I started renovations today without really thinking about it but I like how it’s going. A trip to Home Depot inspired me, well, Martha Stewart paint chips inspired me. And the book was surprisingly exactly the right size. And I love how the sky light in the play room on the right side matches in nicely:
I also made shutters and window boxes with leftover pieces:
I’m fully aware that I said before that I’d planned to do a grey scale theme with this one. OH WELL!
Nothing is glued permanently in place yet, I have to paint all that yellow siding out. I might do a different colour for each wall, I don’t know yet!
The interior will continue with the paint chip theme, using larger pieces. And I got some wood laminate for the floors, I’ll dye it to match.
Exciting!


So amazing! Very interesting use of the paint chips.
You continue to amaze me with your wonderful creativity. Love it!. xoxo
I like it too, thanks. I’m dying to get back to Home Depot and swipe a couple more of the books. I might even BUY a sample can of her paint!
Not sure if your house has a working stove or not. Saw this, thought of you. http://www.shopgoodwill.com/auctions/Antique-Empire-Toy-Oven-WORKING-7380593.html#des

This dolls house reminds me of Pippi Longstocking’s house http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dkmxBix3b4Q/Swgh5tVn6zI/AAAAAAAAAf8/eVxeBWg49z4/s1600/Villa_villekulla.jpg
Looking forward to seeing your final result :)
