The Beginning


This marks my first attempt at the dollhouse I have waiting for since I was ten. It began with a visit to my father's friend Reed and his then wife Rose. Reed and Rose lived in a small home and I remember two things very vividly -- the very fat cat that had accidently jumped in the toilet and Rose's huge dollhouse that took up most of their front room. To be fair to my parents, as an only child, if I had asked for a dollhouse my father would have built me a mansion. But, I didn't want a child's dollhouse. I wanted Rose's dollhouse -- an adult's dollhouse with all the lights and perfect furnishings.

On December 26th, with the support of my handy partner in crime, I picked out a dollhouse from Hobby Lobby (with a 40% off coupon) and lugged it home to give it a try.
