I have a few boxes now and am not sure what to do next really. Should I just cut them down to what I want to do for my adventures? Anyone have any good tutorials for how to make tavern props? Think I may make a tavern and inn first.

Make a normal dungeon tile, but use a wood plank style floor instead. I think it's mentioned on another thread how - I'll try to link it once I've done some digging. To make it feel like an inn, add some tables/chairs and a bar. Consider some stairs in a corner, made using multiple layers of cardboard. Then, have a dwarf mini with a tankard passed out on the floor

There's some tiles someone posted here, one of which has a wooden plank floor. Someone else mentioned somewhere that you can get a good wood effect by having lots of thin streaks of hot glue, and then painting it all dark brown and adding some dry-brushed light brown highlights. I hope this helps!

Are the tables raised off the floor? It looks like it, but I'm not sure.

I need to take some photos, but I have found that you get great tables from using the little half-inch Woodsies cubes as a base for the one-inch Woodsies circles. A little hot-glue, a little paint, and you are good to go!

I made this large ale vat last week. I boiled lollipop sticks and bent them... My next one should be an improvement.

I use tongue depressors, matchsticks and kebab sticks for all wooden features (including doors)
