"Heating" for small victorian cottage? by Cathy Weeks
As soon as it arrives, I'm building the RGT Victorian Jr. Out of curiosity, how would such a small cottage have been heated? Fireplace? Wood stove? Etc? How were the bigger victorians heated? My dollhouse was destroyed in a fire last fall (it was assembled and finished, but not furnished)...

I broke the rules by Millie
I guess I broke the rules of this group by using the "for Sale" term, it was never my intention to cause a problem, I only wanted to offer some of my 66 years worth of expertise to someone who wanted it. SPAM is something I never associated with myself until now, I have given many free hours of my...

How do you do cane-bottomed chairs in mini? by Cathy Weeks
One of the projects I'm playing with is recreating my parent's antique dining-room table. It had rose-backed chairs that went with it, and the seat bottom was cane-bottomed. How do you do that in miniature? Cathy Weeks

Thrift Shop images by Herb
We built a little store front as a thrift shop - this gives us a place to put all kinds of things that otherwise might not find an immediate home, including cannisters with broken or no lids, odd household decorative pieces, and on and on. It also serves as a place to go to find things for other...

Book recommendations by Cathy Weeks
Hi all, I'm looking for some book recommendations. 1. What are the best books for building minis? I'm interested in recreating certain pieces of my parents antiques, so I'm interested in more overall how-tos rather than plans and specific projects. Are the "Cabinet Maker" guides good? Is there...

spray primer by Cathy Weeks
A housepainter used a spray primer when we hired him to paint the trim on our (full-sized) house. It was quick and easy (don't remember the brand). Has anyone used it on a dollhouse? And what were their results? Cathy Weeks

Ok, I thought I'd give you a bit of background now that many of you have answered my zillions of questions. :-) My mother went to dental school when I was 9 years old, and the summer I was 10 (1979) she had to spend that summer in school. It was our first summer that she wasn't going to be...
