This little house started life as a tampax box. Yes humble beginnings but it has that handy dandy little insert flap for closing. Which is great for the front door. The dolls house is loosely inspired by my real life farmhouse that Mr Hollywood and I are renovating. (I may start another blog just for the Charentaise Farmhouse - that's if anyone is interested in my old farmhouse).
It's been a beautiful sunny week here in SW France and I've been busy decorating the tampax box and turning it into a dolls house. I was just finishing up painting the roses on the wallpaper when Céleste wondered by. She's been looking for a house in this area of Shelf Corner. We chatted for awhile and I invited her to stay for a cup of tea and slice of cake. Anyway, cut a long story short, she moved in that very afternoon. I helped her hang the curtains and put up the chandelier... apparently according to Céleste once the chandeliers are up and in place, it just feels like home!
She's French. . .!!! Never mind the chandelier, I'm just happy if I can find the kettle. . .
Talking of kettles, I'm off to have a cup of tea with Lottie over at Paper Saturday. . .come with me, she loves company, then I'm going to Sunday Sketches :) x !!!
That's my Fun and Nonsense, what's yours? :)
