I'm still working on my 'bedroom redo'...
......OK I'm slow, old and slow.
Wanted to show you my vintage metal/tin dollhouse Kathy Sue gave me for my birthday back in March...
Milt hung it on the wall so I could fill the little rooms with 'stuff'...
On to the next project...
Monica is going to help me mosaic a fireplace mantel for this bedroom.
; -)
I love my dollhouse Kathy Sue!














Well Tina I have all the Renwal doll furniture,the mom,dad,sister,brother and
twin babies,plus a sewing machine, washing
machine, and the mantel clock etc. to go
with your house. Yep another collection.
I love your idea putting it on the wall
and putting really neat stuff in it. If
I can mosaic you can, it's fun, messy but
fun. I can't wait to see more of that
really cute room.":O)

Hey I just spotted the watch hanging from the bedpost. I like that. Becky from Sweet
Cottage Dreams had one hanging from her
lamp and I thought that was a cute idea too.
I like your pillow sham too.":O)

I love this idea and love that you are decorating it without the furniture, but with big girl treasures! Cute cute cute!!!

Oh Tina! I alarmed the dog w/my scream! I had that dollhouse!!!! That very one! I used it for a bird feeder for many years & of course it is now long gone!
This is a very, very creative use for one. . . . I LOVE IT!

What a great idea! I am going to be on the lookout for dollhouses now to hang on the wall! Yesterday was my first time on your blog and I spent a lot of time looking at the beautiful home you've created and what talent you have! I also needed to make a dessert yesterday and ran across your Chocolate Cobbler dessert..WHOA NELLIE! I thought I'd died and gone to heaven! And I'm not even one of those chocolate junkies but that dessert is definitely scrumptious! Thank you so much! It made my day yesterday! It's a "keeper" for sure!

PS - LOVE the song you have playing!

What an amazing idea!! Never would I have thought of that!
Now I'm on the hunt for an old dollhouse. I've probably passed many without a second glance. Kitchen, porch, bathroom...it could go anywhere.
Cheers!

You are too tricky! Very clever way to display a doll house.
REALLY looking forward to seeing all of your room!

I had a metal dollhouse back in the 60's but mine was a one story ranch. I still remember the wonderful plastic furniture. So much fun I had with it.
