My parents designed/made the house for me for my tenth birthday.<br /> I've found that using "real" materials actually doesn't work sometimes because they don't translate well to miniature. The base of the cabinet is made from very thin wood and the cabinet doors are cut from mat board. The dishwasher is faced in stainless contact paper. The top is a piece of wood that I covered in joint compound and sanded and lightly painted several times to erase all of the grain and give the smooth, yet not shiny effect of real marble. The marble finish was done with a combination of white and grey craft paints. I used a tiny brush to faux paint the marble veining then covered it in washes of white paint and added more veining to slowly build it up while sanding between coats. I'll try to go back if I get a chance and detail how I made everything in a special blog post :)white owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01659770677548813529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5429308545810859355.post-32628999495521738502013-03-05T09:02:28.331-08:002013-03-05T09:02:28.331-08:00Would you be willing to share how you did your cou...Would you be willing to share how you did your countertops? It is very hard to find carrera that thin. And I would certainly break it if I tried to cut out for the sink. Is it real? It's really lovely, and it looks like you had quite an amazing house to work with. I found this through pinterest, do you have any more details on how you made your pieces?VLScavengerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10257769484945338429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5429308545810859355.post-21136135290955384952012-03-14T21:41:41.433-07:002012-03-14T21:41:41.433-07:00Thanks Pat! <3Thanks Pat! <3white owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01659770677548813529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5429308545810859355.post-53911887907651244622012-03-14T18:16:29.940-07:002012-03-14T18:16:29.940-07:00You've got mad skills!
