My Dolls House Liz Coleman

Slide 2

Welcome to my Dolls House My Dolls House was built for me about 11 years ago by the partner of a friend. The house was based around plans by Gable End Designs. I wanted a house which I would like to live in, complete with tea-rooms and a spiral staircase. I hope you enjoy looking around my house.

Slide 3

Just like my own house, my Dolls House has evolved over time, one similarity in both is my ability to clutter! My Dolls House tells a story, a story of friendships, of gifts and of family. Many of the pieces inside my house have a story all of their own...

Slide 4

Teddy Bears here, there and everywhe re! Many teddy bears live in my Dolls House. For a long time I didnt want people in my house. I find many dolls house figures look too plastic and lack personality. I bought a couple of teddies and friends have added to my collection over the years. I crochet blankets to keep them warm and make food for their teddy bear picnics!

Slide 5

Tea Room Many a happy afternoon can be spent in the tea room. I make a lot of the food from fimo with my son, Jordan. Last year he got carried away making pork pies and tarts. I found them everywhere in saucepans, frying pans and cups. Jordan and I made the figures in the picture on the left. I think theyve spend the evening enjoying the wine.

Slide 6

The lounge/living room holds lots of memories for me: A miniature book bought for me by my friend Gwen and a 3 piece suite painstakingly recovered one afternoon by my friend Stuart. Stuart had bought his friend over to say hi and have a cup of tea. His poor friend spent the afternoon carefully ironing bits of material and looking a bit confused!

Every Dolls House needs a dolls house......and every teddy needs a blanket to keep them warm.
