Clarification "country cottage" or as stated "Country with a cottage garden"??
Because it says country, but then the pics in the links are showing something else
Good point, ZY. When I came up with this challenge, I was thinking "cottage", but I did put "country." I think there are many different types of cottages which could be interpreted as "country" including the French Country, English Country, and even American Country types of cottages. I'll leave that interpretation pretty open to the individual. As long as it's country and/or cottage-y you should be okay
hehe thanks cause I built and rebuilt my house like 10 times to get it the right size, but it's not a cottage I went with the country it was only after I reread the page that I noticed the whole cottage thing lol. So mines Country with a cottage type garden lol.
Hello BuildNShare! Good to see these challenges are still alive and kicking. Also Congrats on the newest Member of the team. I am sure Addict will be teaching her little one building basics before too long.

Thanks, KittKat! It's been so long since I've participated, and back then I think there were 5 levels and I was in intermediate-advanced...lol. I'll go wherever the judges think I should go, or wherever needs more contestants.

It's been a long time since I entered a BnS - I miss them. I like building, but I don't build well without direction.

Scoiattolo! Thanks for the entry form! I MIGHT try this one! It's been a LONG time since I've entering a BNS challenge! And I've discovered that Facebook's photo album is better than Photobucket's. So, I've got the entry from in Word on my desktop and I'll BM this too. Thanks, again!

Just make sure your photos of the lot are presented either as a story here in Create A Story or on a photo sharing site, such as Photobucket. As for the lot you may have to try several attempts to get it uploaded especially with the problems with the Exchange.
