My Favorite Things

 Awhile back, one of my readers asked that I 
show more details of items in my Doll Room.
I have SO many little things that make up my
Doll Room decor and these items are
My Favorite Things.

I will start in my doll kitchen.

The kitchen used to be all pink and white.  

I built the stove with some help from my husband.

This is how our doll kitchen first looked.

It was a hodge-podge of American Girl size items.

Then I saw this image of a 1930s kitchen.

So I repainted and restyled everything.

I found this cabinet in a thrift store and began

slowly adding lots of doll kitchen items.

I made the eggs in my egg basket and

I used this little Delft pinch bowl to hold

my apples.

Another little kitchen item I love

is this crock and doll cookng utensils.

I also have a collection of vintage and antique doll plates.

These are my Colonial Williamsburg tea cups made for

the Pleasant Co. Felicity Doll (early American Girl).

Another thing I love are miniature tea sets!

I just found this one in a thrift store.

This tea set my grandmother painted.

And this tea set I found online.

also notice the little hankies I 

use for doll linens. 

I also love little bowl and pitcher sets

AND

pretty miniature mirrors.

Here is another bowl and pitcher set

in front of a pretty etched mirror.

Here is a close-up of the wall decor.

These are images of 1940s wall

hangings for a child's room.

(I printed them, pasted to cardboard

and cut them out)

I also have a collection of

miniature books.

Books take me back to my childhood of

reading quietly to myself, escaping

into worlds of make-believe.

These are all my American Girl Doll books.

All these books are 4" or less, most are 2".

On the antique rattan doll dresser are several

cute things, but my favorite is...

This  3" enameled tray

It's a cricket on a fallen leaf.

And on Cissy's dressing table...

This enameled tray. It is just 2" across.

I also love this birdhouse pillbox.

Another favorite in the big dollhouse

is this wooden sewing machine

I made with my husbands help.

This is my 1940s Georgene Raggedy Ann.

She sits in her rocking chair and 

reads to all the dolls from this pop-up book.

I love my miniature 2" Raggedy Anns.

Who am I kidding?

I adore this entire doll house!

And this one....

AND THIS ONE!!!!

OK, here is the link to go back and see 

the whole doll room.

As you can see I am a hopeless

collector of all the doll-sized

things I can find.

WHEW!

I hope you enjoyed some of my Favorite Things.
