Dottie's Lighthouse

This is a lighthouse scene my wife Dottie made as a gift for a friend. It features a light in the lens compartment, "Cobblestone" walls, Keeper's quarters and a beach with ocean waves breaking on the shore.

This is one of her simpler examples - I'll post some photos of her castles soon.

Thanks on behalf of Dottie

Thanks for the kind words - The little gizmos outside the keeper's quarters are "Sea Oats", or "Pampas Grass" that grows near the coast here in NC. she used pretzels for the stems and coconut for the blooms - Shreds of chewing gum colored with food coloring make the leaves at the bottom. My apology for the crummy photo!

The waves are so realistic! The keepers' quarters are a really nice extra touch. Are those paddles outside the house? Really beautiful!
