Dollhouse Wallpaper

We have been working hard on the dollhouse.
Now we are wallpapering:
The Dining Room is done with two patterned papers
from my card crafting.
We also added a new dining room set.
The nursery is wallpapered with wrapping paper:
The Master Bedroom is wallpapered from
real wallpaper books lent to me from my good pal,
Andrea from our Gruppo Italiano.
We added a new bedroom suite which is under construction.
The canopy needs a little taming.
(Bret starched and clipped it.)
The kitchen has a plaid from a patterned paper
from my craft supply.
Also, you can see a deliteful kitchen cabinet
decorated with roosters which
Jen, from across the street gave me
along with the whole house
and most of the other furniture including that
beautiful old fashioned stove under the stairs!

Oh, and I found that painted light blue armoire too.

Polly Two Dots aka: Meow or Ebo Cat

Say hello to our new little pal.
She followed us home.
Her name is Polly Two Dots
aka: Meow or Ebo Cat

As you can see, she coordinates nicely with the kitchen.




kitty tower

Bret made this wonderful kitty tower for Meow.
It is made from scrap wood
and the basement carpet
torn up to allow for the bookcases.Didn't he do a great job!
