Repairs needed on the outside

(Disclaimer: There are three posts in a row here where I am detailing the starting point of my new project.  I may get a little smart-alecky in some comments, but I want everyone to know that I do truly love this dollhouse and think it is beautiful.  And I especially love that it was put together by my Grandpa, and decorated by others in my family.  That said, there are a few things that I definitely want to change now that I can!)

Don't mind the random scribbles all over the pictures, I was entertaining myself.  Although I should have either written in larger font or on white background or in white writing or something, because some of them are pretty hard to see at this zoom level.  If you click on the pictures, a bigger version will pop up.  Sorry!

About those repairs I keep babbling about:

Those window frame pieces are completely missing, I'm going to need to buy replacements.  To Hobby Lobby!

 

Don't worry, I only drew on the picture!  Not on the house.

Technically not broken.  I mean the doors still open on their hinges properly.  And I've done some research.  Apparently doors not fitting inside their frames is a very common problem with these die-cut dollhouse kits.  I need sandpaper!

Below is a shot of all the bits and pieces that belong with the dollhouse, somehow.  Except the Spotted Cow, that belongs with me. 

The turntable still works too!  (and a good thing it does, I'm not sure I could fix that)

I wonder how many pictures blogspot will let me upload at one time?  Hmm... 

Next post: inside!
