Kit's attic

Kit's collection has always been a favorite of mine.  I LOVE her desk, her typewriter, her camera, her binoculars, her treehouse, her phone, that tiny metal harmonica (ok you get the picture) and she's one of the historicals we actively collect for (and Julie).  So having a room for Kit when planning out the dollhouse was a given.

I had so many ideas for this room.  I wanted it to look authentic since we have so much of her collection already, which meant it needed to look like an unfinished attic.

And after hours of measuring, cutting, staining, leveling & glueing (yes, by me), this room was a labor of LOVE and was presented to Ava on her 8th birthday!

  1. What a beautiful room. All those hours spent on just the walls were worth it! Is everything in the room from Kit's collection?
