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 :-)

HOW LONG!!!! Village update today vintage will follow!

Oh my goodness just realised I have not updated my blog since July that's pretty shocking and I do apologise lol. I tend to post on my Facebook group and sadly have neglected my blog so from now on I will try and keep more updated!

Lots of new arrivals some in the village and some vintage! I will start today with the village and will do another update with all my new vintage houses tomorrow!

Just new this week is Boathouse cottage which I bought from my lovely friend Deb. Sadly she was selling her collection so owning it is bittersweet but its a fabulous addition to the village and one I have always loved! Of course there is no room so its one in one out and I had to part with a couple of houses to fit new ones in! The small gallery and Rose cottage have gone to a new home with my good friend Carol which freed up some funds and some space!


It looks fabulous all lit up and is a fantastic addition to the village


Boathouse cottage was crying out to be a lovely gallery with those windows so I moved everything straight into it!



Display cabinet with glass animals is so lovely when lit!



Room to add more lovely things as I find them!


Paintings by my brother based on a full size on he did in my real Life house!


Upstairs is a seafood eaterie just waiting for some! Its not easiest thing to find!


Boat shelf I made for Deb came back with the  cottage!



2 lovely new arrivals came with the Boathouse! Meet Bill and Maggie! Bill is Bobs brother and lived in the next village but have decided to move to Quayside!


The doctors has moved out of Rose cottage an its now above the shop! it works well here!


I have plenty of stuff to fill the shelves I just need to get round to it!


Needs some more patients! I never seem to have enough dolls even though I have over 100 already!



I decided I wasn't loving the dolls house shop and decided to do a toyshop instead!


Cute Erna Meyer little girl with her dolly!


Kept a few dolls houses of course! the lovely real oil paintings were from Ebay


Love all the teddies and dollies in the cot!


I got this gorgeous little doll from Ebay! She had white blonde hair and with her little hair band and trendy outfit she looked just like Bethany when she was little! I already had the pushchair and she looked so cute it in!




I also treated the villagers to a new bus! Its made from tinplate the same as the car. I just thought it was so much fun!!



My poor ladies have been at the bus stop for an age! At least they are now almost at the shops!



My new bus driver Alex. Well he did need a new job! ;-)


There's also a grand new arrival due this week so I will be back very soon with more village news!!
