I'm in an Etsy Treasury! :)

This lovely treasury west was made by Snowfern, a real sweet gal from Singapore. She makes a lot of food items for the dollhouse and jewelry as well.

I love, love, love her rubber ducks! I have three duckies coming my way. :) To represent my puddle ducks, that even though are now older, still jump in puddles. :)

Oh, if you click on the title, it will take you to the treasury. :)

The Dollhouse with Furniture!

The first bedroom. The twin bedroom set fits in here just lovely. I even think the color of the walls and the wood furniture has a nice blend to it. Still wavering on what color this room will be. I want to be able to play and change things around, but, I don't want to end up with all of the interiors beige/cream/neutral.

My porcelain bathroom fixtures just fit in, I knew they would!
I'm thinking light pink for the walls, maybe some wainscotting. I really like the look of black and white tiles but, the wood flooring is so nice, I don't want to change it. Maybe a black and white floor cloth will do the job. This will be fun to accessorise. :) Back in the hallway there, is a half round table made by minibuilder his work is so fine and delicate.

This second bedroom may end up being green, but perhaps a just lighter shade. The metal bed I have had since childhood and I love it so much! It's broke on me so many times and yet, each time, hubby glues it back up for me. The shabby chic end tables were a custom order made by Jemjoop. I have plans to make some shabby chic stuff, maybe having the dollhouse will get me on that quicker. The round table was made by turningsin he makes some of his creations on a lathe, really impressive stuff! The little dresser I got online and plan to paint it shabby chic style, perhaps even decoupage it. It's not made real well, so the shabby chic will just fit it. :)

The kitchen/dining room. Well, I obviously have no furniture for the kitchen, lol. ;) But, there also isn't much room in this kitchen to begin with. I think a big stove on the right side wall, a sink under the window and a fridge is going to pretty much take up the entire space. They'll have to eat daily in the dining room.
The dining room has mix matched chairs and the little china cabinet fit in just right. But, I might be getting some new dining room tables and chairs from minibuilder so, it might look totally different later. The table, chairs and china cabinet are from childhood and I recently purchased the additional two chairs.

The hallway, not much in there now, huh? lol ;) I think a long skinny table in the hall with two ottomans under it and two lamps sitting on it, a coat rack and an umberella stand, maybe a potted plant. Definitely lit garland for the holidays. Did you know you can buy strings of Christmas lights? I think that is so cool!

Okay, not much furniture in the living room! It really does look like someone just moved in! I love the firepace, I got that on line. I had one before, but, some dog ate it. :( So, I already had the fireplace tools and andilirons and fire wood. I have a pottery piece holding the firewood. The grandfather clock is from childhood. The end table I bought on line. And the side tables I got from minibuilder. I really like his work, can you tell? lol ;)
I'm itching to do something with the dollhouse, but apparently you have to wire it first. :( I deemed Sundays to be dollhuse day, but hubby is not cooperating. He thinks Sunday is gardening day. The mamoth size leaves peeking in the dollhouse windows are his cucumber plants.
I think he seriously needs to consider what is really important on Sundays. ;)

I snagged one!

I got a treasury on etsy, it lasts til Monday night, so check it out here, before it disappears. :)

It features my team mates from TeamMIDS, Miniatures in Dollhouse Scale. It was easy to make such a lovely collection, given that I had so much to choose from.

Search teamMIDS on etsy when you are looking for quality scale dollhouse miniatures.
