Goombas, get to work!


I happened to peek into the doll house last night. What I found was quite astonishing! Two finger puppet monsters, aka "The Goombas", working diligently at the ironing board and the sewing machine. I'm glad to see someone's getting some work done around here! Mopping is next, guys!



Don't mind the graffiti-ridden interior, it's all part of the "beautifying" design scheme (V. wanted a pink "Barbie house"... and took her commercial frustrations out on our lovely, all-natural wooden dollhouse... Rudolf Steiner would give us an 'F', if he believed in that).

LOL! That is so funny! Our beautiful barn has stamps all over the roof. Argh.

You might ask a wallpaper store whether they have any old sample books they don't want any more. The sheet sizes of those might do well for decorating a dollhouse. (My sister used to make paper boxes out of them and sell those.)

I love it -- purple streaks on the wall and all!! The ugly finger puppets working away with beautiful cloth gives it such a fairy tale feel...

Hahaha :) Glad y'all like it.

Magda,
I have some acrylic craft paint that I might paint over the graffiti with. I love your wallpaper idea, too! Very cute.

That is so funny! My girl's beautiful bunk beds have princess stickers all over them...

How funny! I found one of Spunky's little babies all covered up with little blankets the other night. I thought, "oh, how sweet". Then I looked closed and realized it was the inserts to her cloth diapers-- wet inserts! Yuck :)
