Yikes!

It’s a week before Christmas. Mark has very kindly agreed to put together a dollhouse for a friend’s daughter and I’ve agreed to paint it. The picture above shows the dollhouse as it looked this morning… what do you think the chances are that it will be assembled and painted by Christmas?? I’m thinking that she’s going to have to wrap up the empty box for her daughter to open. I went with this friend to pick out the dollhouse and buy supplies, and it never occurred to me that this thing would be such a huge project. I knew it would take a while, but do you see those little bags in the picture? Those are the shingles for the roof that must be individually glued down. We’ve had the kit for a couple of weeks, and now I’m realizing that we needed to have much more of a sense of urgency about getting started on it.  I’ll post another picture in a couple of days and we’ll see how far it’s come…
