what is there to say? there are lots of sleepovers, someone is usually sick in bed, people take turns cooking, and the furniture gets moved around all the time. she is quite into dollhouse play these days- often while listening to her audiobooks. I have fun peeking in to see what her little folks are up to from one minute (or day) to the next. sometimes she comes to me in a flurry of excitement wanting to know what fabric she can use to make doll blankets, or if it's okay to put real tea in tiny cups for her dolls, or some other such question.
my mom made her the little balsa and bass wood dollhouse for Christmas. she made all of the furniture, too, along with a toilet shaped out of sculpey clay, tiny books and mail and food, a fridge and oven that open and close....... well, you get the picture.
fun, fun, fun.
Wow! Totally impressed by your mom's skills!! The scenes are great, too!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness my mom is so talented with this kind of stuff. she'll make a dollhouse and then a little canoe. a stuffed animal and a nightgown, a little crocheted purse for Claire...... she just loves it!
DeleteI love the scenes, too! it's such fun to peek in and see what all her little people are up to ;)
Well, is it OK to put real tea in tiny cups?
ReplyDeleteof course!
DeleteLovely pictures of a grandma's love and a child's appreciation.
ReplyDeletethose two have such a fun and sweet relationship~
DeleteLove that doll house to bits!
ReplyDeleteisn't it adorable? the painted kitchen floor is my favorite. and the cabin dollhouse was made for Claire's oldest cousin years ago by her great-grandparents' neighbor :)
Deleteyour mom made that!! so cool! i love dollhouse scenes as well :) my girls have access to my scrap fabric basket for doll/dollhouse making :) it's so fun to watch what they come up with.
ReplyDeleteyes, she is very talented in most things artsy and crafty.
DeleteI really do love happening upon these little scenes- there's always a story there :)
