The Generosity of Strangers...

After this post, I had an unexpected generous and kind offer of wooden doll house items to help furnish the abode. With nothing asked for in exchange, we were gob-smacked to receive this big and beautiful package.....

Jen is a big star in our house! Many, many thanks.

Master 6 is tickled pink that in our big house there is a doll house that has its own dollhouse! It causes great amusement. Miss 2 runs around with the Grandfather clock saying: "tick, tock, dock, mouse, down, one-one, dock, clock", which I find rather cute, and altogether we are very spoiled!

The renovations of the doll house are planned, with the lacy curtains gone, and new floor coverings planned. The current floor is felt, which is nice and soft, but perhaps a little dusty. What about carpet squares? Any suggestions?

This site has lots of wallpaper options that we will explore. I can't bring myself to touch the walls just yet, as they are so lovingly done. I will find some printable floors for doll houses for the reno though - they are hard to locate through google though!

Thanks again Jen - your generosity really touched us. We are measuring the figures for a bit of wardrobe though - and dolly-quilts have been ordered too! I will be busy...

"Yay Mummy, house!!"



This was declared by Miss 2 at Vinnies today. She had spied with her little eye the most beautifully-made doll house. It came home in the car and she almost wanted to sleep in it tonight! We will renovate a little though... New curtains for a start! Yay! House!!
