Royal Aire

Woot!  Got my castle all equipped with hooks for hanging.  

Emmalee's birthday is tomorrow and this baby is going in her bedroom!

This guy was a bit of a challenge to figure out all the layers and which one goes where, but in the end it came together so sweetly.

I cut nearly the whole thing out on my bandsaw, some pieces still required the scroll saw.  I beveled the edges with my disk sander before painting, then scuffed up the edges after paint to give it texture and depth.  After that a quick couple coats of finishing spray and we were in business.  I did use the castle at my mini session marathon last month.  Here are a couple pictures of one cute dolly that made my castle look good :0}

Can you believe those eyes!?!  This little girl makes me baby hungry again...almost.

A nice little touch to bring a bit of royal into these photos.  Emmalee, who calls herself Cinderella still, is more than excited to get this castle hung on her wall.  She may only be a princess just yet, but she certainly has the royal aire down pat!  Now her bedroom can have the same feel.
