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 :-)

Feeling inspired!!

Nothing new to report in Quayside YET! I spent all last night rearranging the village as I felt it wasn't quite right! I had 2 empty shops and the bag shop wasn't working so I scrapped that idea too! I just haven't been inspired since I moved it all! But yesterday the ideas started flowing and I couldn't stop them lol I adore Debs mini knitted things and love the little balls of wall you can get so I have decided to make the purple one into a wool shop. It will be called KNITTING PRETTY. Edna is busy giving it the once over before the new owners move in!


 The pink one will become a flower shop as I seem to have loads of them! The blue one I am tossing up between a fish shop and a gallery so still thinking on that one. The blue front is now empty so I have decided to make that into a party /fancy dress shop. It only needs a window display and I can still do seasonal ones. The idea came from a lovely clown doll I bought yesterday that I just fell in love with!

I moved all the houses around which in itself isn't that hard but redoing all the lights is a nightmare! I have a lovely space on the harbour for a new house now!! I moved Barnacle as I felt it looked much better over that side!


So I have lots to do and loads of projects to be getting on with its great when you feel like that!!!

  5. I was a bit worried about having water outside the B&B! Better with Barnacle as it advertises boat trips!

  6. I think Barnacle looks much better on the harbour glad you agree! And the B & B guests should be ok at least its not the pub!
