Dollhouse - Name Unknown

Hello everyone.

Hope all is well and are continuing

to be safe.

Hope you also will use the

envelope patterns on the inside from

the last post.

There are so many ways to use them.

Do not know the name of this dollhouse

that I received. 

It is big and very nice!

But I cannot use it - no room here!

So I m going to donate it to the 

Thrift store here in town. 

Am sure or hope that some lucky little

girl will see it, want it and make it

her very own.

No words necessary.

Thank you for stopping by.

PRINTABLE - Inside envelopes show quilt designs

Hello everyone!

Been running behind on everything.

Just one of those months I guess.

Anyway until I can get caught up - thought

that you would like to print these out

so you can have some COOL quilts.

Just print them onto fabric, do some

hand/machine quilting and POOF you are

finished!

Be sure to check out the insides of those envelopes.

This first envelope is 1655 X 1522 pixels. so it will

print out bigger, just reduce to the size you need and

want.

There is a wrinkle in the pic but I thought it would

look good to see some movement in the quilt.

I left a little at the top here for you to cut off 

cause not sure what size this one would print

out to be. 

This one would look great as backing fabric

for a quilt or as dress fabric!!

You choose.

It is 1072 X 1358 pixels.

Hope you have had a great day!

Thank you for stopping by!

HALLOWEEN - WITCH'S SECRET ROOM - BOX PREPPED AND PAINTED

Hello Everyone!

Hope you are all staying safe.

And definitely keeping busy

doing your miniatures.

Love those booknooks.

Thank you so much Drora for

sending me the link on how one

guy made his.

I see the box is much narrower than

the box I am using. 

My box is 3&3/4's inches wide.

Those booknooks are much skinner

at least about half of the width of mine.

So, this will not be a booknook but will

be I hope a secret looking room.

I am still looking for a narrower box though

to make a booknook. 

Here are some pics of what I have done already.

Remember what the box looked like before.

It looked like a piece could be sawed out.

So I sawed out that piece to make a window.

It may be a secret witch room but I want

to be able to see in.

I cut out a hole at the top for a tea light

to be inserted in.

I then cut 2 sticks and glued it to the bottom.

You can see that I did not take the sticks up

to the edge.

The reason is because I want the lid to help keep

dust out of the room.

Just an upright pic to show the bottom.

I cut the plastic out for the window.

Inside is dirty and was wiped out.

Outside of box is painted black.

Just have the lid to paint.

I painted the inside of the box black.

I felt that it was 2 dark so I painted it

green with some black streaks.

Thank you for stopping by and hoped

that you enjoyed visiting with me.

HALLOWEEN - WITCH's SECRET ROOM - start with an empty box

Hello Everyone!

Hope you are all well and escaping

this virus.

Stay safe!

I know we have a few months before Halloween

arrives but sometimes I jump the gun if

inspiration and ideas start flowing. 

And this is one of those times.

I had been seeing those booknooks around on

Pinterest and Etsy and they are cute!!

Thought if ever a skinny box got in my hands that

I would  try to make something similar.

Although I am not experienced as many are.

I did get an idea for this box.

Hope you get some ideas too.

Months ago at our last miniature group

meeting a lady came in with a few items

that she did not want.

Well, need I say that I am one of those that

will take anything given to me.

LOLS!! Lo and behold there was this box and lid!

Smaller than a shoebox,

The box is blue and white toile with pretty ribbons

for carrying it. 

Thank you for looking!

Visit again!

Sewing Box - Sturdy Boxes To Become Sewing Rooms/Shops #2

Hello Everybody!

Hope you are staying indoors to

remain safe.

Thank you all that has left me comments.
Here is an update to the boxes.

I have primed it 2x's already and added 4 coats of white
paint on top.
It's possible that I need 2 or 3 more coats of paint on
each one. 

I will be adding windows and using the flaps as inside
walls.  
And I want one of these to have a
shabby chic look.
So, I would love some ideas on making it Shabby!

Both of these will be some sort of 
Sewing/Haberdashery shops.

Thank you for stopping by!
