished Projects.....

Letting me know just how much there is to do.....

Like start to plan the Sink for Rose Thorn Cottage...
Which will sit under this window.....
Oh, Dear Readers, there is So Much to Do!
But whether there is enough Time or not......
We Have to Love it when the Sun Shines In!
