Thread: Mom's miniature parlor

  1. #1

    Default Mom's miniature parlor

    Mom's a nut for Victorian doll houses/miniatures. At least her parlor sports appropriate mandolin (far wall, next to the pump organ). (In the interest of total transparency, the mandolin was a gift from me.)

    The mandolin or the house at large? The mandolin is maybe 1.5 inches or so. The whole doll house is way bigger than I would endeavor to give such a thing.

    Very cool, Eugene. When my girls were little I used to frequent doll house stores for such things. Brings back memories. I know these miniatures are a whole world in itself.

    That’s an impressive miniature parlor. My wife is also into miniatures. Here’s an Irish cottage interior she created (with mandolin content).
