My New Beach House

CCC II

 
So, I just bought a new beach house! Some of you may recall the dollhouse challenge I participated in several years ago. I had so much fun doing it, I decided to do a beach dollhouse. 

Above is the rattan dollhouse I have ordered. I am envisioning a Florida/Serena & Lily look with lots of blue and white, rattan, wicker, palm trees, and of course chinoiserie.  

 This "pagoda garden folly" was part of my original dollhouse project - I plan to give it a little refresh too.

Dollhouses are great fun for adults too. They allow your imagination and creativity to run wild. I'll post updates as I find things and complete "rooms." There are tens of thousands of miniature pieces on Etsy and eBay, but the vast majority are traditional, with beach and chinoiserie choices needles in a haystack. I am also planning on some DIY and repurposing of things I already have. It will be fun!
