Dollhouse Display ~ The Garden Courtyard Scene ~2013

Dear followers of my blog. It seems that yet another year has gone by without me blogging as I used to. Its mainly because I haven't been able to work as much on my dollhouse miniatures like I used to. I don't finish one big project per month as I used to but the mini bug is still inside of me :)

last year, I was able to complete two small projects and one large project. This blog is about one small one I finished last year in February.

I was going stir crazy and needed to work on a mini project. My real life bathroom was being revamped and my home was a mess. I also deal with pain in my upper back arms and right hand. So I started with a small corner yard scene because those of you who follow me know the story of how I LOVE doing yards scenes and why. I used Creative paperclay to create the stucco and stones. I created some of the flowers by hand.

I had such a fun time doing it!! It's 1" scale and it has grooves in so that a plexiglass covering could be added to it. Before I had a chance to put it up for sale, it sold after posting pictures of it on Facebook. Here is pictures of that scene.

Thank you for taking the time to read and view my blog! I am still surprise and flattered by amount of "hits" this blog still get and the emails regarding this blog. Thank you all for that! ~ Tracy Topps

I did finally finish up this Cottage. It took me a long while but It's finished and Here are the pictures.

Welcome to the Sunshine Cottage where it always look sunny! There are birds and even a dog waiting to welcome you to your new home! The insides has 1 room with wood planked floor. There are 2 electrical outlets to add your lamps to give the insides the warmth and realism needed. The Ceiling has a blue floral printed wallpaper  and the windows has a nice white trim.

 

This cottage has flower vines and bushes adding to the warmth of the place. The front has a coach light. The size of this 1" scale dollhouse is 13" W x 13"D x 15"H . It was a fun build and I hope you enjoy viewing the end results

DollHouse Heart Arbor W/Flower Vine

I haven't blogged all this year but I have been busy making Dollhouse Minis! I made a cute Vignette scene this month. We have had a very mild winter considering I live in the midwest but, it's not warm enough for me to enjoy flowers yet so I had the urge to create a scene with summer flowers blooming.

I have this item (plus others) for sale on my etsy shop  I made a 1" scale Heart arbor scene that you can display on your table top or desk or anywhere you'd like to add a splash of color and enjoy your miniatures!

It's a full vine with over 40 blue and white flower blooms in the climbing vine that is covering this arbor. There is even a bird hiding in this vine. The bricks were all hand sculpted by me "free style" without use of molds. I then painted each and every brick to simulate the look of what you would see in real life. If you purchased this scene, I am sure you will be as happy with it as my many other customers are with their items. The size is of this 1" scale item is 11" W x 8 1/2" D x 9" H

Here are shots of me sculpting these bricks using hand made tools to create accurate sized bricks. No molds were used.

Thank You for stopping by to view my blog! I hope you are having a Fantastic 2012 so far! What are you building this year? Leave a comment to let me know!
