My dining room is about complete now. All the wallpapering is finished and the flooring laid. I've put in this wooden fireplace with an overmantle which would have been popular in this type of house. As mentioned in an earlier posting I added a french door to this room. In the photos you can see the completed room with the french door and a window alongside. Notice the view through the open doorway into the hallway beyond....
This is lovely, so realistic :)
ReplyDeleteHello
ReplyDeleteIve just found your blog via a search on mountfield dolls house, im thinking of getting it, i have fairbanks but it is too big to build in our little cottage at the mo, fliss xx
Hello,
ReplyDeleteJust stumbled across your blog. I too love building dollshouses - but haven't had mine out since we moved here 2 years ago - into a 1930's house, just like Mountfield! It's been fascinating to see how you've done the inside - our hallway still has the panelling on the side of the stairs that you've put in, and we have a pantry under the stairs (although access is from the kitchen). You're right about the back door - ours is in a direct line from the front door.
I've been tempted frequently to get the Mountfield - the house opposite (and that I can see while I'm typing) is almost identical in appearance still!!
In three weeks time, our new (fullsize) kitchen will be in - and then I will get my houses out of their packing cases and get on with them instead - SO much more satisfying!!
Hi, this is a gorgeous house - wow. Please can you tell me which brand of wood stain you used in the hallway for the stairs and cupboard effect? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThis is looking amazing! I really want a Mountfield so I'll be following this blog for inspiration. *fingers crossed for christmas* lol.
ReplyDeleteHi, I just discover your blog, and it's a pleasure to follow your blog, you dollhouse is very nice ! I bought the same kit there is already a moment (box is under my bed ;) and it waits for the end of my actual project. I'm impatient to see more about your work.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day,
Marie
Your house is so wonderful! I love that era and you are capturing it perfectly! I hope you post again soon and let us see the finished rooms!
