What makes this space so special is that it's hidden, well contained and enough room for four historical dolls. This space has given me the most joy to create.
Addy has the most "stuff" and I needed the extra room that the floor space offered. I walled in the room and laid matching floor down using foam boards.
She has a cooking area, table for meals and/or work space and a bedroom. I love her space so much, it's one of my favorites.

Josefina has a bed and cooking area as well, but her floor is narrow as it sits on a shelf.
Her space if full of color and I love the white walls because it looks like the Rancho that she toured.

Felicity's area is a bedroom. Her DIY bed takes up 2/3 of the space, but she does have storage and a sitting area.
The DIY travel trunk holds all of her smaller things and the cabinet holds dishes.
I had hoped to paper Felicity's bedroom in yellow and have a window in the sitting area. (Add that to next years list of projects!)
Rebecca now lives on the upper shelf. After I made Samantha's DIY Beforever bed, I gave Rebecca her brass bed.
Her bedroom is separated by a small storage cabinet.

Her walls are papered with scrapbook paper. I had hopes of getting her settee on Cyber Monday, but it wasn't included. She is using the DIY sofa.
I love it! That's about how much space my poor Lindsey has in her "room" a.k.a a shelf where she can't even fully sit up in bed. One day I hope to redo my human room and one thing that will happen is redoing the doll room.
ReplyDeleteMaybe clear out your closet and get a clothing rack. You can add shelves inside the closet spaced 20" :-)
DeleteThanks for sharing. I always love to tour other doll lover's doll homes!

ReplyDeleteThe rooms look very authentic to each era. Nice work.
I love Felicity´s dresser and Rebecca´s sofa! All of the rooms look great!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I want Rebecca's settee and am waiting for it go on sale.
DeleteWow, NICELY DONE! I especially like Felicity's room. Your heart is clearly in these rooms. What little treasures! Thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteIm trying to find inexpensive materials for designing my dollhouse walls. How do make the scrapbook paper wallpaper? I thought scrapbook paper would be a bit too small in width and height, but you're room looks really authentic. I was just wondering how you got it to look so perfect!
ReplyDeleteThese sheets are 12x12", when I "paper" the walls I overlap the sheets to match the pattern. If it's a solid then I overlap maybe 1/4". Scotch tape = Voila!
DeleteThis is sure a good idea. We have a couple hidden closets like that in our huge house.
ReplyDeleteOne is a doll closet, but it is just storage for doll closets, lol. And some AG's. We have 2 of
the big AG size dollhouses and furnishing them is fun.
Where did you get Addy's stove? Right now my Addys have a modern kitchen in their house for lack of knowing where to locate a stove like yours. Wonderful!
Thank you! I made Addy's stove. Here is the tutorial: http://livingadollslife.blogspot.com/2013/02/htm-doll-stove-canned-food_20.html
