Hi Does anyone have information on the dates of Doll's House exhibitions/fairs in the South East of England. Thanks Sue

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 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...

This work in progress is #11 of 14 dollhouses this size that I have built over the years, I am currently refurbishing this house to its former glory and have filled it with some of my vast collection of miniatures. I will offer it for sale in the future, when I have finished the restoration, it is...

If a quite reader has any voice, I think that would be a good addition. Patrick (a man who would have a red rear if he rode naked on a Harley) You know that I had to say something also? (Big Grin) Dawn wrote in message ... Well....

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

The sixties were good. But tell me, what is your favorite time to model / represent? Patrick Carol wrote in message ... "Pam" wrote in message

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...

I plan to replace the windows on the front of the Thornhill with working mullioned windows. But the only ones I've found are from Lawbre - at a cost of $20 a pop. Are there any that are cheaper? I've found working windows (non mullioned) and I've found mullioned windows (non working). But...

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...

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

My mom got her Wooten desks written up in the March issue of Dollhouse Miniatures! I am proud to say that not only did I get her started in miniatures a million years ago, but I'm also the one who got her going on the desks. I have the dogwood desk (the light colored one in the photo), and have...

Hi,do you know if it possible to get a plan to build a victorian doll house ?I want to build it form scratch but do not want to use a kit. Many thanks, vsintes

Hi, can anyone tell me where I might find miniature bowties? I saw some silverware for a wedding party and the bride's group had little veils on the forks, knives, and spoons, and the groom's group had tiny black bowties on the silverware. I have not been able to find the bowties anywhere. ...

How do you simulate whitewash? Watered down white paint? 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...

If you don't have access to power tools . . . Instead of getting a large sheet that you would have to cut multiple times to come up with the correct widths, buy a few pcs. cut to the width and then you would only have to cut the lengths. The precut Midwest lumber Basswood strips range in price...
