Another small update

I thought the living room needed something more so I made this chair. It's truly a combination of odds and ends from the wood box. The legs are small clothes pin halves. The arms I think were supposed to be the side rails on a child's rocker. I had to make some adjustments but they worked well for the chair arms. The top of the back is a piece of gingerbread and the bottom of the back is a piece of baseboard. The trim between the front legs was on a hutch that had one broken leg so I had to remove the trim.
Here it is in the living room with the other furniture. Looks like George is going to do some reading before dinner.

Victoria, lol. I wouldn't know either.

Thank you all for your kind comments.

BTW, the boarding house has a temporary home on top of the entertainment center. It's temporary because hubby is distressed that you can't see the front of the house, or really even the third floor without a ladder.
