Little dollhouse on the prairie
Mar 24
Some of you may remember when I posted in December about the giant dollhouse project. At the time we had hoped to have it finished by Christmas, or soon thereafter. Well… it’s now March, and it’s finally finished!
Thinking back at how naive we were to think we could have it finished by Christmas is rather amusing. We had no idea what this project would entail, obviously. I don’t want you to get the impression that Mark worked on building it continuously through these last couple of months, because that is certainly not the case. There were long gaps during which the dollhouse sat gathering dust in the basement. But, it was a lot of work. In case you would ever consider building one, you should be aware that it’s like building a real house. The results make it almost worth it though. Mom added the icing on the cake by making curtains and adding flowers to the window boxes. We hope Hannah will enjoy it
Gorgeous! Now, how about pictures of the inside. My youngest daughter would love one of these, but she’ll have to be happy with her Barbie house for now.
I love it! I would have loved it as a kid! When I was little my favorite book was called “A Decorator in the Dollhouse.” It was about making dollhouse furniture and otherwise creating realistic looking dollhouse scenes.
That is so gorgeous… design, colour… everything!
I saw a program on miniatures last night. You’ll have to do the inside next.
