    I like the repeated elements: the pink flowers on the table and in the painting, the fruit on the buffet and in the painting, even the lace runner on the buffet looks like the scarf around your mother’s head in the photo. And of course lots of dishes and gold, gold, gold! The changing and arranging was worth it. It came together very well, in my humble opinion ! A very fine room for the dolls to celebrate the holidays!

    I just love your channel!Even my husband pops over to see what I am talking about as I watch you. I think you are adorable. Your commentary as you work is so natural and fun to hear. We are in our 80's and my love of miniatures is slowly getting attention from my husband. But I don't have a dolls house, although I want a nice old wood one if I ever get a bargain. We oldsters don't have much extra cash these days.

      What a Wonderful and KIND Compliment! It's nice to have someone to talk to miniatures about! I spent years making things with no one to tell except my Dad! It's wonderful to talk and share here on my channel. It's sheer JOY to know someone ENJOYS my chattering on about what I'm doing and making! I hate to hear that someone who loves miniatures doesn't have a dollhouse. I totally understand about not having alot of extra cash to buy miniatures, because when I started as a CHILD ALL I had was scraps remnants and trash. My earliest Dollhouses I MADE from cardboard boxes. i hope you do find someone who gives you a bargain that includes some FUN extras!!! Thank you for being here on this journey with me, I appreciate you for sharing , Take Care.

    The vases look great in the china cabinet. My grandparents kept unused vases in theirs. I love that you have your great-grandmother's miniature vase- such a special treasure. 🥰 My grandmother had a set of 1/6-scale china in a 1/6-scale china cabinet hanging on the wall in her dining room. They're in our house now, and I wouldn't trade them for any amount of money. The dining room looks almost like a real-life dining room now, though I agree it needs some curtains. 😄 Speaking of things the camera reveals... 😉

    What a treat watching you stock the china cabinet. It reminds me so much of the china cabinet my great Aunties had in their dining room. So special to have your great Grandmother's piece in there! Love the family photo over the buffet. It looks so natural there. I look at this room and it makes me think of my great Auntie. She would very much approve of your decor! 🥰

    How precious having a tiny family heirloom in your dolls china cabinet. It all looked so perfect.
    I can totally relate to the camera showing up dusty details, I just made a wall mounted hat stand with mirror, and after I took the photos of it I realised the mirror had dirty smears all over it! And here I thought it was nice and clean hahaha

    Hello Gretchen 😊 I think it's remarkable how much the miniature cabinet looks like the one in the photo..And no the camera doesn't lie..does it?!? That was one of the first things I noticed when I started recording...but it is also a good help to see things I can't while I am creating...like a magnifying glass..right! The China arrangement worked out very well! Unfortunately there isn't a dining room in the farmhouse..so I love seeing miniature rooms that my house doesn't have..Thank You for sharing! 🥰

      Hello Troy! Thank you so much for watching and Your feedback! I am glad to hear you are enjoying my channel am sorry that you feel insulted by the term DOLLS. It is not intended as negative at all. It is a term of endearment. As a child MY DOLLS, (Male and Female) were precious to me and still are. This is a "DOLL" HOUSE channel . EVERYTHING I create is Because of My Actual DOLLS. All the residents of All the houses, (male and female) are DOLLS. I'm a little confused by you reference. It is unfortunate that you feel that way Troy.
