The Big Reveal!

The Living Room:

The 'wallpaper' throughout the house is actually wrapping paper from World Market. I splurged on the living room sofa and chairs on eBay because honestly, who can pass up hot pink velvet?? I found the sconces and mantel also on eBay and the coffee table is a mini bud vase I already had, turned upside down. I made the pillows out of gold and white greek key that I've been dying to use, and the topiary trees are actually place card holders from Michael's.

The Bedroom:

I covered the walls in the bedroom with grasscloth and Will painted her de Gournay-esque panels that I hung around the room. The bed and the bathtub were from my grandmother's dollhouse and the bedding and rug came from my fabric stash. I ordered the chair on eBay, although it was supposed to be pink and white check!

The Sewing Room:

The vintage sewing machine is one of the first things I ordered on eBay, along with the vintage phone and ironing board. However, I didn't realize how tiny they were until they came in the mail. I'm sure they'll be lost before the weekend is over but I just couldn't help myself!

The Kitchen:

I found the Melissa and Doug Kitchen Furniture Set and pink wooden highchair both on eBay and then attached the wading bird onto the hutch. The gold bike (with a kickstand!) was from Etsy.

Luckily P went down for a nap with these guys this afternoon because I'm spent!!

The rundown...

We got the actual dollhouse at Michael's for $20 (with a 40% off coupon).

I painted the outside with white base acrylic paint and the floors with black semi-gloss interior/exterior paint. I applied the wallpaper and grasscloth with Super Tacky Tape and mod-podge, and then finished the outside edges with gold paint pen.

The chandelier in the living room is a decorative ball that I painted with gold paint pen and hung from the ceiling with a thumbtack. I threaded a needle, knotted it at the eye, and stuck it all the way in. So far so good!

I dug through old magazines for the artwork and then mod-podged them onto wooden squares and composition book covers. Then I attached everything onto the walls with Super Tacky Tape. All the bedding and rugs are from my scraps and I filled the pillows with a little batting. Accessorizing was definitely my favorite part!!

Happy 3rd Birthday P!!
