A house for the pigeons







A little house for my pigeons...this was a special project by Sylvia Beuker(http://lutjeboudel.punt.nl) for our online dollshouse club. I think the little house is perfect for the garden of my Buttercup dollshouse.....

A romantic box for my French house




I have done this box for my French house. It was an online workshop by Marie-Louise.
Here you can find the printie:

I used the printie also for my paravent in the "Baby Shabby Chic Boutique"

My first dollshouse / a photo of me



I found a photo of me and my first wooden dollshouse. I am the girl in the red shorts (oh dear - about 5 years old). The other girl is my cousin Christine.
My cousin was the first owner of the house. Later my Dad renovated the house for me (new wallpaper, carpet, roof windows....).
The quality of the photo is not so good. As you can see the photo is from the seventies

Nostalgic carousel




I have finished the little paper carousel. I used a lot of brown paint so it looks really old. I am not 100% satisfied which the result. I will put it in an antique shop or attic.
Here is the link for the paper carousel:
