Well its safe to say that 2020 totally derailed me. After my last post I ended up going on vacation and when I returned the entire world stopped. I am a behavioral health therapist so as an "essential worker" I may or not have become a bit lost in the motions. (also became insanely obsessed … Continue reading A Bad Blogger

Painting
I decided that before I put up the porch that I would paint the exterior of the house. Logic: it's easier. Putting up the porch first would mean when its time to paint having to manurer around the porch and hoping my paint brush: 1. fits and 2. doesn't accidentally paint something that it shouldn't. … Continue reading Painting
Roof
The roof on this house was a bit complicated to construct to say the least. The main portion was split into two. Which when constructing I don't actually think was necessary. Putting up the main part consisted of glueing the left half to the left wall and glueing the right half to the right wall. … Continue reading Roof
Construction Day 2
A simpler and easier day in the construction process. Consisted of glueing the plastic window sheet into their correct spots on the walls that I worked on yesterday. The front door is also completed. I never actually finished the front door on my willow dollhouse so I'm glad this was completed at the beginning this … Continue reading Construction Day 2
Construction Day 1!
Felt so good to be starting a new build. Day one was completed in about 2 hours time. It consisted mainly of finding the pieces I needed (which took a big longer than I thought it would). Greenleaf instructions continue to be a bit confusing for this build as well as the last. They're simplistic … Continue reading Construction Day 1!
A New Year, A New Dollhouse.
It's been a while since I last made a blog post and also a while since I've done any dollhouse work. I've been thinking for a while what I would like my next build to be, a long while clearly. I finally decided on the Arthur dollhouse. Its much smaller than my first build so … Continue reading A New Year, A New Dollhouse.
Furniture!
I've been focused so much on furniture lately and have not actually taken the time to upload any pictures to the blog on the furniture. Did I mention that furniture is expensive?? Furnishing a 6 room house takes time because - you know - budgeting. But here are some room updates (also on the instagram … Continue reading Furniture!
Lulllll
I haven't had much to blog about. I've pretty much finished the interior of the home and begun decoration and furnishing the home. There are a few details of the exterior (shutters mainly) that I haven't had the time to put up but hope to get it finished soon. Furnishing is so exciting and that … Continue reading Lulllll
Exterior Starts
I've been working so hard on the interior of the house that I've neglected the exterior until this point. I decided to go back to Home Depot for the paint for the outside of the house. I decided to do this since it took a lot of coats to achieve the color I wanted in … Continue reading Exterior Starts
Attic Paint
Up until this point my focus has been the main rooms in the house. I was still trying to decide what to do with the attic. But it was not forgotten. I've decided that one half of the attic will be an office space while the other half will be an informal living room. … Continue reading Attic Paint
