I feel very lucky to have this kit for a 1/20 scale Japanese Inn and Spa called a Ryokan. It was originally sold by subscription in Italy and Japan, and it came in 110 boxes!

These aren't works of art, but they were all relatively quick and easy to make.

These are things I acquire but haven't used yet.

When I got to some of the last kits for my ryokan, there was this insert in one of the kits.
It looks like DeAgostini started a subscription for this house in 2007. I would love to have it, the detail looks amazing! So far, I can't find anything out about it on the internet.

Years ago, I built a San Franciscan for my granddaughter. Now she wants a blue Orchid!

These are some photos of dollhouses I saw in the museum in Shelburne, Vermont.
I am posting the outsides and a few roomboxes here, but took so many pictures of the interiors that I'll never get them all uploaded here, so the interiors are on my Pinterest board. https://www.pinterest.com/kathi17a/dollhouses-at-the-shelburne-museum/
 

This is some furniture I made recently from HOM kits using fabric I bought at JoAnns.

My Grandsons wanted me to build them dollhouses for their action figures. Since the six year old really likes stores and restaurants, I decided to build the Taft for him so he could have a store downstairs, and a cafe upstairs.

This is the second Brimbles I have built.
This year, my two grandsons asked for dollhouses for their action figures. (The figures are about 5 or 6 inches tall). I decided to do Brimbles Mercantile for one, and the Taft General Store for the other one.
I still have to do finish work on this, but it's pretty near complete!
My husband cut a piece of plywood to make a wall so the second story would have two rooms like the Taft.

Here are some photos of beautiful houses I have seen which give good ideas ideas for bashing dollhouses
