plate rack and cupboards

I was commissioned to make this plate rack and pair of cupboards by the talented Michelle who is making a whole Hogwarts dollhouse.  It was fun to work out the logistics and design with her.  For the first time, I photoshopped my design together for her approval, and then I built it according to those measurements.  It was fun!  My finished product turned out just like my photoshopped image.  I had done something similar with my ambulance volante, but to a much lesser extent.  The computer is such a valuable tool though.  Nearly every item I make gets its own folder, including various reference sources and photos of the thing itself.  The ambulance volante folder has about 137 files, but this cabinet has only 45.

I wish I could see it installed, and see the rest of her amazing dollhouse too.  This will of course go in the kitchen, above a similarly styled kitchen sink with wooden cabinets.

It's a wonderful plate rack and I am SO thrilled with it, as it is exactly what I wanted and was looking for. I know it will look perfect in its new home.

So many thanks for your wonderful work and time!

That is really excellent craftsmanship (I'm in awe!) and looks stunning with the little crockery on. Is that your own stuff? Too adorable!
