fov Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Sorry, American Craft has been out of business for a long time. What pieces are missing? I'm not familiar with the Country Lady, so I googled it and found these instructions on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/155347338798 (I'm including the pictures here since the auction will go away at some point.) This seems like a variation on American Craft's Victorian dollhouse. Once the "optional tower" is added, it looks very similar to the Victorian (but a mirror image). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodentraiser Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 The Country Lady is just a smaller version of the Victorian house that ACP made. The company started under the name Carlson's, so if you look for any building components for them, make sure to look under ACP, American Craft Products, and Carlson's. The other thing to remember is their staircases are only 2 1/2" wide. Staircases you buy today are 3" wide, so if you are using anything but an ACP staircase, your stairwells will need to be widened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carole Brennan Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Hello I’m looking for anyone who is building or built a house. Mine is the American Craft Victorian that I’m still working on after 30yrs. I’m just searching for a dollhouse friend that we could share our problems with. Had a terrific shop here in Illinois that sadly closed. I’m not aware of another like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG68 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I worked for them back in the 1980's and I made that kit. Anything you need kan be easily made if you have a table saw and a router. I am selling the one I made. And I have many extra pieces. Tell me what you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Received as a kid, built with dad, picked up again after his passing and my aging. I joined this forum and pulled away. Not interested in procrastinating any longer. Curious to see your house status and progression. Here's an image of mine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
