Wow.. go shapeways! This table is great!.. I love the colours you've picked for it too. Very stylish.

Your table setting is on point too.. not to much clutter there, just nice clean lines and enough so showcase that great Mac n Cheese. :D

No kidding!  I'd be lost without them.  They have such great modern pieces.

I thought the chairs had real pillows on them, they look really great! I'm very impressed with the cutlery, is it etched metal? Looks so delicate and perfect! I just want to reach in and grab a bite of that macaroni

I believe it is.  It's a whole set of metal flatware and serving pieces that you can clip off a sheet and bend.  The knives and some of the serving pieces have extra handle bits that you can glue on to make them thicker.  I was going to give you a link to where I got it (in the UK at A Trifle Small), but something must be wrong with their site.  When I click on their headings, I get "no products found."

Ah yes I've seen those sets before but never tried them, now I wish I did as they look much better than pewter, great find! 

Nom nom! 

This looks so great! I've been eyeing that Shapeways table and chairs. The colors you picked are perfect and I love how your cabinets turned out. You're really tempting me to do a midcentury modern house in half scale. :o

Thanks, Emily!  Your input on the countertops really helped.  I am so much happier with them now.  And by all means, do try a midcentury.  :-)  It's such a great period.  If you don't want to do the Merrimack, I wonder if you could get a set of the Betsy McCall plans and scale them down.

I do like the Merrimack but I so don't need another dollhouse! Especially considering I have Brookwood, Highland, and an RGT Contemporary Ranch kits in my stash. I wish I could shrink one of those. I don't know if I'll ever get around to building another 1:12 dollhouse.

Now that I'm thinking about it, though, I do have a half scale Colonial that could be decorated in mid-century style...

Look great, what time is breakfast?
