Dollhouse heaven

The most beautiful dollhouses I think I've ever seen are created by Lea.

Her houses never cease to amaze me. The detail she gets into every scene is second to none and it's so easy to imagine yourself in her little world. Her houses inspire me endlessly and now I am making a house based on her florist.

Here you can see some of her teeny cats that she makes. Their sweet little faces are priceless!

A little house to inspire

Welcome to my blog! Given it is my first post, I thought I'd post some pictures of one of my most favourite dollhouses, the lace house by Liz Le Bosse. She makes absolutely stunning dollhouses, and this is one of the best. It's so sweet. You can see the exterior and some of the rooms below.

It opens at the side as well as the back, and part of the roof lifts to access the upstairs bedroom. The last pic, the den, is one of my favourite rooms. I can imagine it as a tiny study with a comfy armchair and lady's desk. One day I will re-create this house in half inch scale.
