Thank you all for your wonderful comments!!! 
Danke fuer alle lieben Kommentare!!!







Next progress- Und weiter! :) 

"less is more"...."weniger ist mehr"

Kurz zum Projekt : bei Pinterest habe ich diese Idee gesehen und zurueckverfolgt zu http://www.shannonsminis.com/avboxes.html
da gibts wer weiss was alles an Buecher-Mini-Projekten, ganz toll!
Ich konnte nicht anders..ich musste das einfach ausprobieren! :) 

Von den Buechern selbst bleibt nur der Einband erhalten, aber aus den Innenseiten mache ich ja auch was..daher kein schlechtes Gewissen! :) 
So ein Projekt sieht toll aus im normalen Buecherregal zwischen allem anderen an Buechern! Bei meinem kommt nun noch die Innnenausstattung , Beleuchtung und Dach/Abdeckung hinzu! 

Ich wollte ein bisschen an "Vorplatz" haben, auch damit man das ganze besser anfassen/plazieren etc kann. Also erst ein Versuch mit "Rasen" und Steinweg...der mir aber garnicht gefiel.
yesterday's version - gestern

...also dann heute die Methode "weniger ist mehr"...und nun siehts doch viel besser aus! :) Die Steine sind mit Kreidefarben (beinahe zu doll...) verwettert...und das Waldwichtelmaennchen ( ein fertig geschenkt bekommenes Figuerchen) kann nun seine Weihnachtswichtelbuecher einkaufen gehn! :) 

today!!! heute !!!






I first made the space infront with "grass" and stones..which i didn't like at all...so this morning , the method "less is more" came into action...and now it looks much much better!! :) The stones are "weathered" now ( nearly too much...) with chalk-colours. I still have to add the lighting, interior bookshelves and more and some kind of roof.. :)

I saw something...:) Ich hatte etwas gesehen :) ...

....and put my heart to it, as i love books!
Old books, bookshelves...decorations...
I think it is a tribute to old books when we use them - and don't throw them away :)
With these "mini-book-shops" ..well, except the titelpages of the books, there isn't much left of them...but i use the insidepages for other creations...so i don't feel bad about cutting them out :)
I am given many "i don't want them any more"  books...as friends know by now that i will make something from it!

A little bookshop on the real-life shelf , how about that? :)
I am not finished by far !!!! You can see that further down in the picture of course .....But sharing this with you is a big percentage of the happiness one feels when building something new!
Now , this is NOT MY IDEA! I saw it on pinterest and fell for it!

quite some  time later i searched for the link to the picture and maybe some more info.
and came across te webside of :
http://www.shannonsminis.com/avboxes.html

and won't tell you more....just go and see!!! :) 
..................................................................................................................................................
So, here is my way ...up to now! :)  ( these are real size books!!! not minis!!! ) 




I actually don't know if it is the right way to cut everything out...but ..anyway, that's what i did! :)  And then glued the remains together again! 

on the real-life shelf...i think it is a wonderful idea! 
I also put the led candles insight...but that will show nicer with better pictures!
I just finished the first window, there will be the door and another window! 

Theo, Praline and Caramel love it ! Praline just had to go inside already! 

Caramel always finds a way... :) 


will write in German later! : )
Deutsch kommt auch, spaeter! :)
