Welcome to Quayside my town by the seaside!

WELCOME TO QUAYSIDE MY TOWN BY THE SEASIDE



Thank you for visiting my blog and thanks even more if you decide to follow :-) I really do enjoying doing it and love to share my projects with you all! In the village at last count I had 18 houses, 14 little roombox size shops, 3 half houses, and 1 half church (half being just a front!) there's also 1 quarter of a house (just half of a front lol) 2 market stalls, 3 market carts and beach huts on the beach although theres always seems to be room for just one more!

I also have a my 1st house a traditional Victorian manor which is very special as it was bought with money left to me by my beloved Nan. There's also my witches house and a witches shop. I also have a lovely Honeychurch house which is my Christmas shop and house and my latest venture a little vintage cottage. But the bulk of my property empire is Quayside, my little Cornish seaside village full of lovely individual cottages and all its wonderful residents. This has become a real labour of love and has turned me from a Dolls house fan into a complete and utter addict! The links below will take you to each of my houses and I especially hope you enjoy your visit to Quayside :-)

Sylvanian cottage madeover!

I was bored yesterday afternoon so decided to give the cottage I picked up at the bootsale a mini makeover, it was a nice way to spend a couple of hours!! as you can see my little helper is ever present! :-)



I have loads of odd bits of Sylvanian including for some reason tons of babies lol A lot are Bethanys from when she was little and  the rest picked up at bootsales or charity shops. I decided to make a little nursery school. Some babies are sleeping, some are playing, some are having a bottle and some sitting outside.

The little pram on the left was 20p from the bootsale yesterday also.   It would make a cute little house but I know my niece will love it set up as the nursery its prob much more fun to play with than if it was just a house!


  I didn't really like the red roof so added some tile paper which I think looks much better.


I also added some wallpaper on a couple of walls and the upstairs ceiling as it was really dark. I added some flooring using up some scraps left over from my Fairbanks.


The Mums are doing what Mums do best having some cake!!




I got the little name sign from the DH shop on my last visit for 45p and thought it suited it nicely. I knew it would come in handy somewhere!
