My New Beach Cottage Minis

Those of you who follow this blog know that my newest passion

is tweaking dollhouse miniatures.  On Saturday my "sister" Robin

The Decorating Tennis Girl (no she's not really my sister, but that's

another post) were looking online at real estate in Rockport, Texas and 

Tybee Island, GA from the comfort of our little cottages in Idaho and

Illinois.  We were emailing links to each other of some of our

favorites when I suddenly thought ~ why not create my own  mini

beach cottage???

I took a miniature mahogany stained buffet and painted it, shabbied it up and let

my imagination fly.  I grabbed my polymer clay and created a little platter and

some starfish too.  After they baked in the oven and cooled, I painted a fish

on the platter.

I used a mini chalkboard over the buffet in place of a mirror or

painting.  Oh and I lined all of the drawers with this cute

aqua and white dotty fabric.

Here is one of my starfish and that little screened door I showed

you the other day.

A little burlap throw rug.  Be sure to shake the sand off your

feet before entering ;-)

Can't you just feel the ocean breeze?

Bentley ~ just think of all the money we saved your daddy by

creating our own mini beach cottage!  We are always thinking

of ways to keep him happy ~ don't you agree?  Bentley is

nodding yes.  Really he is!

Big Hugs,
