Current project



She's waiting patiently on my worktable.  We havent quite decided if she will get a total rehab including exterior paint. I am not a fan of pink, but her new owner may be. I believe this one is sold and I am just waiting for confirmation. Once I know for sure I will  speak with new owner about the colors she wants.

Unfortunatly, shes put together with hot glue so she may have to come apart and be completely rebuilt. I usually try not to  take them apart but I do NOT like hot glue.

Floors need redone, walls & Ceing painted. Windows are all intact. I will have to make her a new door... and I am really not excited about that curved door, Thankfully I can use the other house door for a template.!

Our 20th Anniversary....

My Husband and I just celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary March 5.  I woke up to find a package sitting in front of the coffee pot. I assumed it was chocolates, so I sat it off to the side for later. Hubby woke up and asked if I had opened it yet.  It is a Galaxy Tablet.!!!!

My digital camera has been acting very weird lately... and we wanted to get some video of our youngest son in baseball so he could see what he is doing wrong. I was shocked..... It has a video camera and camera on it... so I will be able to take photos of my dollhouses, and load them here. I am still learning this thing... so once I have some understanding I will start sharing more...

My First Dollhouse

My Nanny and Grandpa got me my first dollhouse as a child. There isa funny story that goes along with it.  I was young maybe 3 or 4, and my grandparents and mom were talking about putting up the Christmas tree. I walked in and told my Nanny " Nanny, you put up the chrissy tree and I'll get my dollhouse out from under your bed. " lol, needless to say she was not happy.
My first dollhouse was the Fisher Price Dollhouse.

 

I still have the Nursery, Living Room chair & sofa, Coffee table and fireplace, Kitchen table set, Kitchen Set, Bathroom set and Bedroom set.

The Pierce by Greenleaf

The Pierce was given to me by a wonderful Mini Friend. It is in need of a total rehab. This is what it looked like when I picked it up.

 

 

 I enjoy rehabbing dollhouses !

I love to see them AFTER the rehab.!  

Currently it is sitting in the corner of my work table all flat.!

 I stained the first floor and painted the porch area.

I took it completely apart. Mudded all the walls, after peeling off the crunchy wallpaper.

I have not started sanding it yet.... waiting for better weather so I can take it outside and sand the drywall mud off.! Less dust to clean up after.!
 

This room is the Kitchen....

I just need to clean off my work table so I can start rebuilding it....

This room is upstairs over the Kitchen...

 

 

This room will eventually be the upstairs bathroom.

 



This is the upstairs room above the living room, it would make a lovely Master bedroom but the staircase comes up to the right.... so Guests would have to come thru the master to use the restroom.!!!

 

Looking down.... it needs alot of work!

Organizing and decluttering

I am decluttering and organizing my craft room. I am currently debating if I want to sell some of my kits and make room boxes. The room boxes would give me more room, I think. Room boxes I could hang on the wall. Dollhouses I can't. ! 
I have several ideas for roomboxes and will start working on a few of them. I will be posting several of my kits and houses for sale.
I have alot cleaned out and just need to organize alot more... I will be posting about my organization of the craft room as well.... Ive searched all over the net for pics of craft rooms of a miniaturist and there are not many. I am working on how I will display my houses as well... I'll share that as well.!
