And the House Becomes a Home...


As you can see the decorating has begun.  I have the major pieces in place and it is now time to make curtains, and add those little touches that help make a house a home.  The kitchen cupboard needs dishes and maybe some fruit for the little silver plate.  The livingroom needs a reading lamp, and the bed needs pillows and a coverlet.

Notice the little visitor on the railing...

The bench for ready for the garden.

The neighbors have come to pay a visit.  It must be a very chilly day.

The mail box is hung and the vines have begun to wrap the porch rails.


These little pots (1" tall) will hold plants to flank the porches.

And as you can see the coach has arrived at the house could he be bringing news from a far off friend?

And the house begins to become a home!

How crafty and creative you are! I dearly love a dollhouse. Is it for someone special in your life?

Msrobin,
Believe it or not it is for me! I guess the whole process tickles the little girl in me. I had a tin dollhouse as a little girl and always thought it would be fun to have a pretty one. I will play and enjoy the creative process for now and in time it may find a home with a deserving little girl!

Oh how cute!! I would love to decorate that bed with a little crocheted blanket and a few teeny tiny crocheted throw pillows.
