Tilda's House

Come on in...sit for a while and have some tea and coffee bread. Made fresh from the oven!! I'll wait for you on the front porch, but don't wait too long or the tea will get cold.


Wow this house took forever to make, but I think it turned out alright. I purchased the house from Hobby Lobby and covered with material, the shutters, fence and roof are all made of paper. I tried to make the roof look like tin. Sweet Tilda can by purchased from Magnolia-licious along with the shabby chic fence and oak tree.


Tilda is colored with copics, the fence and tree are a combination of watercolor and copics. I distressed the roof and shutters with cocoa ink.

Thanks for stopping by, it was good seeing you again!
