I love everything about crafts. I have tried everything from scrapbooking, cardmaking, sewing, drawing, painting, knitting, crochet, dolls house making, etc. Basically you name it, I've probably tried it. I started this blog to display my numerous crafts, my inspiration and maybe a few tips on what I have learned. Thank you for visiting my blog and happy reading!

Grosvenor Hall doll house

In 2011 my wonderful husband bought me the Grosvenor Hall dolls house kit from eBay for my birthday. Since then I have completed a few things on it but unfortunately not as much as I would like to have completed.
In my opinion Grosvenor Hall is one of the most impressive doll houses that you can buy for not a lot of money. I've posted the link below that takes you to the Dolls House Emporium website, which includes information and photos of this gorgeous house.

When I finally opened my three boxes that contained the house the first thing I did was to prime everything with a 50/50 mixture of water and PVA glue to seal the wood. Then I painted all the walls and floors with white emulsion and started putting the house together. (sorry for the poor quality of the photos)






















I knew from the moment I opened the box that this project was going to be time and money consuming, but so far I have enjoyed building this house. As soon as I have sort all my photos out I will be posting photos of my entrance hall and kitchen that are nearly completed. Bye for now!
