I decided it was time to make some curtains for the bedroom window in the now 'get away mini house' to soften it up a little bit.
I took some white fabric and ironed down a hem all around. Then with my most talented dainty fingers I hand stitched a running stitch at four places, vertically, evenly spaced, across my piece. Then I pulled up the threads and tied a knot up at the top so now I had a little balloon valance. I used a little wooden stick and cut it to size and hot glued my valance down to it. Then I took some tiny lace and glued it to the top of the valance to make it a little bit pretty!
Kinda cute, don't you think?
Me and my plates! I had made some Mary Englebreit plates and thought they would be perfect for the bedroom, so I poked them up on the wall. Really they're poked up with a little bit of glue!
Hope you like my tiny little balloon valance.
Be a bunch of sweeties,
Shelia ;)

Adorable. It has reminded me that I need to re-glue the curtain in my classroom doll house.

ReplyDeleteStunning, I am in the process of 'doing up' an old dollhouse so the perfect addition. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLovely way to dress the windows! I love that your dollshouse is very much in your style!
ReplyDeleteLove the dollhouse. You are so talented to sew up those pretty little mini curtains. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI had a dollhouse when I was little...but then my sister, who was 3 yrs younger than me, painted the appliances in the kitchen and some of the furniture with BRIGHT red nail polish. She was supposed to be napping, while I was at school. I don't know what became of the dollhouse after that. I didn't want to play with it anymore, I remember saying THAT'S NOT MY COLOR!! LOL!!
