Remi and Bailey's New Place

Okay it's not finished, but I couldn't resist sharing. Here I am thinking of buying and customizing bookshelves when I could just buy foam core and make homes!




I'm not finished yet. I have to scruff up the "concrete" floor, find the missing black piece for my staircase, or maybe use a ladder staircase. I'll add some railing to the top floor, and I'm thinking of making a piece for the front that folds out so you can close it up and it will have a front door and windows.

Also, there is an additional room, a studio for both of them. He's a graffiti artist and she's a keyboardist. So some things may shift around.
 
Oh guys, I caved in and took down Tallulah's hair. It looks pretty good. I didn't have to do any trimming or anything. I dunno what is up with this picture. She doesn't have strange triangles on her eyes...You'll have better pictures soon. She's up for a photostory!


 And here is the happy couple enjoying a family moment. Can't we get rid of Veronica (Julian's mom)? It would be so easy if she wasn't around. Ah, such is life. Maybe you'd see a custody battle in their future.

I'm going to try to get this loft finished this weekend, so I hope to show you more soon!!

smooches,
dani

    1. You have read this blog before, right? You'll notice I've been using foam core as well, but only to build rooms, not a whole home.

    1. Well the kiddies are sick but I'm hoping to get at least some of the basic construction done tonight. I'm sort of glad True Blood is over so I can get some work done on Sunday nights!

    1. Thanks Sergio. The stairs come from a My Scene playset. Here Em'lia took these stairs and filled in the cracks with plaster. I'd like to do this. Give it a more realistic feel...http://emiliacouture.blogspot.com/2008/07/spiral-staircase.html

  5. This looks great Dani, and what a fabulous idea! I've been thinking about those storage shelves but my little one is getting way too curious about my toys, so this idea I may have to use for the high shelf in my closet. It's tall enough to make this design and get multiple condos made. Hmm...great idea and way more affordable. :)

    Bailey and Remi are an adorable couple! Julian fits right in with them, too cute. Tallulah's hair looks beautiful. Can't wait to see her story...

    1. The best part is the ability to take it apart or add to it, rearrange it, etc. I want to have permanent homes, but changing it up is always fun! Oooh, the potential for the rest of my folks!

  6. Great job Dani! It looks really good. I can't wait for you to finish it. I regret not purchasing the My Scene Masquerade set. The cost is phenomenal nowadays.

    1. Thanks Georgia Girl! I wish I knew the treasure I had when I had it too. I let several pieces go, including that window. Grr!

  7. Love this idea and cant wait to see how your progression goes. LOL, too bad Veronica is about to get the boot, but sacrifices must be made for the sake of drama.

Introducing Ayumi

I haven't been feeling particularly inspired with stories in Grandville, but their plastic lives are being led, with or without my story telling. And I have to practice my photography so instead I'm going to do a Cliff Notes if you will, of what has been going on in Grandville and who all these new characters are. First up, Ayumi. I might give her a new name at some point. I hate keeping the Integrity name but sometimes it just happens. She is a Korean supermodel who uses her funds to support her research as an astrophysicist. She got her Ph.D. at 18. This is Ayumi's house. Well, one of them. This is Ayumi's boyfriend of 10 months, Raj Nirvana. He's a yoga instructor. They have a harmonious relationship. Still, she wonders about that girl Marie. They seem to do a lot of talking after his yoga class. Ayumi loves hanging out with her girls. Nothing quite as fun as a day of shopping. Claire sighs, "How weird to have a bank account. ...

Zee Gypsies!

I'm home today, the kids are at school (half day), so I decided to take some pictures with my little window of time. I rarely show the gypsies and one of you guys requested it, so here they are! "Hello, I am Carmen Kirpachi. Welcome to our home." "This is my husband Milosh." "Hallo."  "This is my brother, Franco. While his gaje girlfriend Josephine is in Paris, he's spending a lot more time with us." "Excuse me, I have to put some more wood in the stove so I can get dinner started." "My goat stew is Milosh's favorite but we need to get the pot hot first." "This is my living area, also known as Franco's bedroom. But we don't mind. The Romany love having family around." "Milosh says I drive like a fugitive so he doesn't let me drive very often." "But sometimes I put a glamour on him and he forgets how much he hates my driving." ...

Ugh whatever. Just, here!

Folks, lemme tell you, I am so tired of my little big project. The big stuff was easy (spray painting and such). That was over weeks and weeks ago. It's been the small stuff. And I'm still nowhere near done but I'll do the rest in Phase Two (Bailey and Remi's wedding). I miss my dolls so hard. I have two new beauties I haven't even taken shots of. I have pretty new clothes that just sit around, unworn, unappreciated, unphotographed. Stories untold! All for this shizz. Before: And today, Grandville's food truck, Enchanted Eats! Lights! "Lavita Terrell here for Channel One News, Grandville. I'm here with Mistress Ava Stronghold in front her food truck, Enchanted Eats!" "Mistress Ava, food trucks are so last week. Why bother? What makes Enchanted Eats different?" "I've got to disagree Lavita. Food trucks have been around as long as humans have had markets. They're just taking a new form. I thin...
