HoneyDukes update!

well its being a while since i last posted, but here is an update on Honeydukes.
Ive done a basecoat on the exterior, i want to brick it but looking at different options..
The windows and doors are dark green, and on the windowsill are some lollypops, and the No Melt Ice cream stand, and Bearties every flavoured beans. Not sure if these will stay where they are but for now they look good for the purpose lol

Eeek! my hagrid doll i love him... hes a true giant about 7.5inches... so hes perfect.. i was going to make his hut but im not sure now, however in due course i will be making the Great Hall of Hogwarts so he may just go in there :)

Sugar Quills, advanced potion making book and the book of monsters book from Harry potter!

The advanced Potion making book is for another project, to which i hope to have some decent progress on it at some point soon. But here are my sugar quills that i bought on etsy, arnt they fabulus :)
 
 
 










 I also got the book of monsters, both books are readable and are fantastic. i love them although this book i feel is a little out of scale but i suppose you can get away with it, with it being harry potter and all magical etc.

forum!

Ive decided to come off the forum for a little while, things just havnt been the same as they used to be. I miss the older forum members and how fun and exciting it used to be. Events over the last few days have upset me, and things have been said that shouldnt have. everyone just seams to be doing it to each other. Dont get me wrong i love most people on their old and new but things havnt seemed right for a while. I joined so that i can chat about my hobby with others that are interested and show progress pictures and ask for help and i thought we was one happy family. seems a few others are saying the same things too. maybe a break is what i need.

Santa's Grotto! With a cheeky party pooper and intruder!

well last year i got the retreat, and managed to get it up and going for xmas! this year ive changed it around a little and added things, as well as taking things out. Thought it would vary it and it would be a good change. Even Mr grinch who stole xmas tried to ruin it, but in the end as it does in the story he begins to enjoy the christmas spirit.

here are the photos:
