The kitchen alone belongs to our art and science museum, Bets! <br /><br />Love your choices for your walls but that mural you did top them all even though that hunting wallpaper in your bedroom is really crazy beautiful.Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-70802291257543366922012-02-10T11:57:07.617-05:002012-02-10T11:57:07.617-05:00me encanta... esta magnifica mil felicidades y sal...me encanta... esta magnifica mil felicidades y saludos<br />cristina.flores.20@hotmail.comcristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09059322047025123987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-80683484189830748952012-02-09T21:33:05.614-05:002012-02-09T21:33:05.614-05:00Thanks, Amy!

We will see if I STILL like that idea when I am trying to fit it into EVERY floor of the House!<br />I wish I could just come on over and add that magic motion to your Houses! (Maybe SOMEDAY!)<br />As for the way LIGHT adds LIFE to these little scenes... I will NEVER get over THAT!<br />As for the mural in the Master bedroom.. I did not paint that one... it is dollhouse wallpaper in a Hunting Scenic Mural... I ADORE it! It was one of those "AHA" moments for me in this Dollhouse... SO PERFECT! But the Chinoiserie Bedroom I DID paint.... inside the already built house... tiny bit by tiny bit.... I DO LOVE to paint things like that!Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-36496253907876506982012-02-09T21:25:10.396-05:002012-02-09T21:25:10.396-05:00Yay, Mom!

And NOT Finished! <br />The bathroom tiles were inspired by a bathroom in a house I lived in.... they were Black Glass and were from the forties... VERY Glamorous! I don't think this bathroom will be able to live up to that one's level of Style.... I think the curtains will be Lace and linen in various layers.... We'll see if I can make it resemble my mental picture..!Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-35012196159160909252012-02-09T21:08:31.096-05:002012-02-09T21:08:31.096-05:00Isn't it Amazing what the Sunlight will do, Ew...Isn't it Amazing what the Sunlight will do, Ewa?

This house is my childhood dollhouse... but I am adding all the parts it never had to begin with like doors and windows.... And so the painting had to be done on the walls already built... which was a challenge! The earliest posts in this blog tell the story of this house. I also did a post on the Chinoiserie Room in August or Sept of 2010.Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-69108121192374390262012-02-09T21:00:33.901-05:002012-02-09T21:00:33.901-05:00Thanks, Giac!

I tend to think of them as "unfinished" and "lived in".... and yes... there is a Peacefulness... especially when I capture the Sun in those very "real" moments of illumination....<br />I look forward to seeing YOUR rack for your scullery!Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-72317662588517868252012-02-09T20:55:14.843-05:002012-02-09T20:55:14.843-05:00Thanks, Eliana!

How often do I come across a miniature artisan who appreciates the animation made by morning light, the beauty of a painted wall, and the functionality of dumb waiters and drying racks and window sashes? Hardly ever! It's you! <br />I bow to you.
