Dollhouse #9

I didn't intend on bringing home another dollhouse.

Really I didn't.
But the price was right, it was in mint condition and it was full of Renewal furniture. 
Most metal dollhouses are left in damp basements and rust takes over.  
This 1948 T. Cohn home is in perfect condition.
Of course, this meant rearranging all my other homes to make space in my craft room.  
I hope you found time to play this weekend.  
XOXO

    How exciting Kim! We had a whole bunch of that same furniture at a previous sale I did. :)
    Isn't it funny, you bring home one thing and you have to move everything around! Your room looks so fun!
    Have a great week,
    Gina

    Oh my, if you're on number 9, I don't think I'll tell you which number I'm on! I don't even know myself- I'd have to walk around my house counting!! What a super find though- you're right, most metal ones are rusted- so nice to have one is such great condition! And all that furniture- some of that goes for a pretty penny on Ebay!

    Some things in life are just not meant to be passed by. Glad you brought it home to live with the rest of your neighborhood!

    Number 9? I think you need to have a nice round number, don't you? 10 sounds more fitting!

    I never had a doll house and didn't know I wanted one until you started showing all this cuteness! If you ever go into Real Estate I may be your first client! Those pieces look like new...you didn't show toothbrush scrubbing and soaking in 409!

    Oh I love it Kim! I've been trying to see it all day, lol. For some reason my laptop couldn't open your blog, but my tablet did thankfully. It is all so sweet, I especially love the kitchen furniture. You couldn't leave that one behind no matter what number it is. :)

    It's darling, Kim! I think you need a new room in your home just for your doll houses! I think of you whenever I see vintage doll houses:) What a lucky find!

    It's amazing and I love the cute furniture. I'm so happy for you. I'd be happy for ME if I could just find one! hahaha! I'll keep it on my wish list and keep playing with my dolls. I'm having such fun making doll clothes this summer. Have FUN! Hugs, Diane

    Wow-I can't believe you have 9 dollhouses!! How fun that you have the room to display them all. I had a Marx dollhouse similar to the one on the left in your last pic. Since I live in a very small apartment, I didn't have room for it at all. So I donated it (minty condition) and all the furniture (for every room) to Salvation Army. I hope someone who loves dollhouses ended up with it! I have one of those 5 ft. tall Barbie houses plus a wooden one for the tiny dolls, but they take up all the room!!
