French dollhouse

The Miniature French House added a new photo.

We're done with "Somewhere in France" dollhouse! This is a commission for Sharon in Australia. This house has a long trip home! This house is 24" across x 24 1/2" tall without the chimneys. The chimneys are a couple of inches tall and are not glued on for shipping. And it's 21 1/2" deep + 3" or so for the front porch floor which is also not glued on so the house can fit in the box. This is a side door into the kitchen. Living room with working fire. Entry hall. View from front door towards…

My French Dollhouse, The Petite Maison, is a work in progress. The exterior is looking so much more French now! This is the dollhouse how I found it at the consignment shop. It was nicely built from plywood, with the exterior painted, but not much else. When I saw it, I thought the roofline looked very French, and I could modify the house to give it that Frenchy look. I also knew I needed to replace the railing system that was on the little roof deck area. ( Inspiration: a real French…

I have to admit, this has been a strange week. My usual schedule; my comfort schedule, has purposefully been altered. This is the longest I've gone without sharing a blog post in the last almost 5 years. (Even when I've been in the hospital I've managed to get my hands on my computer) It felt a little like mourning, a little like freedom. But either way it's something I knew I had to do. I said I'd post when I had something interesting to share with you all, and right now even though I have…

A special little project for Christmas was this half scale dollhouse. It's called Sunday House. I usually work in 1 inch scale(1/12) and have only created a few half scale dollhouses. I wanted to see if my Paris style houses could be converted to 1/2 scale easily. I think it was successful! This particular dollhouse is not available for purchase as it was made for someone. But I hope to make another one for my Etsy shop soon.

I finished putting the tile roof on the dollhouse and I aged it. I had the idea of having a lot of mortar stuffed between the tiles. I think it looks very rustic. I also gave the plaster a couple of coats of the paint. It's a very yellow cream color. It looks like margarine. I am going to age this paint later. I painted the inside plaster the same color.

In my previous post I wrote that the new house I am working on will consist of a series of roomboxes which will eventually form one big h...
