You really need a LOT of stuff for a kitchen don’t you?

Closing the front opening My house is front opening and had one MASSIVE door. This is just silly – even titanium hinges are going to be compromised with 2 kilos of MDF board hanging off them.  I plan on having 4 separate doors on separate hinges.  This also means I can finish each room individually […]

My Big Arse Island My main feature for my kitchen was always going to be as big an island as I could fit, and it also had to have a breakfast bar so I could make some cool industrial bar stools to go under it =) I built the island out of basswood and birchwood […]

Everything and the kitchen sink!

June 4, 2019 by Loverat 2 comments

The first part I decided on One thing I have never had in a kitchen is somewhere for the annoying garbage can to hide and I still don’t!  I do have hidden recycle and organic matter bins but still have to have a bin for things like soft plastic and general rubbish. I also like […]

A Kitchen Nook

Planning the kitchen…. I did actually make a floor plan for my lower cabinets, sink, appliances, island and dining table.  I make a template of the floor space on graph paper then make templates of what I would like to fit in the space. For example, a kitchen counter unit is about 5cm by 5cm. […]

Whatcha.. Hello and welcome to the next update on my humungous 1/12 scale dollhouse. I have never discussed a style for this house. I will be doing a contemporary farmhouse meets rustic industrial meets shabby meets moroccan meets boho meets glam kinda style.  I like a mish mash of styles – hence the name. I […]

What’s happening with my Capacious Colonial?

October 23, 2018 by Loverat 1 comment

Capacious Colonial gets a much needed colour change! Quite a bit actually! I will break this up into a few posts because I’m guessing I won’t get it all done right NOW.  Clearly it would be better if I updated more often but I had a few technical issues with the blog and that gave […]

My 1-12 Scale Dollhouse -The Capacious Colonial

January 1, 2018 by Loverat 0 comments

My Capacious Colonial – my 1-12 scale journey begins I spent quite about 6 months looking for a sensibly priced second-hand 1-12 scale dollhouse. Here in Australia, it’s not as easy to get “real” second-hand houses. The chances of finding one in an op shop were VERY slim. They are mostly kiddy toy style ones […]

What’s your deal Loverat?

I have a manbaby, a furbaby and a love of miniatures. Recently moved to an old house in the country in another state so now my craft room is in an old apple packing shed! Now sharing with possums, lizards, rats and mice but I love it!
