The walls are up

I cannot even describe how excited I'm about this I'm a Giat challenge. It's so marvellous that I cannot contain myself, I spent almost whole weekend and monday evening on this project. On saturday I had to go to theater which was a drag... Heh, no it wasn't, theater was the best. None the less I was super delighted to continue the building on sunday.


I started, like all buildings need to be started, on the foundation. My tearoom stands now on pilars, it means dampnes wont bother it at all. Yay! Then I added flooring on top. I used the fire starter sticks, those are very versatile like I said.



It's very modern to build houses from elements, so I made a wall element.


The doors and some parts of the wall will be shoji screens. I made my own screens from thin mulberry paper and matches.




Even though the tearoom is not even nearly finished I'd so like to move in allready. The house is amazing. I need to visit the craft store again to buy more wood supplies, since I've run out, before I can continue on the construction site.
