Here's a country island table that I made. I mixed colors that I had to create this hue. It has a soft creamy yellow tone to it. I think it adds a fall touch to my mini scene. Thank you for stopping by!<br />

<br />
I've been busy taking care of my boys, so I haven't posted in awhile. I do dabble in my miniatures with all this chaos. Lately I've been collecting dollhouse vintage items. I've been inspired by Cynthia's Cottage and Kim's Bakery, which I have displayed some of their lovely pieces in my photos. <br />
<br />

I stained the kitchen island in cherry. I was thinking of adding some color and distressing it, but I thinking I will hold off on that. I really do like the way it looks with all my simple white accessories. <br />

Here are some General Electric miniatures I found. I have to replace the broken faucet, but other than that it does add lovely charm to my home. <br />

A beautiful vintage hutch I also recently aquired. The quality of dollhouse vintage miniatures are so much better than current finds. The workmanship and detail they put in the past is exceptional. Wish they made new miniatures that way, but I guess that makes rare finds like this much more special. I'm debating whether or not to paint this one. <br />
<br />
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog! The picture below is a picture of my newest addition. Little Adam at 4 months. He's a whopping 17 pounds and so lovable! Have a wonderful weekend everyone!<br />

I have been MIA for awhile because of my pregnancy. Once I found out I was pregnant April of last year and I had all the first trimester woes hit me at once. Everything I loved to do made me nauseous, the outdoors, certain foods, and even my miniature dollhouse hobby. It was so weird and sad at the same time. I had to pack away and hide all my minis to keep the room from spinning. I defiantly had an inkling that I was going to have a boy. ;O)<br />
<br />
Last September while cleaning out the house to make room, I pulled out all my minis and my unfinished dollhouse. I told myself, if I don't finish it now I don't think I ever will with two boys running around. In September I slowly started to finish my project. I'd say it's very similar to all my other dollhouses. Shabby chic meets french country is my main focus here. I was going to do fall colors and give it a warm cozy feel, but I had purchased wallpaper back in April for spring. C'est la vie.<br />
<br />
I'm still decorating but here are a couple of pictures of the inside. The upstairs bedroom, which is my favorite part of the house, has a shabby chic/romantic feel. I love the picture of the wedding dress which was painted by <a href="http://www.cinderellamoments.com/">Caroline</a>. The lovely chair is from <a href="http://www.maritzaminiatures.com/">Mariza Moran</a>, which sits perfectly next to the dresser by <a href="http://cynthiascottagedesign.blogspot.com/">Cynthia</a>. Also sweet cake by <a href="http://littlethingsbyanna.blogspot.com/2012/12/a-merry-mini-christmas-dollhouse.html">Anna</a> and the beautiful cottage bed by <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/minieoriginals">Sandy</a>. The second picture below is a glimpse of the kitchen which I'm still working on. I hope to post more real soon! <br />
<br />
Also, I had my son in November. He's already 2 months and a whopping 14 pounds!!! I'm proud of my big baby boy! <br />

I had so much fun with this dollhouse that I've started a new one! It's going to be the Orchid from Greenleaf. I've already started sanding all the parts. <br />
<br />
I also wanted to share with you all that I found out I am pregnant with my 2nd today! I haven't really told anyone and don't plan to till my first trimester is over. It's so hard to keep it a secret, so I've decided to share it with you all! Have a wonderful Easter holiday to you and yours and may your lives be filled with happiness everyday!<br />

I saw some cabinets with the use of miniature chicken wire and thought it was a creative idea. I shopped around to find one and noticed that it's not easy to find and if I do, it's a bit pricey. So I did some brain storming and decided to decorate my own rustic cabinet for my shabby chic dollhouses. On this piece I stained it in a cherry finish, added some antiquing glaze to age, sanded it and then covered it with clear varnish. Gluing the aluminum caging was a bit tricky but not too hard. This is my first time to do this so excuse the imperfections. <br />
<br />
It's not completely finished. I still need to wallpaper the back and add some shelves, but so far this is what I have. It's been really fun making this piece and I've decided to work on another one. Updates and new cabinet photos to come. <br />
<br />
Thank you for stopping by!<br />

I'm honestly more of a fall/winter person, but for 2012 I will make an exception. This month "The Hunger Games" the movie will open. I have been a big fan of the trilogy since fall of last year. Reading is one of my other hobbies. I love books. They take me to another world.<br />
<br />
I'm currently reading the trilogy again and it's as good as the first time! As a fan and a miniature addict, I had to find "The Hunger Game" trilogy books down to scale. I successfully found someone that sells them as charms. I contacted the seller to asked if she could make them without the charm attachments. She kindly accommodated and here they are!<br />

I'm currently working on two dollhouses both are cottages. One is a "Greenleaf" brand and the other Real Good Toys. I decided to venture off to the "Real Good Toys" brand because I found so many reviews that stated it was sturdier and easier to build. It does cost a bit more. I purchased the least expensive in their line. It is called the "The Keeper's House." This one I've been slowly working on, adding small structural details in the house. I decided to put wallpaper, wood floors, and floor borders. I'm also planning on adding castings to the window and door. Here's some pictures of it.<br />

Thank you so much for stopping by and letting me share my fun hobby!Suzehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07227076071630429438noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7128663021763110035.post-71688227511390053092012-01-24T22:17:00.000-08:002012-01-24T22:18:56.563-08:00Hello World!So to start off, this is my very FIRST blog! I know I'm a bit behind but I've recently discovered a new hobby that I would love to share with the world, miniature dollhouse collecting. Ever since I was young I've always had an obsession with miniatures. Something about the way having everyday items shrunk down to a tiny scale just puts a smile to my face. Maybe it's the cute factor or the thought of being able to create my own world. <br />
<br />
It all started a week before Christmas 2011, I decided to get something for myself. Surfing through the web thinking of something creative and worthwhile to award myself with I stumbled upon dollhouses. The rush of excitement ran through me like a kid. I've always wanted a real dollhouse, but my family couldn't afford it. Well lucky me I found a dollhouse kit for just $29! From that click of purchase there on I've been obsessing and collecting miniatures/dollhouses. Here's my very first dollhouse I made.<br />

It took a lot of elbow grease to get it finished but the journey was fun! I learned a lot about tools I've never used before. I also learned about patience. This project takes time even for a small house. Here is what the house looks like without all the paint and glitz.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Isn't it just the cutest! The best part was decorating the house and furnishing it. Goodness the things you can find on the Internet. The pink cabinet I painted myself. It only cost $1 at Micheal's. What a deal</span>! <span style="font-size: small;">This is a Greenleaf brand dollhouse. It was a bit hard to put together because you had to sand almost all the edges and some parts didn't fit. But it was all worth it! I've already got two more dollhouses in the works. One is for my friend's daughter who is 3 and one for myself. I got myself the "Real Good Toys" brand because I heard that it's much more sturdy and easier to assemble. It does cost a bit more and doesn't look as cute but maybe a little paint and pizazz will bring it to life. I'm surely going to blog as I build this time! The small world I've created is fun indeed.</span></td></tr>
