I have never done a tour of my doll room on this blog.
I thought you all might enjoy seeing my doll, craft and sewing room.
SO, here we go!
This room is in the attic of my house.
As you reach the top of the stairs you see my secretary
Inside the secretary is a house for my smaller dolls.
Alice has the bottom shelf. Most of this doll furniture I made.
Except for this wood bed and 2 wood chairs that I found thrifting.
Here is Toni and her poodle Tina.
Past the secretary in the left corner is the big dollhouse.
This was built to house our American Girls.
The kitchen.
The living room.
As you turn clockwise, to the right you can see my doll cradles.
My doll cradles are right in front of my sewing area.
Doll cradles.
My Sofia and her bunnies.
L - R: My bunny from Harrods, Sir Pumphrey Fotheringham III,
my Effanbee baby doll, Patsy Joan, two of my sock animals and
the smiley lamb; which was one of my daughter Sophie's stuffies when she was a baby.
L-R: Sock Monkey, Raggedy Annie, Madame Alexander baby doll,
Girl bunny, and my Edith Flack Ackley doll, and more Raggedys.
Behind the cradles is my sewing and craft area.
These bins hold all my small sewing items, buttons, snaps, velcro, etc.
Opposite my sewing table is a little lingerie
wardrobe I use to hold my fabric.
On top are some of my doll hats.
And, one of my recent finds, a reproduction Patsyette doll,
dressed as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz.
As you turn to your right, you can see the top of
the stairs and back to my secretary.
You can also see where I pose a lot of my doll photos,
on the ledge in front of the curtains.
The curtains hide another little room.
When you walk around behind my secretary, you see...
This extra little room for guests.
On the far bed are my teddies.
On the dresser is the room shared by Cissy and Shirley.
I made the beds and dressing table myself.
Shirley, Bennet, and her dolls.
Here is Cissy's dressing table top.
I love collecting miniatures for all the dolls.
I made Cissy's lamp, and it really lights!
SO, now you've seen the whole room.
I hope you enjoyed seeing where all my dolls live.
What a cozy place! So pretty! Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteI am sure it boosts your creativity immensely to have such a lovely spot in which to work (and play).
You've found some furniture pieces that work so well for you.
I'd like to know about the pink knitted blanket draped over the crib - it has the look of an heirloom. Do tell!

Thanks Janet, I'm so glad you enjoyed my doll room. I have a newer doll room tour you should look at! I have changed a lot since this post. The crochet blanket was actually store bought, although most of the other doll quilts and tiny knit or crochet blankets I made. Yes, that blanket was given to me when my daughter was a baby 15 years ago!
