    I really liked the restoration. We can even see some of the decorations on it now. Well done. Thank you for the glimpses of the Dolls House. Definitely would like to see more. Does it have a name? I believe a house with character should have a name.

    @@RhooseRestorations Could be an idea after you have done a few episodes on it. Let people get a feel for what and where you are going with it, so the name choices are appropriate. The House of Goth may not suit a modern 1930s Art Deco home, but might not be as bad if the grandparents Victorian furniture was in use throughout. 😉😜

    what ever your previous experience with wood staining was, I can match it…with food colouring. Took me a fortnight to get it to fade even with so much washing that my skin was suffering. But I accidentally came across a fix (though wearing gloves is the best) After a couple of good washes, cover the areas of the stain on the skin with a cheap water based PVA glue. Let it dry and the rub hands together to start lifting the glue. As the glue peels off it takes the deep stain with it. A warm soapy wash to remove the last of the glue and job done.

    You can get latex masking fluid for Airfix type kits as well, the main difference to the watercolour version seems to be it’s often purple so you can see where you’ve painted it on. It works with acrylic, enamel and lacquer paints, so would also work with your finishes should anyone have trouble getting the watercolour version.
