howdy folks...this has been a fun project to do with my wife...i never thought it would be such a pain in the rear working on such a small scale...nail it....rip it apart because the scale did not look right...stuff like that...i am no wood worker....but in the end it i think the stables came out pretty darn nice. we made the stables for 1 of our best friends adopted daughter...she is in the all about horses stage...every piece of the stables we cut or made ourselves....every popsicle stick cut and stained....latches...pickets..cut and painted...even the shingles we made from card stock and craft sand and glue....we even put in lights....just thought i would show yaw what i have been up to....pics are not in any type of order....and not so good. pics were took before final trim paint...and trimming of molding...4 foot long x 1 foot high hope the album link works....by the way im trying to tumble some flourite....should be ready good or bad in about 3 weeks....kev. s31.photobucket.com/user/fittycents/library/miniature%20toy%20horse%20stables

Cool project Kev! Lots of nice details.. I like the way you added lighting. I'll bet your friend's girl is thrilled with it.
