Primitive Style Saltbox Farmhouse with Chicken Coop

The Primitive Style Pumpkin Saltbox Farmhouse with Chicken Coop is done. This is a completely custom, one of a kind, signed dollhouse.
I changed the front door! It used to be purple. But I think this cream color is much softer.

I also painted in the top window panes with a stained glass look.
 Above the door hangs the worn farm fresh eggs sign.

I made this flower box with left over pieces of wood. It's painted taupe and filled with moss and red flowers.
The chicken coop screen door.
This is the chicken coop side. I added a few rusted tin stars on a rusted wire. I found these at Hobby Lobby.  It's a little garland for a tiny Christmas tree.
The view through the screen of the chicken coop.
The roof is aged brown and I added deep blue shingles here and there.

And here is the interior. It has aged yellow pinewood plank floors with a little braided rug.   The ceiling has an unfinished color wood slat ceiling. One wall is bricks, hand sculpted. The other wall is plaster sculpted as wainscoting. The other two walls are plaster painted in a golden butter color.
I put the bottle brush tree near the window. It has graduated colors from orange to yellow and is covered in glitter.
I made this chandelier from wire, beads and finished it with moss and red flowers.
I put in my little fireplace mantle and accessories including the cake with bunting, little saltbox paper house and had painted picture of a primitive agricultural scene. Very Americana!
I painted this bench chair to look rustic with another little scene in the heart.
This dollhouse is still available for $375 + $25 USPS parcel shipping(insurance included) and will be listed in my Etsy shop next week. If you would like to reserve it or purchase it  just send me a note at cinderellamoments@yahoo.com
Layaway is available. Payments accepted are checks and PayPal.
This house is 14" across x 13" deep x 15 3/4" tall. The interior is 13 1/4" across x 11 1/4" deep x 14" tall.

  8. oooo this is unbearable! your performance, your imagination and your sudden final touches that often change everything what we waiting for! It's two times I was pleasantly deceived! I absolutely did not like the idea of ​​Frogs House and Eggs Home in their start and I wanted so that they were quickly finished. But after seeing the result I admire and admire! That is putting the finishing touches suddenly change everything. It's a talent!
