Welcome to part 2 of the Gingerbread Bakery dollhouse build. This is a project I am making for Darby and Francesca who are loving watching the process.
The next step is adding color and wallpaper.
First, the wood walls and the floor got a brown wash. The floor's wash had 2 coats which made it look darker than the wall. It also got a coat of varnish for a little shine.I found 2 different wallpapers I loved for this project.. The first is the red gingham I found in the scrapbook section of the craft store(Hobby Lobby). Then looking through my stash I found the gingerbread house paper I had printed out from the internet a while back.The look I'm going for in here is very cozy, warm , old world space.
Under the loft, I applied a textured sheet of tin tile. This is the one you get in the miniature section of. Hobby Lobby. It is a plastic sheet you can cut to any size.
It can be painted and finished any way you like. For this project I painted it cream.
Now, the ornate trim is the next step. This trim looked just like whipped cream! You can make these trims yourself using candy moles. I have also made my chandelier from 18 gauge wire, a long bead and hot glue.And here it is painted and with little flowers applied to the center. I use a light kit from Evan Designs: https://evandesigns.com/products/miniaturist-lighting-package
I'm finishing up the details inside. The rest of the trim, a light where a counter will be...
Also the door and window I will be using got a coat of cream paint.
