This is the dollhouse Santa found on Craigslist for $100. One of his elves went online to find parts for it and this is what she found. Yes. $7,999.00! Seven thousand nine hundred and ninety nine dollars!
I know...right?! Needless to say, aforementioned elf felt all the blood rush to her head and had to sit down! On the down(ish) side, now we need to buy furniture on par with this lovely house. Most of it costs more than some of the better pieces I own!
It was quite dirty, as it had been in storage and there was evidence of mice who lived in the chateau Once Upon a Time! Personally, I LOVE the image of mice roaming the place, drinking tea with one pinky up and hoping that year's grapes would...well, I digress!
But...mice in panniers...and powdered wigs!

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara
Feathered Friends in Farthingales might be even better. ;-)
