Imagine this cozy tavern somewhere in Boston, shortly after
the Revolution.
I built this two-room house out of scrap wood.
-
Furniture is various kits, except ladder-back chairs, which I purchased
in Hong Kong.
-
I made the fireplace from scratch, using 1/4" stripwood for bricks and
1/16" square for mortar.
-
Tavern is electified; lamps (by Claire Bell Brassworks) light.
