3. The Whirlybird Dollhouse

   I'm unsure what make or model she is, but since she had a lazy susan on her bottom, that's what I'll call her for now!

9. Remodel of my grandfather's build

   This is my first attempt at any remodel or build. My grandfather built this house for me when I was little and I've been wanting to work on it for a long time. I'm so glad I finally decided to work on it, it has been so much fun so far. I'm figuring things out and learning as I go!

12. Miniatures "Things" I've made

    My real life favorite pieces of furniture
    replicated in 1:12 scale. I made them the way I wished they looked in real life.
    Also many everyday items of things in my house that I use all the time...like the cross stitch cushion that's on my real life rocking chair.....my Da Vinci Accordion and case, it doesn't make music but the bellows really work,
    real leather shoulder straps with working buckles and leather wrist strap and working snaps used to keep the bellows locked..
    The telescope and tripod are based on the first telescope I had...the tripod legs are adjustable..the telescope is just like the real thing...it angles up and down and rotates 360 degrees....oh and of course it has real glass lenses, the eye pieces can move in or out for better focus and the spotting scope works too!

13. Lawbre Shadow Cliff Victorian (my second build)

    I am so happy I was able to adopt my dream dollhouse from a nice couple from Tennessee.  The Lawbre Shadow Cliff shell was built in 1985.  It had a few things that need fixing, but is in fantastic shape overall! I am excited to start turning it into the beautiful lady it was meant to be.

14. 1/6 scale Guilded Age ILLUSION room box

    Had LINEN cabinet using as curio.  Kept thinking it would make a great room box by TURNING the cabinet on its SIDE.    Since the cabinet is holding the TV, minimum 1" square dowels were placed in cabinet to support weight.  Top shelf was stationary and has dowels glued so now unable to remove it.  Plan will work with that 1st left area being an entrance/stairwell.  Took out all shelves to the right and that will be a large narrow room.  Since windows and doors do not open to outside diorama, scenes will be put in doors and window areas for realism.  Hope you will FOLLOW progress on this about 1880-1890 1/6 scale scratch build items Guilded Age project.

15. The Pierce Garage Sale Find and Kit Instructions

    Hubby came home with it....The thing is hugh on the outside and tiny on the inside...I have a few things to say about it,  but  Ill just say that  it wasn't designed for a child to play with  that's for sure.
    I tore out the ugly staircase, and all the archways in order to create more "living space".   The bathroom/bedroom wall design must have been an after thought when someone realized that it was impossible for an adult to see down the other end of the bedroom, so they pushed it back a tiny bit for a child sized head to fit in there.   Adult or child,  doesn't matter when it comes to using your hand in that space....there is only room for one hand, your right hand only. 
    Anyway the house is impressive to look at from the outside......5 bay windows is a bit much.
    The house came with the kit box full of remaining pieces and the Instructions to build it.
    I scanned the instructions and uploaded them in case someone might be looking for them.
    I also still have the pages showing all the pieces and I will be happy
    to scan them and add them to this album if someone needs them...
    Just let me know if you do.  ;o)

16. New Orleans Shotgun Houses

    I purchased two of these 4 inch deep house fronts with an idea of turning them into Shotgun houses.  Each will have a different front porch area, but will reflect the homes of New Orleans.

18. SIR GODFREY'S CASTLE

     I found this great little prefab castle which folds together; at Michael's, marked down to $6.25- minus its drawbridge!  Working it 1:24 
    2024 update:  I have not been diligent working on this.  Honestly, hardly thought about it for a few years.....    I did finish the stained glass windows and some trim.  The kit did not come with the drawbridge, it has a gaping hole on which I have been deliberating.   I wanted a stately bed, but the rooms are so small.

19. Stairway for the McKinley (Turned Kit)

    I decided a while back to do my own built-in for the Staircase in the McKinley. I recently formalized the design and made a kit. I will be doing the same for my built-in kitchen cabinetry in the McKinley as well as the Beacon Hill. I hope to design more 'after-market" built-ins that economize the footprint of each room of a variety of dollhouses. But I started with my already-made stairway that includes step storage, an elegant fireplace, and a china cabinet.

23. The Unknown Colonial

    I forget when this arrived in my hands as a kid, but it's the main culprit of why the OG Orchid was left in disrepair for so many years...
    The Unknown Colonial was in MUCH better, ready-to-decorate condition at that time, so it received most of my playing focus. However, it and the OG Orchid were retired to my Dad's barn when I "outgrew" them (turns out, to some degree, you never outgrow things you enjoy), and there they suffered.
    Now that the OG Orchid is being revived, I figured this one should get some TLC as well. Here we go!

24. Penelope Renovation (KidKraft)

    I saw this well loved dollhouse on the side of the road; it was waiting for the garbage truck. It looked like good bones, so I picked it up. I decided to challenge myself to create a whole new look using the materials I have on hand to renovate this house. The only things I might have to buy are basics like white primer and glues. I think I'm going to get a long string of fairy lights to electrify (another purchase), and I might need more siding. Okay, so already I'm buying stuff. So maybe if I just keep costs to a minimum....
