This isn't a normal sales site, but I just bumped into this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Dollhouses/comments/awlnwe/hello_i_am_seeking_wise_counsel_on_my_mothers/
I suggested in the comments they post it for sale on this forum. I feel like this is a loving place to sell a dollhouse with people who really know their stuff.
This poor thing is in rough shape. I have seen this CL ad since before Christmas, and I always feel bad for the house when I see it.:

I assume it's a custom house. It looks like it would be fun to restore. I really find it interesting there are screw in light fixtures. Maybe they used Christmas bulbs or something?
Thank you for that tip. I didn't realize using hot glue for the construction was a thing. I definitely plan to have it on the wall, so I will use wood glue for sure. Is there a trusted brand I should use, or just any old wood glue?
I just wanted to say hello. I am a dollhouse and miniatures fan and have been most of my life. I help my dad build my childhood dollhouse and have dabbled in room dioramas since them. I've just purchased a Mckinley kit from eBay and I am looking forward to receiving it and building it. I will be surfing through the forum while I anxiously wait.
