Someone gave me the little Tudor House for Christmas. I really love it...but I don't know that they would want me to say who was so kind. Leave it to say it was someone who knew I needed a little lift. For some reason, this was the image I first wanted to do with it.

Perhaps someone can tell me the story that goes with this graphic. :) Brians, anyone?

Why, that's a quaint little table scene! It's amazing how the glass looks so real. I like Ironhart's buildings, too. I purchased a few for my Christmas present (wifey gave me a BIG money certificate). Oh, and by the way, you'll see yourself in his advertisements now...(sly grin).

Ironhart's structures are wonderful...I may have to invest in some more of them myself. What is lovely is that they are so beautifully designed that they don't need any postwork from my point of view (all I did in Jasc Paint Shop Pro was resize the picture and lighten it just a little). As soon as I saw the little house, I knew I needed to put it under glass to keep it from getting dusty. :) Now all I need is the story behind it....

Nice scene, dialyn. Here is a bit of a rhyme to go with it, as a Brian, no less. :-) Snow swirls round like unto faeries in the air, bringing on dreams and wishes fair. Lights from my cottage shine out into the night, reflections of my soul bearing ever bright. And on the table at my side, the magic in miniature, there resides. Shake now the bauble, and dream. jon

Very nice, Jon. I was hoping it would stir something lovely...and it did. Thank you. :)

One thing I really like about Ironhart's items is that they really call out for stories. I have most of his stuff and can't wait for more buildings. A New Year's cheers surrounded the house, enveloped the house, permeated its very essence. Clever hands, kindly soul, mirrored the joy and armored it with glass to protect against time for all of time.

I really do appreciate the praise for my work and I like seeing my buildings used. This pic is very unique and extreemly well done. I like the poem that paints a larger picture also. Crescent, you need not wait long. the next house is near completion and will compliment the tudortownhouse very well. You can view a tease of it in the product showcase forum.

Thankyou all for the compliments and have a happy new year. Billy

That means a lot to me that you liked the graphic. :) I am looking forward to the new house...I've already bought the fence to go around it. Thank you so much for doing such beautiful work. Happy New Year to you and yours!!
