Das Dorfpuppenhaus - Country Dollshouse

 

 

Das Dorfpuppenhaus (Country Dollshouse) is a new dollshouse magazine in Germany.

I was nosy about the first issue so I bought it.

 

Price: € 1,99 (but only the 1. issue...).

 

In each magazine is something (furniture, parts of the house.....) for the house.

In this magazine is also a curtain-tutorial.

 

Here you can see the house (click on the little tv for the YouTube Clip):

 

http://www.dorfpuppenhaus.de/

 

and here you can read the magazine (click on the right corner - below the word "Topflappen").

 

http://www.dorfpuppenhaus.de/das-magazin.asp

 

 € 1,99 is really a bargain for a dollshouse stove!!!

 

Have a nice day
