:D Hi everyone,

"Hi my name is Deb and I am addicted to dollshouses" :cheers:

As you can see form NZ, not a huge hobbie down this end of the world, but with a bit of research and some fantastic internet shops I am starting to get a good resource of material...having a mother that lives in England helps also! The regular parcels through the mail!

I have been "addicted" as people like to call it, for a year now and have worked hard on my first house, I am soon to pick up my second, and not make the mistakes I did on the first. I enjoy making things for it out stuff, getting projects off the net, it's all fun. My friend think i'm mad, :thumbup: but they soon ohhh and ahhh when they come to look!

My husband likes it cause it keeps me quiet! My spare room looks like a mini construction zone! But it's fun.

Look forward to getting lots of ideas from a wealth of knowledge out there...I would love a beacon hill! maybe next year!

Cheers Deb :lol:

Welcome, Deb! I visited NZ (mainly Auckland) back in the day. Always thought if I had to retire abroad, it would be to NZ. :lol:

What house did you build?

When you have 5 posts, you can create an album. We're all waiting for pictures!

Thank you all for your awesome welcomes! NZ is a beautiful as all the propagander says, after travelling it's always nice to come back to. :D

At the moment I am working on gardens for the house I am doing, and trying to figure out where to put all the furniture i have collected. Starting to plan how i will do the rooms in the next house, raised floors and wood floors, I hear ice blocks sticks are the way to go with this so will give it a try... :lol:

:lol: to the forum, Deb. I don't know what has happened to Glen, our other resident Kiwi, but the last we heard he was working on a Haunted House kit.

Do feel free to jump in and share pictures and tips gleaned from those building "mistakes"/ learning opportunities :wave:
