I found some time this week to stick in some of my recent purchases, to add more detail to the Fairfield rooms.
I had purchased a 1:24 scale dressed bar cabinet at the Arnhem dollshouse show in Holland, hoping it would fit into the Fairfield. I've put it next to the sofas and I think I like it there.
This is a view looking through the window.
I also added a few of the faux books I made several weeks ago, to the coffee table.
In the master bedroom, I added the china floral arrangement to the nightstand, and the Delft blue china opening trinket box to the dressing table - both purchased in Arnhem.
In the little girl's room, I added some of these strange little 'dolls' which I bought at the Kempton Show quite cheaply. They also had them adorning the ends of cocktail sticks - I assume they are some kind of party favour made in China or somewhere. These were glued into a balsa cabinet, but I was able to pry several of them out to use as toys.
In this shot, I've added the tiny angel I bought some time ago, and two of the new dolls to the wall shelf, the tiny piggy bank I bought in Arnhem to the top of the bookcase, a doll on the shelf of the bedhead, a dressing table set I bought from Judith of In Some Small Way to the dresser, and another doll on the butterfly bench.
In the kitchen, I added the pink china teapot and four cups and saucers from Arnhem to the open shelf in the kitchen cabinet.
It's amazing how long it took to do all of the above. I've still got to assemble the toy castle that I bought in Arnhem, which will go in the boy's room.
My dust cover seems to be working well - it's keeping the dust off the Fairfield but was easy to remove to access the rooms, and I can see through it to admire the interiors.

House is looking so wonderful, I love looking inside, just like a real house. It's so fun now to find all the small wonders for the house.
ReplyDeleteI love this house! Everything you added looks wonderful! A very cozy cottage!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are working on the Fairfield!
ReplyDeleteYou are very fortunate to be able to access so many different Fairs. There is only one per year in my state, and that is the largest in Australia but not large compared to Kensington or those you attend. It is great to see the additions you are making to your house. Where do you keep all your dollshouses and roomboxes?
