I decided to show pictures of the interior, they were originally suppose to go with the pictures of the bathroom. I thought that I would finish the house soon (haha).
I used mat board to cover my walls to hid the wires of the lights, something I had never done before. I bought a precut assortment pack from Hobby Lobby under $10. I think I even used the 40% off coupon and it was enough to do the whole house with some left over. The mat board walls are not secured to the real walls because I think I want to change two lights out and I dislike the look of two rooms, so the stairs, floors, trims and arch in the stair way are not yet attached. The living room and dining rooms are my least favorite rooms. I like the furniture pieces themselves but not the overall look. I feel like I am not showing the furniture in the best way, maybe too much stuff, rugs, wrong wall colors, too plain??? I have fallen out of love, ugh!

I found this cool Christmas ornament at Tuesday Morning Store $3, I didn't even know if it worked. I love how it changes color. I added a link below to show a video in action.
Hi Jocelyn! I think that there is something in the air that is causing a rash of dollhouse makeovers to begin all around the world, and it sounds like you are feeling the need to call in "Dr. Make Over" too. :D I Love this townhouse especially the girl's bedroom. But when you are feeling that something is not right then it is time to do or Re-do whatever is troubling you. I am in the same space myself, but it is never - just change one thing, oh no.... that would be too simple. Be prepared to do more than what you thought you will be doing.
ReplyDeleteOne thing is sure to lead to another. :))

Thanks for the warning, I just need to get pass the idea of starting over.
DeleteI really like your idea to use matboard to cover up wiring. I struggle with wiring and this is a great solution to my problems. Thanks for sharing. BTW I am a fan of your work.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much and I am glad my idea helps.
DeleteHello Jocelyne,
ReplyDeleteThe pictures are great! It is a beautiful house. I know how you feel, having fallen out of love with rooms I've made. Your furniture is beautiful so at least you have a great starting point. Think about it, and I know you will work wonders for both rooms.
Big hug,
Giac
Personally, I love your stuff...but i think the thing I'm not loving are the rugs...too many and they just seem "too much" for the room.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I think I will start by taking them out and then take a fresh look.
DeleteI love the black and white hall way. The ornament/chandellier is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks, it was a bold choice for me but I love it. I think the plain walls in the other two rooms is whats bothering me now.
DeleteThanks everyone for your comments and encouragement.
