Accessorizing Kitchen, Lounge & Dining Room
NOTE
The following article by Julia Morrison is an excellent guide for the basic items you will need to accessorize a dollhouse Kitchen, Lounge & Dining Room. Of course, you have decisions to make before making it a shopping list. In what era does your project take place? (I chose Edwardian images for this post). Who lives in your dollhouse, aristocrats or commoners? Is it a dollhouse? A room box might give you more space in which to work. Are you recreating a memory, copying a the room from a painting or photograph? What’s your budget?
Also, be sure to use appropriate room names. For instance, the Edwardians did not have a lounge. “Parlor” could be used as a family room or maybe it’s a “ladies sitting room.” Men hang out in a “Study.”
