My
parents started building this dollhouse from scratch when I was really
little. Literally from a sheet of plywood. We recently set it up again
after many years. My mom had it turned around so you could only see the
outside of the house. We had gotten some dollhouse furniture at an
auction years ago that we hadn’t looked at yet and we found lots of
treasures. There is a small fortune in this house but it’s been almost a
30 year project.
My parents cut all the shingles, all of the working windows and moldings, and sand paper bricks on the outside. My mom has knitted sweaters with string and tooth picks, and if you look at the one photo with the sewing room, she created the half dress too. You can even see the pins she made from really sewing pins.
They say they aren’t artists but they just do different art than I do. Someday, I will create a children’s book from this and it will be epic.
I asked my mom about this tonight and she said she can remember snow white was always playing in the back ground on the tv when they were building it. And to this day, when she hears that movie, all she can smell is saw dust and hot glue.
