Each of us in our own way will come back to our enjoyment of the brick. For
some it may take longer than others but I think that play and building with
the brick will be an essential part of recovery and healing.
The building is stunning. Other than the cornice (which is great), I really
like the detail between the windows. I have been fooling around with a
bunch of white 1x2 log bricks (log - part # 30136) for the same thing but
could not come up with anything I liked. Your use of the 1x2 plate with
side bar as a header and footer is great and I will definitely be using your
idea as inspiration. Thanks for showing. Great job.
