As you know, my plans are to turn Le Chateau Doll's House into a Creole Town house in New Orleans. I started sketching over the photo on the box and drawing out my cast iron railing and shutters. I extended the smaller balconies into one large balcony that will run the width of the front of the house.The problem is when I got to second floor I could not decide if I should keep the staircase like it is in the photo or lose the staircase and run a second balcony the width of the front of the building. Losing the stairs will be in keeping with the original design I planned (as seen in the bottom photo from the book) but I kind of like the grand staircase now. Keep or lose the staircase? decisions, decisions
