When this all was finished i started with the windows. meassured them and cut them out with my jigsaw. After this i could fill all the screw holes and small gaps with wood filler. sanded it down with my orbit sander and 120 grit sand paper. Just to get a very smooty result.

Painting the House and Putting the Legs On.

Now it is time for painting. i used a water based wite paint wich is safe for kids. First step you have to do is cleaning everything. for a good and smooth paint finish. i gave it two coats of paint. The legs are from an old coffee table. those were perfect for this house. just had to cut off 15cm for a perfect hight.

The Result.
