New Playroom

 
Caitlyn used her birthday money to purchase a new set of playroom furniture. This little wooden set is called Ryan's Room and includes the bunk bed with those cute red gingham mattresses and pillows as well as the table and benches, toy chest, wagon, rocking horse, and little wooden cars.



The girls have embellished with their own knitted coverlets...




The little cardboard easel (above) was cut from the box...
and more blocks and toys for the playroom...


Kitchen Set-Up



Maggie's Closet



Our youngest, Asheley, has had her eye on this little Maggie's Closet (and here's Lizzy's Closet in purple) for some time now...so as part of Christmas...it's now hers! The scale of the doll is slightly larger than the other dollhouse dolls but it does make it easier for little fingers to change all those adorable outfits!




It comes with several clothing items including a nightgown and night cap as well as white pantaloons, a bag purse, floppy hat, and backpack...all with cute little plastic hangers...






Asheley's favorite is this lace trimmed skirt...
that goes all the way down to her shoes!!


Dollhouse Babies


These are some homemade baby dolls for the dollhouse children...







My children made the heads and faces. I formed the 'bodies' then they stuffed the pillowed 'bodies' and sewed up the final seams. They chose the hair from embroidery floss that I stitched on in various 'styles'...depending on who wanted long tresses, boy hair, or shorter curls.
