I've sent in my entry and I'm really pleased with how it all came together. Unlike the last time that I entered ....and didn't have time to finish the inside, this diorama is finished, inside & out.
This is my entry:
When the Greenleaf DH company showed the kit to be used for the SpringFling, I fell in love with it! What I like most about these types of kits is that they're so easy to bash and turn into a unique one-off.
I immediately thought of a back-to-the-earth one room house whose inhabitants have learned to make do and even, if lucky, sell some homemade items .....hence the greenhouse made (supposedly) of individual windows, the slightly weather worn house exterior with its mossy cedar shake roof and the make-do market stand display area.
As always, the "make" decides how it wants to look ....and in the end, has become, I hope, a celebration of our tradional fall harvests.
My entry is entitled: HarvestHome
P.S.: Although the contest doesn't officially close until the third of September (tomorrow), I don't think that showing my entry off one day early will matter. If there's another entrant who needs to pick off any ideas, well all I can say is ....enjoy!
