The Doll House Do up # 7 trillion and 13

"It's time to light the lights, it's time to turn the music up, it's time to get things started on the dolly house show tonight"

Except no.

It's not finished and, the I'm a Giant Challenge deadline has been extended (probably to Feb 1st). 

Yes! Phew! etc. 

I bet your all making a collective "on no, more months of tedious updates" groan

YES! and here's the latest.

                     I'm too tired to make much commentry, so I'll just play some muzak in the background.

"Chestnuts roasting by an open fire"

"Jack frost nipping at your nose"

The oven door still needs a bit of work: recess the hinges so it looks less retarded, and paint the door more so it looks less like a dishwasher. Sink prised from a second hand dolly sink I chopped up. This 'little' project was labour intensive to say the least and I'm glad its over and I can just fanny around with little cute stuff now the hard works done!

"I know it's been said"

The bench is a self contained unit so Claud can play house and move it around.

Before

 

"Many times many ways"

Nearly after

"merry chritsmas, to youuuu"

Fridge-from rescued from landfill damaged dolly wardrobe thingy; in need of a door handle, shelves and food

"Jingle bells"

Yes, the bath finally dried. TFFT. Taps are from chopped up kitchen sink toy and a piece of bent wire; towel rack is a piece of wire and two of those screw-in ring thingys with which my nanna used to use to hang her net curtains.

Might paint them all gold, might not.

Toilet artwork to come...

Blind made from a one of those plastic tourist tat fans to come...

Towel curtesy of an op-shopped YSL facecloth.

"Jingle bells"

5 coats of paint and a coat of gloss. Each with a six hour drying period between. Zzzzzzzzzzz.

"Jingle all the way"

"oh what fun it is to ride"

I've decided I'll paint the doll house to match the mini doll house.

"A one horse open sleigh"

Bought some c.u.t.e mini books, but gonna have a go at making my own.

any suggestions for amusing author/titles welcomed

"Hey"

Finally got the lamp sussed. Now need bedside tables to sit it on. Claud's blocks might have to do unless I get some inspiration.

"Jingle Bells"

Mucking round with accessories and arrangements here. Less is defo more where the orange 'bookcase' is concerned. Might make my own now there's more time...

Insert applause and wolf whistles here.

Righto, I'm off on a birthday baking/cooking christmas dinner for a million at our place frenzy now so don't cry, but there won't be another doll house update until the new year.

So merry christmas from Roz, and merry christmas from me x
