Elsbeth Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Good point KathieB - if a Genie grants me this wish, I'll need to remember to include "all the collections in the fine miniature museums", plus my previous listed items, plus a giant house to contain them in. If I'm going to make a magical grab, it should be everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now THAT'S a job I could love! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriJohn Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I want one of those Joseph P. Angel houses. I'd also like a Lawbre Rosedawn. I have a Newport, Thornhill, and Painted Lady (for my daughter), from RGT. I like what I've got and that's really all I will ever need and have room for. Always wanted a grand house and wanted the Rosedawn but now that I have the Thornhill it kind of checks off that grand house idea for me. I have a house in the box from Greenleaf but forgot what it's called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sable Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I had no idea that Pottery Barn had dollhouses. They are built for children play. What I think is cool about them is that they are named after the towns I lived near in western Connecticut. And represent the typical structures you would see in those towns. http://www.potterybarnkids.com/m/search/results.html?words=dollhouses&N=0&itemsPerPage=15 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Since I now have the Emerson Row awaiting to be built allready, I think the Glencroft and the GL towns are on My "want" list. hugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caseymini Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I want the 8million dollar doll castle! It originally lived in a dollhouse shop in Sedona, AZ. I saw it several times and never dreamed that it would be valued with that price tag! Of course I would want all of the extra furniture that goes with it! http://www.astolatdollhousecastle.com/gallery/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debsrand56 Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Because I am so new to this, almost any new house would (will) be fun and exciting for me. However, I have a serious lust for Lady Jane's greenhouses (with all the furnishings, of course). http://www.ladyjane.com/roomboxes.htm The winter garden from her gallery would be nice. . . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minilover62 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I would love to have this house, so badly that I am seriously thinking about trying to cut it myself. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Oh, my! Except for all the pink, that is one seriously gorgeous house! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sable Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 It's interesting to actually see a dollhouse done in the old Mizner style and color typically found here in Boca Raton and Palm Beach. Great find minilover62. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minilover62 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I like this house so much that if I could have it, I wouldn't even mind the pink!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxxie2 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I dream of the Beacon Hill but I have no space to work on it. I also don't think I could even get it together with my dyslexia it looks overwhelming. If someone built the shell for me I would happily decorate it! I can dream can't I? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one seriously fabulous house. Who made that? I think I've seen that somewhere before online - I remember it because it's so different but so classic. It reminds me of the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. Same shade of pink and vintage tropical elegant or old Hollywood. I'm going to imagine Lana Turner or someone like that lives there!

Gee, thanks Deb! I do need to finish that house. I'm not a collector, just a builder. Although I have seen many amazing examples of houses (most of them here in our forum), I think my eccentric side comes out when I look at possible houses to translate into 1:12 scale. The Tudor was my attempt to build a house that was borderline practical in terms of size, but also modern so I could experiment with styles and details that you wouldn't see in a traditional Tudor. If space and money were no object, I would build Casa Loma, a 1:12 scale luxury yacht with a cut-away side exposing all the rooms, or an Arthur Rutenburg home that opened up like a puzzle, so all of the rooms and exterior elevations would be visible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debora59 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Its beautifully designed with captivating character. The exterior captured my heart, especially the tall windows and shape of the house, and then of course the grandeur of the interiors. It shaped my expectations and raised the bar for all other houses. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
