The stones have been mortared and the posts that go from ground to roof are glued in. I have the project sitting on waxed paper so that if any glue leaks from putting in the corner posts it won't glue to the board. I haven't figured out yet how I want to do the back because I'll want to have some sort of access for my hands to get in and arrange things. Not sure if I want to hinge it somehow and if so where...or make the panel removable or just what I want to do. I also haven't made it because I wanted to see how the door I've chosen will fit and if I want to make it bigger or smaller than the original plans.

View from the front.

I painted the french doors. They aren't glued in place yet but I was anxious to see what they looked like. The windows are full length and one piece so I can remove the squares and have clear glass or I can do a water decal and have a design on the windows. Haven't decided yet and may put up some different options and see what you guys think. I'm also thinking I want to have a bigger base (or add to this one) so that I can have a path leading up to the doors instead of practically being on the edge. Glad I have until September....lol still a lot to figure out and do. Next thing I'm going to tackle is the roof over each wing of the building. We'll see how creative I can be to make it resemble the real life picture I'm trying to copy...lol Until next time, hope this finds everyone well.
