It's another finished dollhouse.
This one is English cottage style 1/12 scale. It is very similar to Miss Read's Cottage that was a 1/2 scale.
This house measures 18" across x 17 1/2" tall x 16" deep
There's a little fairy door on the side of the porch.
It's a working fairy door.
One side of the house has a bay window.
The roof is pine shingles placed in a whimsical pattern.
The battery and switch are inside the red chimney. They operated all 4 chandeliers inside.
The downstairs is separated with a staircase.
The front wall has wallpaper. Ralph Lauren I think. I used an oriental print wallpaper on top and a traditional gingham on the bottom.
If I were to furnish this house I'd put the kitchen here with a sink under the window.
This side of the stairs would probably make a cozy reading nook.
Upstairs has a green traditional wallpaper with roses.
The Old Cottage would be great fun to furnish. But I'll leave that to the person who buys it. I can't take all the fun away! It's available in my Etsy shop.

Hello Caroline! You always seem to work at lightning speed and get your projects done in record time! I have just been dazzled by your beach cottage and now here is another beauty right on its heels and just a cute as its bigger sister! You have such a fabulous way of making these cottages so personal and imbue so much magic into each and every one! It becomes difficult to have a favorite so I will have to say that I would love to just live in them All!

Hi Caroline! I quote Elisabeth: You always seem to work at lightning speed and get your projects done in record time! In my opinion she is absolutely right about that :D!! This house looks fabulous as usual and just like all your other houses. While reading your blog post I even thought this cottage looks like the house of Hansel and Gretel :D! It is a fairy tale house!

I love all your houses, and this has a very special charm. I really like misplaced tiles, slightly curved shapes, the color of the wood, the aged. It is simply beautiful.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
Lovely!!!
ReplyDeleteКаролин, домик у вас волшебный!
ReplyDeleteМожно бесконечно долго любоваться каждой деталью. Фантазия великолепная! Я люблю заходить к вам в гости и любоваться шедеврами!
С любовью из России. Елена.
Wow, Caroline...I'm speechless. First the Beach Cottage, and now this one! Hard to decide which I'd chose! You must be working like crazy to get them both done so quickly.
ReplyDeleteThey are both fabulous. So much talent you have!
Hope all is well,
Vicki
hoi Carolijn,
ReplyDeleteik vind ze zo prachtig ik zou graag dat soort dingen ook willen maken, helaas heb ik daar de ruimte en de tijd niet voor.
dus geniet ik dubbel van jou prachtige creaties
groetjes Marja
It is really a fairy tale cottage.
ReplyDeleteGeneviève
Realmente muy bonita, me encanta.
ReplyDeleteYet another lovely house!

This delightful little English cottage would be ideal for the cover page of a fairy tale book! What little girl would not be curious to explore its contents? The little fairy door is such a fanciful touch and gives it an aura of enchantment. The whimsical pattern of the shingles and of the roof provide the antiquated look that I so love. The interior is beautifully finished and your mixture of wallpaper on the bottom floor provides a charm of its own and confers a welcoming ambiance.
ReplyDeleteIt is so beautiful I would have like to live beautifully made great admiration there for happy Danielle
ReplyDeleteEverything about this little house is adorable!
