Mockingbird Hill Cottage — Page 1481 — Mockingbird Hill Cottage

I’ve been working on the dollhouse kitchen – perfect for a rainy day. Make that a humid, rainy day.

Remember the material I used in the bedroom to cover up the previous owner’s building mistake? For some reason that section was covered in the same siding that is used on the outside of the house. So I used this material to simulate a painted brick wall. I had some left over and it seemed to be the perfect solution for a rustic backsplash in the kitchen.

I blended that color by hand to match the blue in the wallpaper. (No faucet yet.)

Then I made that little kitchen skirt. It picks up the pink in the wallpaper.

And then I made a roman blind for the window. Apologies in advance for the photo. I’ve mentioned before how tunnel-like the rear of the kitchen is. And it’s especially cloudy here today.

I promise I’ll try to get a better photo, but for now, this will have to do. You can’t see it but there’s also a matching table runner.

I’m trying to use what I have and I found that fabric in my stash.

Someone mentioned putting a back on the shelf unit above the Aga.

There is a back on it. I added the wallpaper because I like the look and once I accessorize it with hanging pots and pans and whatever else I can find, it will look pretty striking.

If you can see it.

I have to figure out just how to photograph this. Some of you gave me suggestions and I promise to try them. I used an Ott Light on the photos of the shade. A bit better, but still very problematic.

Happy Saturday.
