Yes, I went MIA (missing in action) again! But I can assure you I'm always thinking about minis and still making purchases. I thought to kick start myself back into action, I would buy another d...

Dark blue walls, love them when I see them, but something I'd never do at home.  I also love the look of black, dark grey, and teal walls, but once again, I'd never do it at home (although I do ...

It's May and I need to replace the Christmas scene! Ya think? Even though I haven't commented on blogs recently (and I do feel guilty about that) I've been checking in. When I first started blogg...

I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas and that you're still enjoying the holidays. Christmas has always been my favorite holiday and I love wrapping gifts, seeing out-of-town relatives, strol...

I've been wanting a dollhouse for a while because I wanted doorways, windows, ceilings, angles, nooks and crannies to stage rooms in (it's called dollhouse envy). I've been scouring yard sales, C...

Hello again, I purchased some orange gladiolas at the grocery store, which are blooming quite nicely, so while admiring my beauties, I decided to make them my backdrop for an orange and turquo...

I hope everyone is having a great summer!  It's been a busy one for us and there's no sign of it letting up yet. I need a drink!  I need a break! I need a drink! I need a.....bath???  NO, I n...

Last week I did a tag-along to New York City with my hubby, who was attending a conference. Lucky for me, I get to do that sometimes!  But, before I share my little goodie with you, let's talk w...

It's 2014!  Happy New Year people! I must say I'm disappointed that I didn't get around to doing a Christmas scene.  I bought the stuff and never got around to it.  I did the same thing last...

Hey Y'all! It's been a looooong minute since my last post, but I've just been disgustingly lazy!  I realize that it's much more fun to 1) read mini blogs to see what creative madness you people ...

Life in the big city, or not!  I've always thought it would be so cool to live in the heart of  a big city, but I guess I'm destined to live and thrive in suburbia.  So, I brought the skyscra...

I finally got around to using my big, clunky, made-for-a-three-year-old, dollhouse.  I had been wanting to do a music room so I bought a saxophone and I already had some key chain guitars (which...

I bought this dresser at a thrift shop last summer, along with some other beat up dollhouse furniture, with the thought of giving them new life.  Like everyone else out there, I feel like I ne...

I've noticed that a few of you have recently purchased or constructed dollhouses or room boxes. I really envy you because you have the architectural details that I'm craving.  I don't own a dol...
