'Bettiscombe' dolls' house made in England ca.1870
A lovely paper doll from The Delineator magazine from 1912. The sheets are quite big since magazines used to be bigger, 10 and half inches by 15 inches. The wrap around feature is a nice touch and adds a 3D element. I only have the doll page for my collection and the other dresses are from my interent downloads. If you are the original owner of the scans, please let me know so I can credit the orignal source.

I just finished a commission for Linda. It's a half scale custom dollhouse English style. It has an oval base. And I left room for Linda to put her potting shed and garden set. The little fairy door inside the dollhouse. The stone chimney has flowering vines. The interior is well aged and cozy. This is the kitchen. The old fireplace is the space for Linda's Aga stove. Living room. The rose wallpapered bedroom. And a bathroom. Thanks Linda for the project! Linda will send pictures once she's all done decorating Miss Read's Cottage. And I'll share them with all of you. She's already made some purchases that are out of this world cute! Thanks for stopping by!

Idag tänkte jag visa hur det har gått med mitt glasspinne golv. Igår var jag på pysselträff hos min fina vän Elin, och nu är äntligen golv lagt i hela övervåningen av huset! Bara att måla och lacka kvar. Nedervåningen är dock redan klar och jag tänkte visa hur jag gått tillväga för att lägga trägolv i mitt Lundby hus. Glasspinnarna har jag köpt på ÖoB, tror jag betalade 14:90/100 pinnar. Till hela huset har jag använt nästan 4 förpackningar, det går betydligt mer än man tror! Jag började med att klippa bort de rundade ändarna. Du behöver en bra sax eller tång till detta. Använder du sax, ta för giver att du inte kommer att kunna använda den till mycket annat efteråt :) Min funkar numera på trä och papper men är värdelös i tyg och klarar inte av att klippa av en sytråd... Men till trä är den toppen! Klipp sedan några av pinnarna i varierande längder för ett snyggare och mer naturligt trägolv. På vissa ställen i huset klistrade jag fast ett cardstock i samma storlek som rummet för att enkelt kunna ta bort eller ändra på golvet om något skulle gå fel. På övervåningen gick jag lite ifrån denna princip, då jag fått in tekniken. Sedan är det bara att börja limma. Jag använde Karlssons klister. Det är inte lätt att bestämma tapeter men ett smart knep är att använda sig av sina scrappapper för att bestämma färg/mönster. När du vet vilka färger och vilken stil du är ute efter kan du börja leta tapet, papper, eller skriva ut egna mönster. Mer om mina tapetval kommer senare! För att mer naturtroget golv spikade jag små hål i brädorna för att simulera spikhål. Dags att måla! 3 lager färg med vanlig vit snickerifärg + torktid. När detta var torrt lackade jag hela golvet med vattenbaserat lack för ett mer hållbart och glansigt resultat. Tada! Vad tycks om min nya röda soffa? Kan berätta att den inte är röd längre.. :) Bilder på förvandlingen kommer senare! Är det någon mer än mig som håller på att renovera Lundby hus eller dockskåp?
Finally the pattern is typed up - done in a hurry though so apologies if there are any mistakes. download now
Dolls' house known as Miss Miles House made in England in 1890
Hansel and Gretel Story and Playbook by Wonder Books features a lovely set of paper dolls. The base dolls are on the back of the book and 4 pages (2 pages per doll) are inside. The book also has the story, games, and other paper toys. My copy is missing the cut out ginger bread house :( or I would have included it here as well.This was published in 1954.
You have all been waiting so long for this and now I finally have the pleasure of letting you know it is ready for your doll making hands.
