Moving forward with the steeple. I finished painting all of the edging stone and started to glue that into place inside the upper section of the steeple. I also added the decorative arch on the inside and another matching arch on the inside. I simply used the laser cut arch as a template for the interior arch and left off the centerline detail that appears on the exterior version.
I like to include the details but I'm trying to not go crazy with it. I used the cardboard from some milk bone boxes which is a pretty close march to the thickness of the laser cut cardstock. I also trimmed up the shingles on the two of the sides of the steeple roof and started to add shingles to the remaining two sides.

The first two sides trimmed. I didn't wait long enough and managed to tear the cardboard on one side. |

Here you can see the exterior and interior arch trim. I'll need to go in and clean the inside of the arch before I start painting. |

While you can't see them I'm gluing in the edge stones in the corners. Lots of little clamps to help everything stay in place. So many clamps that I can only do two opposite corners at the same time. |
