I love a good roombox: https://www.ebay.com/itm/174735984583

8k for an unfinished house???! I love it when they say "an empty canvas for you to decorate" - ok, but I'm not paying 8k for an empty canvas, folks. I want some art...

Is this a customized Artply Franklin? I like it. I love the interior door shot. https://www.ebay.com/itm/dollhouse-Vintage/184750434464

I appreciate the house more now that I read the article. He loved building it. I totally get it now.

Yes - thanks Fov - that was a nice article.

Definitely needs some aging - to dirty it up into an antique - https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/more-furniture-collectibles/childrens-furniture/19th-century-gothic-revival-walnut-swinging-cradle/id-f_7355513/ that real life version is darker, but caning is/was originally lighter in tone - and aged into a nice darker/grimier tone.

Did anyone else notice the indoor pool on the 50k house? Wow! Those were fun links! Winchester-mania!

I love that they flat out called that one house a Winchester. I love it. It's huge and looks to have 70s/80s interior. It's amazing.

This doorway piece seems lovely for $15: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1-12-Scale-Dollhouse-Wood-Arch-Kit/254930162676

When I was young (insert theme song) - I wanted the "Sounds like Home" dollhouse - mostly because it said it had a "frying bacon" sound in the kitchen, and "running water" sounds. I so wanted it - but alas, it was too much back in the day, And now here is on craigslist for $800 and it a whole lot more "too much" lol. Did anyone ever have this? I think it is best that it remains off limits for me - I think I might have been disappointed, I loved how realistic the furniture looked. Back then. https://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/tag/d/yamhill-sounds-like-home-dollhouse-nib/72843

Having experienced a 3 year old with a dollhouse, I'd actually recommend washable, removable contact paper. There will be food and liquids going into that house up until age 7 and that's if they opt to play with it (amazing how many kids are stuck to screens). And of course, you don't want to be in a "don't play with it like that" mode for a 3 year old, lol. -

For kids, I'd go with scrapbook paper like Lee said. There are packs of papers closer to your theme. Quality is great and the paper goes on smoothly. Otherwise, finding a real kids paper you like - shrinking it and printing it out - is an option. I print my own paper for a lot of special projects. -
Has anyone used this magnetic gluing jig?
