"MY LUXURY MINI BATHROOM with glass mosaic walls. "

Hello blog friends. The summer is ending 
here in Sweden and we have only +2-4 
degrees outside.

Now my creates desire has come back 
again after the summer break, so now 
my luxurious bathroom, that I started 
working on before, is finished. 
I myself am happy with the result...

" Excuse the ugly shadows on the walls."
They are not there in reality.

Take care! 

OUR "KING AND QUEEN" VISITED KATRINEHOLM SEPTEMEBER 2013.

Hello! We have had a pleasant visit of our 
royal couple our "King and Queen" here in 
Katrineholm Wednesday last week. They were 
here for quite some time and the King gave a 
speech in our City Park.

Think everyone was there, it was incredibly 
crowded. Managed to take some photos of 
more or less good quality, because it was so 
crowded, sunny and shady. Glad so many 
people came to welcome the royal couple.

* Summer is almost over and I have not done 
much miniatures. I see that some of you have 
worked hard and done many fine things. You 
are so talented. So fun to see your work. *

Greetings from a sunny Sweden.  ☀

MADE A MAYPOLE/MIDSUMMERPOLE IN MINIATURE

In the middle of everything that is happening 
here, I decided to take some time and make 
a Maypole-Midsummerpole in miniature. I did 
not want it to be to big and I am quite happy 
with the result. I think the dollhouse family
and their guests likes it. 

Hope you like it.

MADE A NEW NURSERY OF A BASKET, FOR A DOLLHOUSE BABY

This room box will be a small nursery.

I found a basket in a shop that looked 
like a room. Could not resist buying it. 

Now I shall furnish it with some white 
furniture I have had for years and make 
many accessories for the room. It will 
be fun.

I printed out the wallpapers on my photo 
printer and used the extra fine specialty 
papers for good pictures, with a good end 
result.

Here I show the childrens unfurnished room. 

I will have to take away some paint stains that 
have ended up on the box.

"A warm welcome to my new followers. ♥"

Now I will make a lot of things for this
Nursery Roombox.

My New Nursery.

Added some material to the floor
because it was a bit uneven.

PETITE PRINCESS ROYAL GRAND PIANO AND STOOL - COLLECTORS ITEM

Now I've finally found the "Petite Princess 
Royal Grand Piano and Stool." on Internet. 
The other day the postman came home to 
me with it. I'm so happy because I've 
been looking for several years without 
finding this on the Swedish auction sites. 
They are very rare here in Sweden. 

This is a part of the "Petite Princess 
Fantasy Furniture" by Ideal, whose 
dollhouse furniture is incredibly wellmade.

I like it partly because it has piano keys, 
that really looks like real keys. On the 
ones I have before, the keys are made ​​
of paper.   

I think this grand piano is so beautiful 
with the nice decor.    ♩ ♬  ♪ ♫  

(This is the same kind that "Xandra" has
as header on her wonderful blog. To see 
her blog = press on her name above). 

HÄNGBOK, "FAGUS SYLVATICA PENDULA" TREE, IN SÖDERTÄLJE SWEDEN.

One of my Favorite Trees:
Hängbok 'Fagus sylvatica' Pendula'.

This little tree grows in Södertälje, 
Sweden and I could see it, when I was 
on my way to work or to the center of 
the town, when I lived there.

It feels like it tells a bit of history, 
because I think it is very, very old. 
The branches form a nice cave
under the tree.

I am sharing these photos because I 
can not find so many photos of these 
kind of trees on the Internet.

RESCUED A "LITTLE MISS GINGER" COSMOPOLITAN DOLL FROM A SAD FATE.

This "Little Miss Ginger" Cosmopolitan doll 
from the 1950's,  that I found in Sollentuna 
Fair in Stockholm, looked so miserable so I
bought her and rerooted her hair. It's 
actually a pretty tricky job.

Little Miss Ginger with white hair is quite 
rare, so I decided to save this doll from a 
sad fate. 

She looked so sad before she got the new
hair, poor thing. I sewed a new dress for 
her in the same style as the original dresses 
and I also made a necklace. 

Now I think she looks like a real nice lady. 
Glad I saved her.

Below you can see before and after photos.

♥♥♥
In the photo below you can see my first Little 
Miss Ginger doll that was in complete and good 
condition when I bought her.

MR AND MRS CACO'S GOT A NEW BED.

I finally got time to do some new things 
for one of my dollhouses. I have made 
a bedspread and pillows to an iron bed 
that had for a long time, but not used 
before. 

In the photos you can see that Mr. and 
Mrs. Caco inspects what I have done. 
Hope they are happy with it.

Guess Mr. Caco probably likes the pillow 
that does not have any lace best! I made 
it especially for him. ♥

GAVE ONE OF MY 1:12 DOLLHOUSE DOLLS NEW CLOTHES.

I have sewn some new simple everyday
clothes to one of my homemade girls' dolls.
I thought she could use some new, now that
it's spring. She seems very happy that I made
them.

Made them of cloth with colors that make 
all the clothes fit together.

Nowadays I do not sew so much, but before I 
sewed a lot of my clothes from 12 years old 
until I was about 30 years. Designed and sewed 
even my niece wedding gown and christening 
gown for her children.

♥ I also want to welcome my New Followers!

Thank you Carmen on mi pequeña evasion
for the award you gave me! ♥

BOUGHT SOME DOLLHOUSE FURNITURE, DOLLS AND MINITURES SCALE 1:12

I have bought some I hope useful dollhouse 
things. I am happy because some of it I 
found here. There is no shop in this town 
that are selling miniatures for dollhoues, 
but now and than you can find some pieces 
in regular shops. 

Small useful things in the first photo that I 
will use when I am making more lamps. I
love these. 

Wanted some beautiful dolls, so I bought 

some heads with bodies and several hair-
pieces, instead of making new ones myself.
This is the first time I have bought these 
kind of halfmade?-dolls.

Some furniture. They are actually very well

made, even if they did not cost much.. I will

think about if I will make some Changes

with some of them.

And my favorite brand when it comes to

color, except for things that should be

chabby chick.
