News Flash!!!

I've reached 300 sales in my etsy shop!

Many thanks to all of my customers! :)

New Acquisition or the New Kid in Town!

So, what a find is this?! I think this deserves a second chance, don't you? :)

Hubby is so good to rescue this for me. :)

He was afraid I was going to tell him to put it in the trash, but,

Nooooo! This has potential!

I'm thinking this is from the eighties given the choices in colors.

Shame it's missing a dormer, but, I bet I can find a replacement or find two new ones that match.

I'm not sure whether this was ever all wired up, or did the owner just give up at this point?

Which makes me think of my other house. See this blog post here.

Both houses do seem to have a lot of similarities, but that might just be because they are both traditionally styled homes.

Wiring is what has gotten hubby and I stumped with the first house, but, I am determined now to get both houses wired and finished.

Determined! lol ;)

I figure we can wire the first house with wires and the second house with tape.

Then we can compare the two and see which we like better.

Who knows, there could be a third house waiting around for me next year! lol ;)

Well, I don't think that I need another house at this point.

At least not until I make some progress with the two that I have now.

So, when wiring a house with wire, you have to wall paper, right?

Is it the same when you wire with the tape?

I had wanted to just paint the first house. But, I'm told you have to wallpaper to cover up the wires.

I am warming up to the idea of wall papering. The idea of doing it on poster board first, is helping me out with the thought of doing it.

We know who made this house, unlike the first house.

I think it looks very similar to this house here.

And, we know who the house was intended for. :)

Maybe I can reuse the initials in naming the house.

Any ideas?

The  cool part is that, now that I have two houses.... I can go forward with the ideas I had for decorating the first house and stop second guessing my decisions. Because I have another one to do different things with. :)

The ideas in the head are running amuck!

Late Breaking News!!!

This just in! lol

Hubby just trash picked a dollhouse for me! :)
Pictures and details to follow! ;)

(happy dance!)
