Elf Castle + Spots

It is Theo's turn for the chicken pox this week - looks like Ello has them too....

So, I thought I would bring you a little blast from the past.

Last Christmas Fil aka the Woodbotherer did several commissions and this Elf Castle was one of them.

 

Complete with a throne, balcony and even a dragon's cave at the bottom.

Steps lead up to the beautifully shaped front door - I love the details.

and of course complete with proper defenses!

Have a great week.

A Commisson

 Another commission is leaving the workshop this week. This time it is a two storey fairy house furnished with special furniture.

 I love the way each one is different. A unique fairy house.

 The furniture sweetly arranged by my girl for the photo.

And the house is packed by her too! Ready for it's journey south and new owners.

Best wishes

The knight conquered the 'dragon' which looked a bit like a blue crocodile!?

and to wind down.... a cosy spot watching the fire

In the Workshop

A Castle

In a few weeks time our little boy will turn 4. When he announced he would like a Castle the Wood Botherer's mind started working, his eyes glinting. Then he was gone, and everyone else banished from the workshop whilst he worked on some very important top secret stuff.

Well, today I can give you a peek at the Castle nearly complete but still in progress, yep still tweaking. Here she is:

This is the Gate House and one of the turrets

A turret on each side and a large tower at the back

A view inside the Castle. Bottom level is a kitchen with large fire place, next level is the throne room and above are the royal bedrooms. I have to say I am loving all those stairs with access to the next level.

and of course the knights and archers to keep guard

 

Thanks for visiting! It has been a fun start to blogging. We plan to update weekly so there is plenty of time for making. So, see you next week.
