Windows Instructions are being developed.
I'm working on developing the instructions for the construction of the windows. While they aren't terribly difficult to put together, they are small and fragile. Using these instructions will provide you with the details you will need to get them put together correctly and safely. I'll update when they are ready.

This is the list of all items that are included in the Full Mansion Kit purchase. You'll see it comes with 400+ individual items. Clearly, this is not a project for children, but there are lots of parts that children can help with.

Moving the blog to Blogger
After headaches with maintaining my own blogging system, I'm simplifying and going with blogger to do the blog posts. I'll get the old posts moved over here soon.
The goal will be to post updates and news on this blog, and also to provide some more details in the building of the Christmas Vacation Advent House.
