First real day of sun in weeks, so I could finally clean the two boxes of second-hand furniture I got online in the past few months! One had a bunch of "Dollhouse Collector - Victorian" furniture, mostly okay but in serious need of dusting, and another was a big box of mixed stuff. I took a rag and vinegar/water to clean them (well, at first, then I lost patience and dunked the things directly into the mix). Everything is supposed to be 1/12, but I have a cupboard big enough for Barbies as well as a chair that can barely fit a plushie. One cupboard was a bit moldy ; I sprayed it with vinegar like if it was holy water. It looks better, but still discolored an ugly green... At least it's one I have in double. Also fun fact, one table was either painted with gouache or water-soluble stain and never varnished : the moment I dunked it in the basin, most color floated off... My hand is half reddish mahogany now, lol
