New Toy

Friends had this dollhouse sitting in their basement for a long time and decided to get rid of it. It needs a good cleaning, some repairs, and parts put back on. It's real sturdy. Appears to be 3/8 " plywood. Whoever started it had put some money into it because it's got some nice staircases, wiring, etc. I have several pieces that need to be put back on...some trim, the porch, a window. Also need to replace a window or two and repair/replace the door. This house is at least as large as my Bellingham.



It's built in the English style of being front-opening. Lots of pieces of furniture in it that were made from kits. One thing I like about the English style is that there is lots of wall space unbroken by windows. Easier for placing furniture. The rooms are quite deep, too.



The front of the roof opens to access three rooms upstairs.

After I get it cleaned, I plan to paint the outside, then go from there. Hmmm, I just thought...I should check the bottom to see if the builder signed & dated it and put the name of it on. (I do that to all the houses I build)

After posting the above, I had Dale help me turn it over to see whether it was signed or not. Yahoo! It was!
