Hello followers. I hope you are all well and cracking on with your minis - making better progress than me, probably!
As said in the title, this is the home straight for Netherton. I have been working on this property since my first post here on 12th January 2012 and I have enjoyed every minute of it.
Progress has now been made on the final two rooms, The Servants' Bedroom and Linen/Sewing Room, in tandem which has taken me a bit longer but they're finally (almost) finished with just a few more accessories to add and I'm hoping that will be taken care of if I can get to the next mini Fair in York. I wasn't able to make the June event due to rail strikes.
So, onward and firstly, here is the Servants' Bedroom -
This space measures 14" x 14" x 9 1/2" (35cms x 35cms x 24cms). It was a tad awkward to deal with due to the slope of the wall on the right hand side but I got round that by putting in a false half wall to square it off. Plain emulsion for these girls, nothing fancy but comfortable enough! They are even permitted to have a couple of family photos each on the wall next to their beds.
A mug of tea and a piece of toast each is also allowed when their work is done.
Secondly, the Linen/Sewing Room.
This room is the same size as the Servants' Room and has the same issue with the slanted roof. This time I created a row of cabinets to square up the space and to give me a surface. Again, more accessories will be added soon.
Once I have these two spaces completely finished and have dealt with the little jobs that get passed over in the excitement to get on with another space, my plan is to give you a guided tour of the whole property, from the Basement up!
In the meantime, I'd like to thank you all for following me on the Netherton journey. I've thoroughly enjoyed reading all your lovely comments.
