The Georgian dollhouse is unique for many reasons ...
but mostly because I have hand made so many parts, from furniture to the
assembling & finishing of metal kits. Below are just a few of the
special items I made for this house.
|
|
Front bay windows
have copper tops. The copper was painstakingly
formed with seams. Chemical patina was used to
turn the copper green.
 |
|
These are the fireplace hearths. Georgian homes
had fireplaces in almost every room (for heat).
I've made 5 plus the kitchen cooking hearth. Each
has real brick walls.

Custom sink &
Work Table made of solid cherry.

I searched
diligently for that "Welsh" dresser so common in Georgian homes,
but to no avail. So, I built this one from cherry wood
using a pattern in my dollhouse books. All the dishes are
handmade!

Phoenix
white metal kit - assembled but unpainted
This
is the kitchen fireplace/hearth.
Here's the finished stove
painted black with gold accents. A brass drying
rack will be installed above the stove.
There is a colorful delft tile treatment on the back and
side walls of the hearth.

Custom staircase. The last three steps were cut off and turned
on an angle. Then a new landing step was made. All the stair treads and sides are cut from 1/16"
cherry.

I recently took a class on making "swags &
tails" given by Judee Williamson & Nicole Walton Marble.
This is the window treatment I made at that workshop. Not
too bad for a first attempt!
