Here is my newest addition to my adventures in dollhouse making. My niece Vera was born in February, and I believe all little girls should have a fabulous dollhouse. I added working windows to both the Corona Concepts Dollhouse and the Corona Concepts Primrose addition. I am still working on the exterior door trim and hinges, so the patio is not fully attached yet. There was not enough light for the attic in the Laurel, and I wanted to make it into a little girl's bedroom. I also wanted there to be more light in the Primrose tok floor so I could make it into a baby nursery. With the extension there are seven rooms total instead of five. I still have to paint and attach the chimney. Vera's bedroom is in green, lavender and whites, so the house will be a perfect addition to the room!
I had leftover wallpaper from the Garfield Greenleaf Thumbelina. It was a wonderful way to recycle the leftover wall paper. I had to order some more stone floor paper for the kitchen and the flagstone on the patio.
There are tiny, purple and lavender roses in the window flower boxes. I used floral foam which I cut to size to fill in the boxes. This way the flowers are at a nice height.

The Kitchen in the Corona Concepts Primrose Extension.
The Master Bedroom in the Greenleaf Corona Concepts Laurel Dollhouse. I added a child friendly fireplace which seems to be very sturdy.
A lovely, little painting over the master bed fireplace. I have several more that will go in the house closer to completion.
I had leftover parquet flooring from the Garfield Greenleaf Thumbelina. I used it in the master bedroom around a silk/velvet velour insert for carpeting.
I added a balcony/railing in the little girl's room so no one would fall down the stairs :) Can't have accidents happening!

The foyer/living room. I added another fireplace to keep cold evenings warm and cozy! :) I had some leftover faux tin ceiling wallcovering from a project. This is human-sized. It worked quite nicely for the dollhouse. You can purchase it from the Home Depot. The picture over the fireplace features the Mackenzie Childs farmhouse in New York in a frame from one of the Corona Concepts furniture kits. I painted it with gold leaf.
The Greenleaf Corona Concepts Laurel dollhouse comes with stairs in the kit that have spaces between them. I added pink velvet to complete the stairs and add some extra color.
A pretty mural hunting scene in the dining room.
A pretty, ornamental cartouche.
A Bay Window
A child-friendly doll family for Vera to play with.
Outdoor lawn furniture for Vera's Dollhouse. I added lace and some white, cotton velvet to give the set a homey look. I made it from the Corona Concepts Patio Furniture Kit.
So cute! Every room is perfect, from the wallpaper, to the flooring, to the mural in the foyer. Love it!
