    personally I'd add a plant or something for that pop of color and life. there are plastic buxus bolls where you can just pull 1 segment out of and stick it in a tiny pot and it would already look like a miniature plant. I do this all the time for stop motion videos and stuff where I need to make miniatures for. That said I really like the idea of dollhouse make overs.

    I like how you re-decorated the dollhouse. It needs some little books, a sink in the kitchen (dolls need clean dishes), and your idea for little rugs would have made it look more homier. I think your friend will love it! She can add the books, rugs, etc. right? It looks a darn sight better than it did when it was all those garish colours as a Barbie house!

    You've made this dolls house look so stunning and stylish. I love how you painted and decorated it. What sort of style will your new dolls house be? I hope we will get to see it, you're very talented. I've just started making miniatures and I'm currently making a Book Nook that's going to be an old Victorian style miniature library. It's so much fun to make miniatures even though they are fiddly. If you want to learn more about making things in miniature, I recommend visiting Ara Bentley's channel, called Bentley House Minis.
