If I had even tried the oak on it I think it would have stopped working in protest, and I could not have blamed it! Thank goodness for Russ and his big boy tools!<br />I am so glad you like the roof! I was leery of having only the back half affixed to the walls and do feel better about not having to worry about affecting the wiring or if the hinge would be strong and secure etc. It was a happy accident in the grand scheme of things!Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-46528944595974137082021-02-24T05:36:53.783-08:002021-02-24T05:36:53.783-08:00Oh Huibrecht!

I often get mixed up when trying to decipher what I am supposed to click on when the blog language is not my native tongue. Just another wonderful reminder that our blogs and love of minis has brought us together from places far and wide!<br /><br />I am so happy you like the project and have found something in it's process that may be of help to you in creating Huis ter Swinnendael. There was a lot of great information in those real life videos, but the geometry was too much for my brain. At least I came away with something I could understand, lol!Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-34180941254793276022021-02-24T05:31:17.977-08:002021-02-24T05:31:17.977-08:00¡Gracias Marian! ¡Estoy emocionado de hacer e inst...¡Gracias Marian! ¡Estoy emocionado de hacer e instalar las ventanas!Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-42855751336005895092021-02-24T02:53:14.867-08:002021-02-24T02:53:14.867-08:00Jodi, el tejado es espectacular, me encantan las v...Jodi, el tejado es espectacular, me encantan las vigas en madera oscura en contraste con la madera blanca.Deseando ver más avances.Carolina misminicasashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03590982455349370816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-89177091563804308722021-02-23T09:56:47.238-08:002021-02-23T09:56:47.238-08:00The beams are fantastis!

I love the added industrial effect with the brackets and silver bolts! Very "chic"! And the planking for the ceiling is just perfect too! I think you will find it is a good thing to have the roof glued down.... the trusses and wiring would have gotten in the way if it needed to hinge open. The sky lights are a great idea too and will certainly add to the modern feeling as well as the available lighting and views inside. This is one exciting kitchen!!! :):)Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-23399552724654552562021-02-22T11:45:12.908-08:002021-02-22T11:45:12.908-08:00Hello Jodi,

I accidentaly clivkrd the sign out button on the right instead of the blue publish button on the left. So no glitches, just me being stupid. <br /><br />That being solved, I love tne miniature dream kitchen you are making for Tasha. The floor and beamed cealing both turned out great. Starting a haringbone or chevron parquet floor with a triangle in the middle makes sense and gives a stunning result. I will use this tip gratefully on one or two rooms in Huis ter Swinnendael. I myself love the herringbone floors. <br /><br />And the cealing and beams really lift up the room. I look forward to tbe next post on this kitchen. <br /><br />Huibrecht <br />Huibrechthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00149990267212076540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-56158299087471723992021-02-22T10:46:11.643-08:002021-02-22T10:46:11.643-08:00Me encanta ese tejado.

He is just tickled when my blog friends think of him as a hero! 💗 Sometimes the most unforeseen circumstances turn into life's most amazing blessings, and today is a lovely reminder of just that: 34 years ago today, at 18 and 22 years old, Russ and I were married. We were young, scared and not terribly supported by our families who were naturally concerned that young love does not last. But we did, became each other's everything, and are so grateful for the life we share and the family we created! He's a good one, and I am so lucky! 💗💗💗<br /><br />I am so happy to know that you like and appreciate the little details of the ceiling/beams! Those little brads were a challenge to work with because there is not much to hold onto while you are removing the flaps! Luckily, this time, I did not have to get on my hands and knees to scour the floor. Only one brad fell from my hands but amazingly, landed in my lap! To be honest, sometimes when these things fall I hardly have the heart to look. Unless it is highly valuable, it will end up in my vacuum canister and be considered "spoils". 😋Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-49287241272391494942021-02-22T07:46:04.450-08:002021-02-22T07:46:04.450-08:00¡Gracias, Rosa María! ¡Espero que las cosas que he...¡Gracias, Rosa María! ¡Espero que las cosas que he planeado salgan bien para poder darle a Tasha un regalo que le encantará!Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-78744243027292328742021-02-21T08:05:24.897-08:002021-02-21T08:05:24.897-08:00As, usual, when I'm late with my comments, eve...As, usual, when I'm late with my comments, everything I want to say is already mentioned.

And seeing the result I am convinced that it was a blessing that the shop where you ordered did not deliver and Russ had to stand in - your other solution could never have been that good. <br /><br />It was big fun to read this post and follow your progress, thoughts and even your senior moments. *grin* Adding the sklylights was a brilliant idea, it's so good to have natural light in such a roombox (let's be honest, we don't always switch the batteries on, do we?) and the wood strips you made with this shabby white look beautiful, even more with the contrast of the beams. This combination is always an eyecatcher and the construction of the beams is awesome. And it was even great for attaching the lights! But what I loved the most is this little detail of the "iron" straps... it's things like these which set a highlight. And using the brads was a great idea, although it made me wonder... It's so easy to write down "I cut the fastener flaps off silver metal brads and used them as the bolt heads"... but in real life it must have been quite a time consuming job to cut all these things off (and pick some of them up from the floor after they took the opportunity for a flight... or do things like these just happen to me???). But the effect is awesome! And as always I'm looking forward to see more!<br /><br />Hugs<br />BirgitBiWuBärhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624262663621307478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423267884035549444.post-59322417497073804832021-02-20T10:18:28.233-08:002021-02-20T10:18:28.233-08:00Un trabajo impresionante Jodi, será una cocina esp...Un trabajo impresionante Jodi, será una cocina espectacular , pues las vigas que has logrado hacer son increíbles.
