Discovered in the top of the cupboard...

My mum made this dollhouse for my birthday twenty-something years ago. Many happy hours were spent with it again this past weekend. Everything is handmade. The rooms can be shifted into various configurations, the furniture is made mostly of balsa wood, the dolls (modelled after our family at the time - Dad, Mum, myself, Hester and baby Arlene) and the kitchen crockery is made from fimo. I'm sure there used to be cutlery as well, but that seems to have disappeared over the years.

ah that's the coolest doll house ever. I wondered what had happened to it.
