dollhouse reno

Carpet and flooring is in. I went into a flooring shop and the guy in there gave me some offcuts. The lino is look alike cork flooring. I am hoping the carpet will stick okay, I have been using wood glue for everything as it dries clear.


This is the living room. I have left 2 walls timber and done a feature wall in the stripes. The paper for the walls is discounted scrapbook paper.

This is the kitchen. Again one wall papered, 1 painted as it was too marked and the other left as is.

'Parents room', this is painted as it was marked badly with water marks. To break the monotony I papered one wall. All the paint was sample pots I had in the cupboard from various other projects from times past. The blue bit of wall on the left is bathroom.

The bathroom still needs some work. I am going to tile the walls from about halfway down and I thought I might see what I can come up with as a leadlight type window.

Lastly is the children's room. Again the walls were a bit marked. I tried to do a ragging effect on the back wall and it looks ok. The photo makes it look really crappy but it isn't as bad as it looks.






For all the rooms I want to do some pictures in frames and perhaps some woven wall hangings or similar. Once all has dried I will put in the furniture and have another think. TBC......

UPDATE

The dollhouse has now been safely hidden (i hope) and all I need do is soft furnishings such as cushions and bedding etc. I am unsure whether to do curtains or not so any yay or nays feel free to comment. I also bought some air dry modelling clay to make some bits and pieces. I do want to tile the bathroom still and put some pics on the walls and little books in the shelves.
