This is what it looked like before I started working on it:
{Before}
Then I gave it a makeover after being inspired by a dollhouse in the Pottery Barn Kids catalog, and transformed it to this:
{After}
Unfortunately, the next transformation this dollhouse went through was not that pretty! During some episodes of rough play, the dormer got knocked off, the door broke, the flower pots got broken, & most of the flowers in the window boxes went missing! I glued the dormer back on, replaced the flowers & pots, & bought a new door. When I installed the new door (I'm totally making it sound like it was a real door, when in reality, I just glued it on!) I realized it was shorter than the opening. To fill the leftover space, I constructed some steps made from some leftover trim.
This is how it turned out:
{After the After!}
Much better!
Hope you had a great weekend!
