Semi-Completed Hallway and some NEWS!

Hello all!  First I want to show you my hallways I created on the first and second floor!  Last post I just showed you the hallway panels that were not installed yet.

Here they are installed!  The first floor:
it has a little window seat at the end of the hallway.  The window is yet to be installed.  Here is a closer view of the bench:

Here is the hallway on the second floor.  Instead of a window I wanted an inset place where I could hang a family portrait.  The shelves below will hold some more books and family momentos.


The door you see off to the right leads to Gomez and Morticia's bedroom.  Because of the renovations I did to the addition they now have a lot more space!

Wanna see???

Here is the Master bedroom, all ready for me to create bedroom furniture for the 3RD TIME!!  I just didn't get it quite right the first two times.... and the room was too small for anything.  I think my favorite is the greenish carpet which is made from an old chair arm cover!  Morticia is very happy about having more space (and I am too!)

Thanks for looking!  And now for the news:  Bella is going to be a BIG SISTER!!  That's right we are now expecting baby #2!  Praying that I am not as sick as I was with Bella and can continue working even if its at a slower pace!  I want to get a lot done before I have two kids and no mini-time at all! lol!!

As always, thanks for reading along my blogging buddies!  Hugs, Ara

    OMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!

    CONGRATZ!!!!!!!!! My dear Ara, I am sooooo happy for you :):):)! And for Bella who will be the big sister :).

    Thank you for sharing the news, my dear :).

    And now for that house, the aging is so perfect, I can already feel the spookiness. Love the box seat and yes, that "sickly seagrass green" that is so perfect for the room.

    It is so wonderful, seeing the development of your wonderful Addams Mansion and the growing of your own family. I feel like we have been friends for a long time :):)

      Thank you Sans!!! We are very excited!! I think Bella would be too if she understood what was going on!

      Thank you - I think I am getting better at aging. I am still no match for the great Sans though! - you have mastered it!

      I feel we have too! How fun it is to find great friends who are so far away physically but as close as a keyboard and screen! hugs, Ara

    Oh Ara! How exciting! Congrats!! When's the new baby due? Bella's gonna be such a good big sister!

    Love the new additions, although had to laugh about u changing the furniture for the third time. I think as miniaturist we are always learning new things and therefore think the things we've done before aren't up to standard, but they are. I love your work.. Can't wait to see what comes next..
