Today was white day. I've been working on the dining set for a couple of days now and finally I'm getting the enamel to cover the mahogany colour it once was. I don't want the dining room to get dark and claustrophobic, and with that very dark floor the furniture was just way too dark. This modelling enamel is amazing stuff but white in any media is difficult to work with. 
To top it all off, I'm down to the trim on the house. I started building the second layer of the window frames this evening, and got three coats of white on all the porch rails, eaves trim, door, and post trim. I added another piece of dark trimming to the back of the house to neaten up the appearance from the back and started on the final mouldings for the two upstairs rooms. It was much much easier to apply mouldings as I was building - note for the next project.In this box of surprises I was delighted to find some doorway hinges, so I think I will be able to get a functioning doorway on this house, that would excite me greatly!
It's coming along great!
