Roombox is finally finished!

After seven long months of work, I finally finished my first roombox. This room was entirely handmade and the only store bought items were the fire place ( ourtter frame/mantel) , the piece over the mantel and the ceiling trim. Everything else was carefully designed to have an unique look , making this room totally one of a kind! *grin*
I also should add that for the chandelier, I purchase a very plain piece and it was originally brass color.... I added the crystals after I leaf gold the entire piece.

The windows are missing my pictures that I will be printing soon. I found an artist in UK that does fantastic curtains and I order a set. I have lots to do here as far as adding furniture and my touch ups. I am looking forward to this stage.... it is my favorite!

I am looking for a nursery roombox, if any of you makes it ,please contact me. It will be a while before I start a long project such is this!*grin*

The fire logs are real wood that have been burned with a small torch.The holder is real metal that was flatten and weld in. Its weight quite a bit giving a feeling of the real stuff...*grin*

Fireplace....

The fireplace is finally finished after several months. I get so paranoid about the details ...
the handmade bricks *needed* to be painted to have a depth effect. I want this room top be beautiful and unique but I also want to look real. Real fireplace has a dust left from the fire... mine has it too!*grin*


Below is a close up of the bricks.... I am a happy girl today!*grin*


I am about to stain the floors , as soon I have the chance but because the only thing I have not made yet was the wall sconces , I decided to go ahead and get started..... here is the beginning... I twisted the copper wire to create the *body* and welded for a base. The wood in the back has a groove and I will add apoxie to set the light bulb.... the wood will be cut and used to look like a candle.
