Wiltshire Cottage is my newly completed dollhouse. This one is totally English in style. The front porch area is really typical of those stone cottages you see in Europe. The house is battery operated. It has a front porch light, a living room chandelier and working fireplace, a kitchen chandelier and pantry light, a bedroom chandelier, a bathroom chandelier, a studio chandelier and 2 attic lights. There's a mix of stones and bricks on the facade. All in very muted tones. All made with premix concrete. This house is bigger then my usual little cottages. It's 25 3/4"(65.4cm) across x 25 1/2"(64.7cm) tall x 17 1/2"(44.5cm) deep. The left side is stucco and shingles. And the right side has vertical siding. Inside, I have not glued anything down. I used Simply Tacky to keep everything in place. In the living room, I made 2 upholstered chairs, a sofa, 3 little tables, a chandelier, artwork, rug, glitter houses. There's a roaring fire too. The curtains are stiffened with hairspray. The little closet under the stairs has a working door. The kitchen is all decked out with cabinets, range, table, chair(the only piece purchased in this kitchen), shelves, food, utensils and a fully stocked pantry. Everything in the pantry is glued down. There's also a working light in the pantry so you can see the food. Right up the stairs is the bedroom. I painted a blue dress, made a white bench chair. I made a double bed since the space was so big. There's a primitive style bench made from scraps of wood, a hand painted rug and a little hat box. On the other side, I built a little desk from a kit by The House of Miniatures. Next to the bedroom is the bathroom. I bought a tub, sink and toilet. I painted the toilet seat pink. I added a bathmat and sink rug. No bathroom would be complete without toilet paper! I squeezed in a little studio to get all those art projects done. The attic has plenty of old junk like TV, Christmas decorations, toys... There are 2 lights in the attic and .... a little mouse. Thank you so much for coming over and visiting Wiltshire Cottage! It's been a pleasure having you. Wiltshire Cottage is available for purchase in my Etsy shop.
Have some wallpaper left after the renovation? Don’t throw it away! If it has a nice print, I got a lot of ideas to give it a use around your home!
