I pre-assembled the porch roof and I’m letting it dry before I install it.
While it's drying, I prepared the sign. You can certainly make your own sign by designing it on the computer and either printing it yourself or taking it to an office supply store for printing. That way you can name your shop anything you would like.
I painted all of the shutters and put them on. I also painted and put on all of the gable roof trim.
There’s little left to do on the outside of this dollhouse before I begin shingling, so I’m going to go ahead and begin preparing the interior ceiling trim first. I will be using wooden skewers.
