Hello John!
Welcome to the forum. I am a card maker and backing paper designer so we don't have much in common when it comes to our crafts but..extreme bird houses sound very interesting! I would love to see some of your creations. Enjoy your time here.

Hi Mollymandy
I have never built a doll house but they are pretty easy to build but
I would not be much of a decorator :D

I used to build new homes ,decks,fences and anything to do with houses and barns for over 20 yrs .
This stuff is the next best thing. :)
