My Dollhouse is speaking again

After months of silence, to the point I was even considering scrapping all my mini supplies, she is finally talking to me. Seriously I only need 5 things for the interior to be done, wall paper, flooring, trim, ceilings and lights. I will have to start looking around for the perfect papers. Ones I can live with forever. Lights are so expensive I will need to accumulate them slowly. Because the house is so huge I will only be using working ceiling lights. Any others will be decorative only. I was looking at some of the minis I have collected and I can hardly wait to display them all in one place. Until I am healed enough to work strongly with my hand I will content myself with list making, design drawing and sewing my daughters plastic canvas Barbie house. Living room on that is finished, 1 1/2 walls to make of the bottom hall and that can go together. I am not looking forward to remaking the foundation. It is very boring and I am sad it was destroyed during out move. Between the foundation and the kitchen that will keep me busy, at least untill I get distracted by something else that is. Although I must say, my daughters face was priceless when she realized what I was making. I will be pausing on it again this week to finish the clothes for her "paper" doll. The doll is finished except the lining of the back, which I need a piece of clothing finished to make sure I do it right, nice circle that makes. 
Here she is helping with the stairs, her favorite part of the house.
