Embroidery

Hallo Followers!!!
 
Sorry, that I didn't post for such a long time!
I've been to Germany a few days... again for business reasons.
 
Today, I would like to show you some embroidery I did a few years ago:
 
2 carpets from a miniature magazine


 
This chair was a kit...
I sanded it a lot to make the frame softer and stitched the cushion.


 
And finally, a butterfly picture.
I also did some smaller ones but I forgot to take some pictures!

 
Thanks for all your nice comments!
I love to read them :-)
 
See you soon,
Hugs

London

In January I spend a few days in London for business reasons.
As usually I was looking for dollhouse and miniature shops :-)
 
But in London I found no other dollhouse shop than Harrods.
The dollhouse department of Harrods was a little bit disapointing.
They had a beautiful big house there but unfortunately, they had just a few things to buy!
A few wallpapers, some pieces of furniture and some other things.

 
 





 
This is a miniature scene I saw at the natural history museum...

 

I thought that you are probably interested in some mini-pictures from London!
Have a nice day
and
see you soon!!!!!

Pocket door- Tutorial Part 3

Yesterday I made some door handles for the pocket door.
 
I used the metal from a tea candle.
 



Just cut the metal with a scissors and bend them in the shape and size of your choice .
 
 
 
Paint them if you want to (I painted them black) and gule them to the door.
 
 
 
FINISHED!
 
This is a sneak preview from the entrance hall of the Beacon Hill.
Yesterday, I was working on the floor and the walls for hours!!!
As soon as the staircase is mounted I will show you some pictures of it :)
 
I really love the hall way!!!
 
See you soon,
Lina

Ooops... I did it again...

Just a short post:
 
I did it again!!!
 
I couldn't resist to order another Greenleaf dollhouse kit :-)
I saw this Willowcrest kit on ebay and it was delivered from Germany.
So it was some kind of bargain... not really... but it was.
 

Dont't ask me when I will start to build this house..... someday!!!
 
See you soon,
Lina
