Shenandoah Log Cabin Dollhouse

Shenandoah Log Cabin Dollhouse
(DuraCraft)

This is the Shenandoah Log Cabin Dollhouse, kit was made by Dura Craft. This version is made of MDF, I do not like MDF. It is easy to work with but there is no way to make it look like wood.... and a Log Cabin should look like wood.! WE are still working on this one as well.... I don't think any of my houses are completely finished.! I always find something to do to them... The Front porch stone work and the Chimney on this are made from egg cartons.!!!

I picked up this house from Craigslist a little over a year ago. It is HUGE. Roughly 2' X 4' .

A day in the life of.....

I am working on making my blog easier to read and keep up with. I have alot going on right now so I may not have much to share about my dollhouses. With my Boys just starting back to school yesterday, just let me tell you yesterday was so boring.!!!! Wrestling season getting ready to start here in the next couple of months.... oldest son learning to drive and taking driving education... and myself working and decluttering our home and my craft room... I am beat by the end of the day... I will try to keep this blog updated on my progress with the decluttering of the craft room and my dollhouses..... I am also going to start going back to the gym in the next month. I miss it, and I felt so much better when I was working out.

The pierce 1

I actually have 2 Pierce Dollhouses that are in need of rehabbing.!!  Here is a link to the first one I recieved from a wonderful Mini Friend. I have not yet had time to work on it as I dont have room right now to set it up and start rehab work.!! I am working on decluttering and rearranging my work area now so hopefully I can get started very soon.... alot of Real Life stuff has stepped in my way but I hope to be able to work on this one soon.

Chill in the air


Today is a cool damp day.. but it is 56 degrees outside.... finally starting to try to warm up.. I sure hope it lasts.

Saturday I aquired a Shenandoah Log Cabin Dollhouse... it is made of MDF , I am rather disappointed that it is made of MDF. I have alot of plans for it... but cannot figure out how to finish the exterior.




I have not been working on my dollhouses or miniatures much lately.. been busy with work & home.
