I bought this metal Marx dollhouse
locally from a woman for $35.
It comes with some plastic furniture.
It is in really good condition,
some minor scratches.
I have always wanted a metal dollhouse.
If anyone knows what year this dollhouse came out,
let me know. I think it is from 1957.

They were sold with cookies in them.

The Dura Craft Farmhouse was my first kit I built in the early 2000's when I got back into miniatures. My husband helped me build it. I was running out of room, so I decieded 
I found a bag of these plastic beads or charms
shaped like sandals at either Hobby Lobby or Michael's.
I am going to cut off the loop and glue some fabric on them to look realistic.

Luggage, 2008
I just bought this luggage ornament
