havanaholly Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) Use agood sturdy weight smooth paper and a small diameter dowel to shape your plates, and with a couple of coats of clear nail enamel your slates ought to look just fine!

fov Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 @MurielSeveral years ago I got some nice dishes from A Trifle Small. They're only shipping within the UK during the pandemic, but that won't be a problem for you!

Nail polish remover will get rid of that finish and loosen the glue. After that you can paint and embellish to your heart's desire. This is also a good way of learning furniture construction if you want to make you own. Oh my goodness, I had no idea about the nail polish remover! I can't wait to play this weekend! Thanks!

biomom Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Despite not having a Fairfield, and not being into 70s decor or skeletons, I thoroughly enjoyed this Bentley Mini video: Impressed by her artistry (and honesty!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicki DeVries Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Can someone help me determine the scale size of our dollhouse? It is from S/W Crafts who are no longer in business. The D.H. was purchased in 1978, and called Colonial Doll House Model #412. It's a 3-story farmhouse style and we're trying to sell it now. Someone has asked me what the scale size is and I don't have a clue. Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Vicki, half scale is 1:24, meaning that something that is 24" (2') high in real life is only 1" high in 1:24 scale; a foot-long real life ruler would only be 1/2" long in 1:24 scale. Measure a door or ceiling height in the house you live in and in your dollhouse and you ought to be able to figure if the scale is 1:12 (1'=1" in scale) or 1:24 (1'=1/2' in scale).
