The Most Wonderful Dollhouse Book
By Lynn, on May 7th, 2008
It is! And it came to me in the mail yesterday from my sweet friend, Alana.
It’s true I was a bit tired when I came home yesterday, but this book very much lifted my spirits when I saw it in the mailbox and then even more when I looked at it last evening and just marveled at all the things I can make with Princess of the Universe!
This book has very clear instructions and has many things in it that have already set my mind to work. It’s called The Most Wonderful Dollhouse Book and it’s by Millie Hines (by Butterick, copyright 1979). It’s a treasure! 
Alana, thank you!! I have to run off this morning for more training, but I will soon be home! Home again. And you’ll be seeing more of our dollhouse adventures.
Big Cyber Hugs,
Lynn

About Lynn
I am the mother of four delightful children: a 23-year-old son, a 20-year-old son, a 17-year-old son, and a bright and bubbly 13-year-old daughter. I share an apartment home with my 17-year-old son and 13-year-old daughter. My little home on the internet is called Rose Cottage because of my love for gardening, roses, and all things romantic and Victorian. Welcome.
I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I do medical transcription from home. My hobbies include making sweet little dolls from clay who are named and have their own stories to tell. I also make old-fashioned brooches. These are for sale in my Etsy shop.
For 13 years continuously, I homeschooled some or all of our four children, but the time came that our homeschool had to be closed. It was the end of a beautiful chapter in my life. I will always be a strong supporter of homeschooling and I will continue to review books and maintain my homeschool website, The Healthy Homeschool. The Players

My Symphony
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884

Hello Lynn,
I was looking at your skirt tutorial and just printed out the instructions…pray for me! because this will be the *first* time I have ever sewn a piece of clothing!
Also I wanted to say how much I enjoy *walking* through your garden with you and your thoughts..
My children love dollhouses too!
Thank you for your daily inspiration.
I will be praying for you too.
Blessings to you.
Carrie.
So happy you like it. As soon as I saw this book, I knew it was meant to be yours!
Carrie, thank you so much for your kind words. Let me know how your sewing goes! I enjoyed visiting your blog.
Alana, that was really, really sweet that you sent me the book. I can’t wait until my training is done and I am home and have a bit more time again to get into the book and do some of the doll house projects there!
