Wow, he put a little red Christmas light under the fireplace. The wiring, electrical, and the attention to detail,--simply amazing! This will be so interesting to follow. Just love it.
This must have been a huge project to create. Imagine the happy children receiving this and the countless hours of joy it brought. Not to mention the love the person making this had in their heart. So happy you are bringing a new life to this precious house.
The tour of the house had all the emotion of an urban explorer's exploration of an abandoned family house. This is a wonderful project and a real and authentic look back at the past. Just lovely!
Wow! The more I see the better it gets. Whoever built this gave a lot of attention to detail. What a well loved little girl who received it. So glad it will now be lovingly and meticulously restored.
I started out amused and entertained with the housing of the mice - then thankful you didn't put the child on the toilet. When you got to the tour of the doll house with the recently found furniture - it became emotional. The man who built it for his children and perhaps grandchildren are all shining down on you. You are doing them proud. Wondering - any interest in researching who lived in the house where the doll house came from? I am loving this journey - thank you, Scott.
What a splendid dollhouse. Such careful details. I’m glad it’s in your hands to give it a proper restoration, not renovation. All the furniture and accessories takes it up another level. I’m thoroughly enjoying this series. Thanks
OMG! Even an old phone, and an umbrella, and things to put on the mantel. You have truly found treasure. You’ve also found a lot of work to do, and it’s going to be such fun watching you do it.
It makes me think of Beatrix Potter and The Tale of Two Bad Mice, and my mum has her original Triang doll's house she was given as a child in the 1940's. Glad you are saving it!
Beautiful workmanship on the house and furniture. Scott you did a great house tour. I felt like I was walking through the house! Its wonderful to see the details of each piece of furniture. Can't wait for the follow up videos! Thanks so much for sharing!❤
Ahhhhh!!!!! Scott!!!! INCREDIBLE is not enough!!!! This is pure JOY to see!!!! My imagination is running wild... Did a kind grandfather make this for a special little girl?...a Loving Daddy for his daughter?... A sweet husband for his wife?... And the planning and thought that went along...OH this "old girl" is young again!!! And it was meant for YOU to find it and love it back to life!!! I look forward to more of this🏘 Thanks for a pleasant coffee break 👵💖🍂🍃🍁
Love this house. The little person who was on the receiving end of this was so loved. I truly feel the love that went into the making of this home. I myself love doll houses and have made several. My favorite pieces are the baby dolls. How sweet they are. I am so happy someone saved this treasure by storing it in a safe place. I know you will restore it to its original beauty. Looking forward to the next chapter.
Reminds me of the doll house my Grandfather built for my much older cousin Alice. It was stored in the rafters of my other cousin's garage. When I was a kid, I'd look at it and ask if I could have it, I was always told, no, it belongs to Alice. I went out to look at it one day and it was gone. My Aunt told me it had a wasp nest, so they threw it away! Broke my heart, I could have easily cleaned out a nest!
I love everything, all of the furniture and decorations. For some reason I love the little coffee mug I guess because I drink a lot of coffee. If the girl in the bathroom can sit I would put her on the vanity bench.
This is so amazing! My papa was a talented woodworker. Most of the furniture in my house was built by him, beds, dressers, hope chest, toy box, cradle, vanity table, cabinets, baby doll furniture. I will never have all new furniture because I could never part with anything he made for me haha! When I was a child he built a dollhouse for me, similar to the size of yours. It's nearly 40 years old now. My first daughter who is now grown played with it for many years. Now I have a 4 year old (surprise baby :) ) who is begging for an LOL house or barbie house, plastic junk. She doesn't yet see the magic of my old dollhouse handmade with sturdy wood and love because it is very old and outdated and well loved from years and years of play. So now I am on a journey trying to figure out how to remodel it to make it more appealing to her. I need to take out and replace all of the wallpaper, carpet, all of the molding, also need to redo all of the windows, very overwhelming to someone with no experience with this stuff. Hoping my papa passed on some of his skills to me. So glad I found your channel. Hopefully I can pick up some tips and tricks while watching your restoration. I would love to know the history of this house, I am pretty certain it was made with love for someone very special!
Beautifully made dollhouse. I can't wait to see your progress. Please keep us in the loop. I would've died and gone to heaven if I'd have found this house, but I don't have room for any more 😕.
This hobbyist was extremely creative and resourceful. It will be a challenge that you are up to overcome and restore this lovely little Tudor home. The lighting fixtures are extremely unusual to see, this will be so interesting to see you work on and make it livable once again. Scott, you have been chosen and now you will shine.
My dad's dollhouse from the 30s has that same green kitchen sink. This was a real labor of love for the original buider. You're doing a wonderful job. Actually I'm seeing some other familiar bits, some a generation older than the 30s. What a little treasure trove!
That radio! Oh my! I had no idea you had so much furniture, and the RADIO ! I can’t get over it! Fibber McGee and Molly! Let’s sit around the fire and listen.
That house is stunning and well built. They definitely don't make them like that anymore! I love dollhouses from back in the day. I am literally living in a house that looks like a doll house. It was built in 1916 which for the southwestern united states is old. Who ever the owners where, took such amazing care of my house. All the wood floors are all original except the kitchen. I can't believe the owners let this house go. I love it, it all had a fire place and wood stoves in every room! It's a large house a little big for my small family but I love this house.
I got the chills towards the end of your video as you panned back to reveal the added furniture! It’s all so precious. Thank you for bringing us on your doll house journey 😊
What a delightful tour of an old house. It almost seemed real and not a child's plaything. So glad you found it. Fun seeing what the mice brought to the larder.👏☺
That's such a beautiful old house. I somehow missed seeing this. It's got great bones. My hubby's grandpa handmade a dollhouse for his mom, for a Christmas gift, when she was little. It is one story and is accessed by removing the folding roof. He electrified it with tiny lights too. (Even has glass windows that go up and down, hinged doors, and a working doorbell). His five sisters played with it, at their house, growing up. Then it went back to his grandpa's guest room for the grandkids. When the estate was settled, no one wanted it because it was pretty hammered. We took it and stored it for over 15 years until our youngest daughter wanted to play with it. So we cleaned it up and made a few repairs. She became obsessed with it and played almost exclusively with it, using her littlest Pet Shop animals. She loved it so much, that she has it stored for her kids someday. A few years back, her grandmother tried to take it back, to give to another cousin to play with. It ruffled a few feathers because we had to say no to grandma, my hubby's sister, and young niece. We knew that it wouldn't come back to us because grandma had "promised" it to the neice and that she could keep it. (Without checking with us first). Dollhouses definitely have personalities and the people that love them, can have strong attachments to them. Thanks for the delightul tour. So many creative touches were put into your dollhouse. Truĺy amazing!
It's the perfect thing for a person who loves nostalgia: you don't have to have the whole house dedicated to it; you now have a whole new category of treasures to look for; and you can rearrange things to your heart's content. I loved the sturdy little coffee mug waiting on the table. And was that a spittoon?! I would, however, throw one of those lovely area rugs over that torn bit of carpet upstairs. You wouldn't want someone to trip! Can't wait for more!
Absoulty beatiful can hardly wait to the the finnished Doll House. Thank You For the sneek peek. Will enjoy watching the restoration process. Please Stay Safe, Happy and Healthly.Have A Wonderful Day
Wow what a find! Take your time and enjoy the process of restoring it. Neat to think back to when the model was built it was a copy of a then "modern home" not a vintage home as we see it now. btw......love those bathroom tiles😉👍
Oh my Word!! You got so many pieces of furniture!!! And all those tiny, DEAR accessories!! Umbrella, cane, carpet, book, lovely vases and candlestick...plus a Wee Jade Elephant!!! Can you imagine the FUN that father had making this for his little girl????🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍❣❣❣❣❣🤗🤗 Must have been a Wonderful Christmas Surprise!! So much love and care went into this one...💗💗💗💗💗 And that Mouse had a Very Ritzy House for a few years!!!😳😳😂😂😂👍👍🥰🥰 Thanks for including us in your Journey!!
So much furniture and so many accessories! A real treasure trove. I love the umbrella, the little elephant, all of it. I want to move that cute green bench somewhere else. Maybe the kitchen or the porch? I can't wait to see more of your restoration, which I know will be accurate and sensitive. Thanks for sharing!
Fabulous!!! I have made doll houses and have owned quite a few! This one is to die for!! Sooo much Love was originally put into making this great toy! I have only seen one other one that comes close and that was made buy your husband for his wife because they had no children and he made all the furniture to for her!
I LOVE this dollhouse!! It seems it's builder built it with care as well as for sturdiness. Really love how it looks before renovation, even. The furniture is wonderful, too! Great video, thank you.
super excited to see this all cleaned up floors cleaned , carpet vacuumed, wood polished..windows washed lol drapes up, lights working ,porch up ..more furnishings, maybe some bedding lol ..fully restored..the furniture in there now and the throw rugs .are so fabulous,.that little green elephant, that master bed!!!! ..it's all so amazing..can't wait to see it all done. Thank you for saving it .
Wouldn’t it be grand if you could speak to the builders of this doll house. In my mind, I can see a Mom & Dad planning and executing this project for Christmas for their beloved daughters. So much landing and detail here it was truly built with great live. Wouldn’t it gave been a special Christmas morning when the girls Rand down the stairs and found what Santa had left for them. I just wish the family had valued thus treasure and had kept it in their family. But it’s great that it’s in your hands Scott because you’ll do a fantastic job with it.
Scott, I just found your channel. I love old things but don’t have room to display them anymore so I enjoy living vicariously through you. You are so amusing to watch as well. The doll house is amazing! Someone built it with a lot of skill and love. Can’t wait to see it restored!👍🇨🇦
Scott ,I am almost as excited over this doll house as you.I am soo happy that it has landed in your hands. I can't wait to see it restored by your expertise.
Omg,the dollhouse is incredible,It brings me back to being younger,my Papa build me a barbie dollhouse,and hand made all the furniture,I passed it onto my niece
This is just the most fascinating restoration I've ever seen. Good with hands we use to say back in the day. Double entendre aside. Good for you, my friend.
I don’t think I have seen you so excited about any one piece you have found! It’s truly wonderful! Can’t you just think what child or children had this and what fun they had! I had a small doll house but my parents were never into saving old things so who knows what happened to it! My paternal Grandmother gave me my love of things from past eras and I am most appreciative! I got her huge solid wood mahogany sleigh bed that I will never give up!
Love it love it love it! This dollhouse is such a labor of love for the original maker. Now that it's in your hands Scott I know that you will have the same passion as you restore it. Looking forward to seeing the progress! 🙂
Can you imagine the child on the day it received this lovely house! Wow! This must have cost a pretty penny back in the day. I LoVe it! Can't wait to see the finished restoration.
I’m just in absolute awe. Almost overwhelming 😔. And bless the little mice who made a cozy home too. I’ve always been curious to look into crawl spaces! This one really delivered the goods!!🙌🏻♥️🐩
You crack me up Scott - you are too funny lol - I wish I could be there hanging over your shoulder ( as I used to do with my Dad) . He taught me as a little girl how to rewire lamps and where to put tubes in radios and TVs when they came along. I love fixing things! I’ll be hanging in there for all your episodes, no matter how long it takes! love to you and the memory of Salem🥰👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Truly amazing. As you went room to room, I could not help but think about the lovely little girl who received this treasure and the hours that she played with it. Wish they somehow had pictures of her and her grandpa. Absolutely wonderful!
Wow, they found a lot of the furniture Can't wait to see the finished doll house. That living room was amazing and the iron dogs in the fireplace was the finishing touch to it.
What a sweet little house. My neighborhood library growing up had a giant furnished doll house behind a glass cabinet for people to look at. I loved going and sitting on the floor in front of it and dreaming about getting to play with it 🥰
This was obviously made with a lot of detail and love. I always think when I attend an estate sale and very personal things like this doll house, or photo albums are offered for sale, wasn’t there any relative who could take these heirlooms and pass them onto other family? My husband and I always buy the photo albums nobody cares to keep. We have a large collection we always like to look through from time to time. Scott, it’s almost as if we care more for their families than they do.
Your house is simply adorable and is going to be so cozy. I would love to drink a cup of coffee at that table. Looking so forward to upcoming episodes. I love everything about it.
Wonderful to watch! I have the dollhouse my grandfather built for my mother and her sister in the 1940s, and though it does not have the detail yours does, I will treasure it always! 😍
Please document what you can about the house, who built it and when, for whom, list of owners and changes through time. Something that goes with the house to each new owner in case it is separated from your family. I have found people online who acquire unwanted houses and burn them, it's horrible . They film them on fire. I was searching for a mini structure for firemen and found this evil
LOVE IT! So many little details that scream that era. The little radio in the liv rm. is darling. Happy you are bringing it back to life. p.s. Looks like they redecorated in the 70's and put up wood paneling. 😊 That's gotta go. lol
Thank you for watching. My hope is to preserve this work of art and to honor the maker and original owners of this enchanting house.
Wow, he put a little red Christmas light under the fireplace. The wiring, electrical, and the attention to detail,--simply amazing! This will be so interesting to follow. Just love it.
It’s charming🌟
A museum may be interested in purchasing once you are finished.
@@debraadamsadams6955 Where may I see this masterpiece?
This must have been a huge project to create. Imagine the happy children receiving this and the countless hours of joy it brought. Not to mention the love the person making this had in their heart. So happy you are bringing a new life to this precious house.

Wow! The more I see the better it gets. Whoever built this gave a lot of attention to detail. What a well loved little girl who received it. So glad it will now be lovingly and meticulously restored.
The house tour took me back 100 years!! What a wonderful find!!
It's like you saved an old building from being demolished. Thanks.
This was the playlist that got me hooked on TOCS.
Cannot wait till the restoration resumes..so excited.😊
I started out amused and entertained with the housing of the mice - then thankful you didn't put the child on the toilet. When you got to the tour of the doll house with the recently found furniture - it became emotional. The man who built it for his children and perhaps grandchildren are all shining down on you.

Wondering - any interest in researching who lived in the house where the doll house came from?
I am loving this journey - thank you, Scott.
What a splendid dollhouse. Such careful details. I’m glad it’s in your hands to give it a proper restoration, not renovation. All the furniture and accessories takes it up another level. I’m thoroughly enjoying this series. Thanks
I was today years old when I finally understood the allure of dollhouses. It’s not about the dolls, it’s about the HOUSES. I am in love!
That canopy bed is fantastic!!
Good evening Scott 💓
This house is beautiful, even in its unrestored condition. And the furniture is just incredible! Thank you for sharing this~
Watching this has made me think of my Nana's house with the 1930's decor. The house is amazing. Looking forward to watching the progress.
How can anybody cry over a dolls house?.Well I just did.Beautiful house ,those mice were very lucky to live in such a beautiful house
OMG! Even an old phone, and an umbrella, and things to put on the mantel. You have truly found treasure. You’ve also found a lot of work to do, and it’s going to be such fun watching you do it.
It makes me think of Beatrix Potter and The Tale of Two Bad Mice, and my mum has her original Triang doll's house she was given as a child in the 1940's. Glad you are saving it!

Can't wait for the follow up videos!
Thanks so much for sharing!❤
Awesome! Thank you!
What a childhood-dream coming true, without any plastic! 😆
That is a beautiful Dollhouse! I would love to see it decorated with the 1920's-30's Christmas Decor. That would be Awesome!!. Thank You Scott, :)
Glad you can slip into your deco era world for hours on end with this beauty...
Even complete with the Trophy Ram head over the mantle. Someone really went all out for some little girl. :~)
Ahhhhh!!!!! Scott!!!! INCREDIBLE is not enough!!!! This is pure JOY to see!!!! My imagination is running wild... Did a kind grandfather make this for a special little girl?...a Loving Daddy for his daughter?... A sweet husband for his wife?...

I’m amazed you found a doll house not only so intricate and well made but in such great condition.

When I was a kid, I'd look at it and ask if I could have it, I was always told, no, it belongs to Alice. I went out to look at it one day and it was gone.

That little mouse had themselves some pretty fancy digs.. lol..
Just to know that you are giving as much to this doll house as the person who built it is amazing. Please keep showing us as you go along on this.
This is so amazing! My papa was a talented woodworker. Most of the furniture in my house was built by him, beds, dressers, hope chest, toy box, cradle, vanity table, cabinets, baby doll furniture. I will never have all new furniture because I could never part with anything he made for me haha!

Beautifully made dollhouse. I can't wait to see your progress. Please keep us in the loop. I would've died and gone to heaven if I'd have found this house, but I don't have room for any more 😕.
Wonderful little house. Can't wait to see it all spruced up Scott!
This hobbyist was extremely creative and resourceful. It will be a challenge that you are up to overcome and restore this lovely little Tudor home. The lighting fixtures are extremely unusual to see, this will be so interesting to see you work on and make it livable once again. Scott, you have been chosen and now you will shine.
I can imagine the hours of fun a little girl enjoyed playing with this wonderful doll house.
My dad's dollhouse from the 30s has that same green kitchen sink. This was a real labor of love for the original buider. You're doing a wonderful job. Actually I'm seeing some other familiar bits, some a generation older than the 30s. What a little treasure trove!
That radio! Oh my! I had no idea you had so much furniture, and the RADIO ! I can’t get over it! Fibber McGee and Molly! Let’s sit around the fire and listen.
Aloha Scott! Thank you! Interesting how the person who built it must have been an amazing carpenter/electrictrian! So beautiful ! Aloha!
You know what to do in your heart...repair it and let it be what it is...it's amazing it has never been " renovated" it is wonderful as is sir
The attention to detail is amazing in this doll house, WOW!
Of all the homes in all the land, I am happy this home landed with you. You do beautiful work restoring your finds. Ill be watching!
The hand embroidered rugs are in mint condition! I Love the club lounge chair, the radio set and the bathroom pieces the most. Such fun! 😊
I am happy you have all that furniture, dolls and decorations. That make the house even more special. You have something to do the Winter.
That house is stunning and well built. They definitely don't make them like that anymore! I love dollhouses from back in the day. I am literally living in a house that looks like a doll house.

That's such a beautiful old house.
I somehow missed seeing this.
It's got great bones.
My hubby's grandpa handmade a dollhouse for his mom, for a Christmas gift, when she was little.
It is one story and is accessed by removing the folding roof.
He electrified it with tiny lights too.
(Even has glass windows that go up and down, hinged doors, and a working doorbell).
His five sisters played with it, at their house, growing up.
Then it went back to his grandpa's guest room for the grandkids.
When the estate was settled, no one wanted it because it was pretty hammered.
We took it and stored it for over 15 years until our youngest daughter wanted to play with it.
So we cleaned it up and made a few repairs.
She became obsessed with it and played almost exclusively with it, using her littlest Pet Shop animals.
She loved it so much, that she has it stored for her kids someday.
A few years back, her grandmother tried to take it back, to give to another cousin to play with.
It ruffled a few feathers because we had to say no to grandma, my hubby's sister, and young niece.
We knew that it wouldn't come back to us because grandma had "promised" it to the neice and that she could keep it. (Without checking with us first).
Dollhouses definitely have personalities and the people that love them, can have strong attachments to them.
Thanks for the delightul tour.
So many creative touches were put into your dollhouse.
Truĺy amazing!
What a wonderful project! Still in awe of this amazing find of yours! Best wishes, S.
It's the perfect thing for a person who loves nostalgia: you don't have to have the whole house dedicated to it; you now have a whole new category of treasures to look for; and you can rearrange things to your heart's content.
I loved the sturdy little coffee mug waiting on the table. And was that a spittoon?!
I would, however, throw one of those lovely area rugs over that torn bit of carpet upstairs. You wouldn't want someone to trip!
Can't wait for more!
Fascinating, the wiring was amazing. It must have been beautiful when it was first built. I can’t believe he actually made a crawl space
Absoulty beatiful can hardly wait to the the finnished Doll House. Thank You For the sneek peek. Will enjoy watching the restoration process. Please Stay Safe, Happy and Healthly.Have A Wonderful Day
When we look through the windows out it really looks like it's in the neighborhood with the neighboring houses.
Wow what a find! Take your time and enjoy the process of restoring it.
Neat to think back to when the model was built it was a copy of a then "modern home" not a vintage home as we see it now. btw......love those bathroom tiles😉👍
Oh my Word!! You got so many pieces of furniture!!! And all those tiny, DEAR accessories!! Umbrella, cane, carpet, book, lovely vases and candlestick...plus a Wee Jade Elephant!!! Can you imagine the FUN that father had making this for his little girl????🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍❣❣❣❣❣🤗🤗 Must have been a Wonderful Christmas Surprise!!

You can feel the love that went into creating this.
So much furniture and so many accessories! A real treasure trove. I love the umbrella, the little elephant, all of it. I want to move that cute green bench somewhere else. Maybe the kitchen or the porch? I can't wait to see more of your restoration, which I know will be accurate and sensitive. Thanks for sharing!
All the cute tiny accessories for the house are fascinating.
Fabulous!!! I have made doll houses and have owned quite a few! This one is to die for!! Sooo much Love was originally put into making this great toy! I have only seen one other one that comes close and that was made buy your husband for his wife because they had no children and he made all the furniture to for her!

I LOVE this dollhouse!! It seems it's builder built it with care as well as for sturdiness. Really love how it looks before renovation, even. The furniture is wonderful, too! Great video, thank you.
Wonderful! Thank you so much for filming slowly throughout the rooms. It seemed like we were actually walking through it! I love your music choices.
This is just amazing! It would be so cool if you actually knew the history on it. I can’t wait to see your restoration.

Does anybody else remember Colleen Moore's Castle? 30's silent actress. Think many of these era dollhouses were inspired by the dollhouse she built.🤩
Scott, I just found your channel. I love old things but don’t have room to display them anymore so I enjoy living vicariously through you. You are so amusing to watch as well. The doll house is amazing! Someone built it with a lot of skill and love. Can’t wait to see it restored!👍🇨🇦
Thanks and welcome. So glad you found me!!!!!!
Scott ,I am almost as excited over this doll house as you.I am soo happy that it has landed in your hands. I can't wait to see it restored by your expertise.
Thank you so much!
Omg,the dollhouse is incredible,It brings me back to being younger,my Papa build me a barbie dollhouse,and hand made all the furniture,I passed it onto my niece
It's spectacular! I cannot WAIT to watch the transformation!
I haven't seen anyone working on this house. It is so quaint and nostalgic. I really enjoyed what you are doing and can't waite to see part ll.
I was so surprised to find out that it had electricity! I can see how happy this project is making u! Have fun!
Wowwww! I so very much enjoyed this. You are gifted with filming too! Thank you Scott.🧹🏠
Someone put so much love and care in to making this dollshouse its so beautiful thank you for this video!
This is just the most fascinating restoration I've ever seen. Good with hands we use to say back in the day. Double entendre aside. Good for you, my friend.
I could not love this more! You are one of my favorite people!!!
Wow, thank you!
I don’t think I have seen you so excited about any one piece you have found! It’s truly wonderful! Can’t you just think what child or children had this and what fun they had! I had a small doll house but my parents were never into saving old things so who knows what happened to it! My paternal Grandmother gave me my love of things from past eras and I am most appreciative! I got her huge solid wood mahogany sleigh bed that I will never give up!
Love it love it love it! This dollhouse is such a labor of love for the original maker. Now that it's in your hands Scott I know that you will have the same passion as you restore it. Looking forward to seeing the progress! 🙂

I’m just in absolute awe. Almost overwhelming 😔. And bless the little mice who made a cozy home too. I’ve always been curious to look into crawl spaces! This one really delivered the goods!!🙌🏻♥️🐩
You crack me up Scott - you are too funny lol - I wish I could be there hanging over your shoulder ( as I used to do with my Dad) . He taught me as a little girl how to rewire lamps and where to put tubes in radios and TVs when they came along. I love fixing things! I’ll be hanging in there for all your episodes, no matter how long it takes! love to you and the memory of Salem🥰👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Fascinating. I applaud your music choices.
Truly amazing. As you went room to room, I could not help but think about the lovely little girl who received this treasure and the hours that she played with it. Wish they somehow had pictures of her and her grandpa. Absolutely wonderful!
What a wonderful and fun project!
Oh goodness Scott that’s a delightful old house that will keep you occupied & quiet for quite a while. I look forward to your sympathetic restoration.
Wow, they found a lot of the furniture Can't wait to see the finished doll house. That living room was amazing and the iron dogs in the fireplace was the finishing touch to it.
What a sweet little house. My neighborhood library growing up had a giant furnished doll house behind a glass cabinet for people to look at. I loved going and sitting on the floor in front of it and dreaming about getting to play with it 🥰
This was obviously made with a lot of detail and love. I always think when I attend an estate sale and very personal things like this doll house, or photo albums are offered for sale, wasn’t there any relative who could take these heirlooms and pass them onto other family? My husband and I always buy the photo albums nobody cares to keep. We have a large collection we always like to look through from time to time. Scott, it’s almost as if we care more for their families than they do.
👏👏👏👏🍀🍀💕💕 Looking forward to seeing the progress! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
What a beautiful home!!
Your house is simply adorable and is going to be so cozy. I would love to drink a cup of coffee at that table. Looking so forward to upcoming episodes. I love everything about it.
You're restoring it! Great! I saw the video of you bringing it home and had to wonder...... 💖
What a wonderful doll house! A great project and hunt for pieces of furniture to fill it! Love it! 🙂❤
Wonderful to watch! I have the dollhouse my grandfather built for my mother and her sister in the 1940s, and though it does not have the detail yours does, I will treasure it always! 😍
Please document what you can about the house, who built it and when, for whom, list of owners and changes through time. Something that goes with the house to each new owner in case it is separated from your family. I have found people online who acquire unwanted houses and burn them, it's horrible . They film them on fire. I was searching for a mini structure for firemen and found this evil
What fun Scott, thank you, for sharing your journey with us.
at certain angles, it really does look as though one is really peering into someone's home...so realistic
LOVE IT! So many little details that scream that era. The little radio in the liv rm. is darling. Happy you are bringing it back to life. p.s. Looks like they redecorated in the 70's and put up wood paneling. 😊 That's gotta go. lol
I agree with Martha! You are also one of my favorite people!😊
