Here is an armoire I painted and added fabric inserts to. I think it will have mirror in the centre panel.
And lastly a pic of the staircase - not yet finished. Not exciting, but just so you can see!

Chantilly stonework
It's been a while and I was procrastinating a bit with the stonework, but it is now done and has some paint on it. Yet to add the verandah and trim, and finish the paperclaying.

Wow the house looks great, love the windows, your stonework looks good and the staircase, a lot of work has gone into it. The armoire is beautiful, I love them in 1:1 scale too. It will be beautiful when you fill it with goodies.

ReplyDeleteIt's looking great. I've picked out the Chantilly for my next house.
ReplyDeleteThe design of this dollhouse reminds me of the Belle Epoque villas I saw in Deuville, France. The dated from about 1900. The style was not restricted to that location. It was also popular in Belgium, German and other locations. Architectural pattern books of the era were a big influence on the spread of this style.

I took quite a few photos of this type of house 3 years ago. I will post some on my blog for you later this week.
