Martin1 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Some years ago I was given a very large unfinished dollhouse. I figured I would finish it off for my daughters, but I've come to realize I don't have the right disposition for it. Before it goes to the landfill, I'd like to try to re-home it. Looking for advice as to whether someone would be interested in it. Loads of parts, pieces, and small tools must go too. https://postimg.cc/QFBDxm5x https://postimg.cc/4HJZfTvr https://postimg.cc/njfpWmXV https://postimg.cc/RNYr8t8r https://postimg.cc/v46RdBF4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmandaJC Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Martin, I'm so glad your offering this house to a new home rather than the landfill! I'm sure quite a few get tossed which could have a new life. This one's beautiful, I hope it goes to a good home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid-life madness Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Don't toss it!!!! You can always post it on Craigslist...or contact your local NAME association. It is worth saving. https://miniatures.org/clubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Is that little table saw going with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felthen Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 What a great dollhouse. Someone has done some lovely work on it. I agree that it is worth saving and I am glad you decided to rehome it. Someone will enjoy that house a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fov Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Wow, beautiful house. Please don't throw it away! If you don't care about selling it, then putting it on Craigslist for free will probably make someone very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin1 Posted February 1, 2021 Author Share Posted February 1, 2021 Yes, the 4" table saw, and a variety of other tools will go with it. Dremel & bits, miniature lathe chisels, small paper cutter, etc. Also miscellaneous parts & pieces.... Unfinished Railings, moldings, hardwood flooring, little bricks, shingles, windows, & wall paper. I'd really like for it to go to someone who'd want to finish it. Originally I thought that person would be me, but I prefer woodworking in real life scale... the attention to detail and fine motor skills required to work in miniature are just not pleasurable for me. Mid-life madness -- thanks for the link to local clubs. I'm going to send an email shortly to one nearby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Island-Shack Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 That's quite a treasure for someone, I really hope that beautiful mansion doesn't end up in the landfill - the supplies either, they're valuable too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
