Outer walls finished

hi everyone:)
I'm moving to finishing my roombox. (I think I'll need to buy a new shelf for finished projects once I'm done: I do not feel comfortable enough with their quaility to sell them yet and I can't store all of them at my mom's - she doesn't have enough space for it :))
Today I'd like to show you how the walls look like outside now. (However, again, it's evening and the colors are all wrong. I do not have a camera and take photos on my husband's phone when he's home from work :( My own camera is next on the list though :))
I have also made a curtain for the window, glued brirds on the inner walls (mostly to cover dirt, lol) and sewd a little dress to hang in the corner.
Anyway, here what I have now. I'll take better shots at the weekend to show you how it's really look like.

Some progress

Weekend. It means finally some time to make minis. Usually. But, sadly enough, yesterday I cought terrible flu and was litterally not able to get up. Today feeling much better, thanks :)
However, lying in bed you also can do something pretty. I decided to try embroidery and I'm quite pleased with the result (the cushion is little too big but that's ok for the first attempt :))
This is what I generally like about miniature: you get to do so many things! you do not limit yourself by only painting or only woodwork - you do everything and manage to finish in a few minutes (hours, days, lol :) ) I certainly know that I wouldn't have enough patience to make, say, real-size embroided sheet (or perhaps even napkin! he-he) But when I can see the result right away - it is so much pleasure and fun!
I have as well almost finished the bed during the week (almost because it might need another coat of paint on it's legs - they tend to fall off :)))

When I was in store couple of days ago I saw small nice cutting board - and that is exactly what I need for this project. I won't even change a thing in it - it's the perfect flooring. Need to add only walls now and the room's ready to furnish :)



here's couple things more that I was able to do - a blanket and another simple cushion:
