This piece is titled Magical Kingdom. A few weeks ago a long-ago friend of Nils's showed up, and we ended up all going to the Goodwill bins the next day. Mary pulled the lovely background wood piece out of the bins and my heart sank for a moment that I had missed out on it, then she came over and handed it to me. I kept trying to use it horizontally and finally took it off the wall and set on down in front of some other things...on end. A couple days later I walked by and realized that I needed to use it vertically and from there it all fell into place. Old post office box dials are in the lower right, an old wooden box houses the vintage photos, and a rusted plastic castle tops it off. The stained glass piece at the top was from a disassembled glass lamp from the bins.
This treehouse has a 10x14 platform, so will have a little deck around the actual house. We got the platform frame done, and the floor joists put up. Now for decking. Jake below "meditating" on the started platform. Did I mention he is quite theatrical? Ommmmm......
