Good evening all!

Hello, my name is Cindy. My first taste of miniatures is when I was a teenager my Mom bought me a 10 room Victorian which I built and decorated myself. I don't recall what happened to the house but I kept all of the furniture. A couple of years ago I bought my step-daughter a Dura-craft Hillsdale and I was hooked all over again. I acquired a vintage Duracraft Victorian mansion, which is complete, all but finishing the lighting and decorating. I will download some pictures of these two soon. I recently picked up the vintage Duracraft Shenandoah, but I am desperately searching for the directions. It is the SD185. I was able to get the directions for the SD187, but they are different. So if anyone out there can help, it would be greatly appreciated. I am dying to get started.

I would also like to say that I have viewed alot of the member's galleries and I am absolutely blown away at the creativity that you all have displayed. You are an inspiration.

Thanks,

Cindy in Texas

Hi and welcome! I definately want to see pic's of your victorian mansion! I have the kit but it will be quite awhile before i get to building it. It's really hard to find pic's of one that has been built however. ;)

Hi Cindy,

Welcome to the neighborhood! ;) I'm so glad that your passion for dollhouses was rekindled. What a wonderful hobby to share with your step daughter. I think it's probably the best family hobby I've run across :lol: Of course I could be a wee bit prejudiced toward it (Who me?? No way! ;) LOL) Anyway welcome to the forum, looking forward to seeing some of your houses and I hope you find the instructions you need. I haven't picked up a Shenandoah. I took a look under "Questions about a Particular House" and then did a quick search there for Shenandoah and found someone else who needed the instructions. It looks like there's a member who has them but I don't remember her so I'm not sure if she' an active member still - here's a link to the thread and you can try to PM her if you like. Or you might have to repost and ask again and hopefully someone will have them :lol: Hope this helps some
