Thanks, Kelly Just this morning I finished the baseboard in the Night Nursery and calling done. Except for furniture and light fixtures, lol. I am looking for vintage baby bottles to make into multiple chandeliers , lol. You might not be able to imagine how fun this has been! It's bigger than me..and I mean more than size. Thanks for reading- Beth

There isn't a ton of close-up photographs of the Bradford, but mostly it has been finding flooring and wallpaper that is very very close. I thought gingham on point would be easy (Parent's bathroom) but it has not been. I now have some new oil cloth coming, and I will turn it to get it to run the right way. One of the old wallpapers has me batty. It has a 'shimmer' in photographs. My daughter and her family went down on school vacation and did some photographing, but her photos are no better than published ones, lol.

It is just too hard for me to imagine 1:48- but I guess all scales have their issues. I will think about 1:48 as I slog through painting more moldings and trims with boring white again today, lol.

I can't even fathom miniature accessories in 1:48, let alone finding or creating 23 rooms of furniture! Good luck!!!

Thanks!

Oh no! I've gone through all the boxes and cannot find the set of bunnies I bought a month ago for Christopher's room, lol...where the heck can they be? Yes, found some more last night on Etsy-lol- now I will have 6 instead of 3!!!!

Thank you Holly for that book title. Faith Bradford made the house in the Smithsonian in the late 40's, replicating 2 houses she displayed in the 30's. She meant though, for the house to represent 1915. Many of the pieces she used are still available, so I am purchasing what I can, and using 'close enough' until the exact piece comes along. There is a lot of German, TynieToy and Lynnfield furniture in the house.

Thank you Holly!

Hello, all! I am recreating the Faith Bradford house in the Smithsonian, and thought maybe dollhouse fans would like to see it. faithbradfordagain.blogspot.com If you go to the three lines top left, there's a drop down and 'archive'. If you click on a month you will see all of the postings on the blog, oldest (beginning) at the bottom. I'd love to hear comments, and if any of you know where I can buy any of the pieces in the original, please let me know! Beth
