Large Dollhouse

Neither cottage or castle my latest dollhouse that was handmade 38 years ago by a very talented builder.  No rooms inside have been finished so it will keep me busy working on that.

Large Tudor Dollhouse





This dollhouse, which I hope to turn into a Tudor mansion or Tudor castle, is too big to get into a picture, so part is cut off.  I haven't started on the inside and need to design wings and so forth.

Matryoshka or Russian nesting dolls

I have been collecting  Matryoshka or Russian nesting dolls because they are so very lovely, but they yield super tiny doos, as you can see this picture.  The two smallest dolls work fine in 1:12 scale. Perhaps I will try making one myself, but gosh the tiny doll wouldn't be easy.

Another garage sale dollhouse

I couldn't resist this inexpensive dollhouse at a garage sale.  It will take some work to fix a few things, and it certainly needs steps to the porch.

Large Stained Glass window for a castle

This is a stained glass Gothic window wall fountain and the glass window measures a foot.  Although it has a variety of uses, I admit I like this as is, but eventually I'll get a room built for it in the castle.

Handmade dollhouse from thrift

No, I have no idea what I'll do with it but yet another thrift bargain.  It was filled with many pieces of handmade wooden furniture, so I thought that was pretty nifty.  I have always liked the idea of a front-opening dollhouse though.
