  • This week we finally dress a tiny tin lithograph Marx dolls house we bought at a Toy Fair (for only £10) quite a long time ago! We have been collecting the tiny 24th scale items for years like Christmas cracker charms to tiny sausages. The occupants are a little eccentric too! Come with us from start to finish as we make things and furnish this teeny tiny tin house!
    If you would like to see us doing some different things pop over to our other channel "Mudlarking With Kit + Caboodlers" - / @mudlarkingwithkitcabo...

    I’m in Chicago. I went to LensCrafters’s for new glasses, trying to explain to the guy that I make jewelry I need glasses for reeeaaally close up. He goes I sew six scale doll clothes with mine. Yadda yadda- we both watch and love your channel!! Couldn’t believe I found someone in the wild who likes things I like. I was bowled over. We talked about mudlarking (we don’t have that in the US) and your mudlarking house. We talked about how you guys will pick up a random thing and know exactly what it’s meant to be- like who knew meat lockers were a thing? And other bits we couldn’t even remember. I was fully jumping up and down in excitement right there in LensCrafters’s.

      I don't know if you also watch them but there's another mom and daughter duo who mudlark and make things with their finds... their channel is called Northern Mudlarks.

    Could the little elephant be a watering can?! Water would come out the trunk/spout maybe. What an adorable teeny tiny scale hoise. I actually remember seeing these as a child of the 70's. Great job!! ❤🏡

    When I was a little girl in the 1970's, we would go visit my grandma and she had old cigar boxes full of tiny gum ball machine toys full to the rim of just amazing toy from years and years of collecting. I'd spend hours playing with these items....

  • @Kristen_Marie
    @Kristen_Marie Před 7 měsíci +21

    Hello, I believe the washing machine should be turned around so the red pipes face the wall. And yes, the white appliance is definitely a dishwasher 😊. The food on the kitchen table is adorable.

  • @r.vancil129
    @r.vancil129 Před 7 měsíci +9

    I do love the hen and duck as residents, but if you want, I also have a human doll that I think would be perfect for this little house. She's the right size and time period and was a "dime store" doll. She's yours for the asking.

    • @bonnieharris4538
      @bonnieharris4538 Před 4 měsíci

      @miniatureworldofkitandcaboodlers I just had an idea!... toy car; jeep/suv style; will have a large radiator grill; snap that off and put it over the damaged bit of your kitchen unit where clearly there was a griddle or a draining board; one of the two!

    • @bonnieharris4538
      @bonnieharris4538 Před 4 měsíci

      What was the thing painted on the back wall that you've covered up with a piano? My guess; being in the lounge/ family room was record player, but idk.

    • @bonnieharris4538
      @bonnieharris4538 Před 4 měsíci

      Do you ever use Blutac Sticky Dots? I'm NOT proposing Blutac that would look awful sticking out everywhere; but their Sticky dots are circular, transparent, much more discreet and imo, just as sticky! And fairly reasonable value as well.

  • @RadonCrow

    Total perfection. I feel like Ms. Chicken and Mr. Duck could be called the Fowlers. Fowler Family Cottage. And I think I would call the poodle Periwinkle.

    I have to say this is my favorite doll house. I had one with two floors in the late sixties with the plastic furniture. My mom had to put the house together they came un assembled. They were very popular here in the states back then. I hope you can find a television. Mine had a floor model.

  • @tself624

    The windowbox that had the flower missing is from a Playmobil set..... my granddaughter plays with our Playmobil farm that my sons had 25 years ago when they were little and we have a windowbox in our set just like yours, with the flowers intact. Loved this video, brought back lots of memories of my childhood!

    When you first started my mind went to the old cartoon called the Jetsons lol. I had a tin doll house when I was a little girl, I loved it. I didn't know they made them as small as your tiny treasure, but I sure enjoyed you dressing it up. I also think your occupants are perfect.

      So sad to lose a cherished dollhouse! In the late 79s we found a two story tin dollhouse at the dump -- I already had two-- but I furnished it up with odds and ends and occupied it with origami dogs, to my own great delight.
      I think it went to my cousin when we moved.

    Another wonderful relaxing video. This turned out great, not surprisingly. The house now looks like a real " home" great work Fluer. I, too, loved the retro fabric. I believe it is by Michael Miller. I am a quilter, and I have seen that print before. Would love to use it as a quilt back. Or, if I could fashion sew, it would be an awesome dress fabric.

    Would it be easier to take the sink unit and refrigerator out, stick the pans on with the wax, and then put them back in the house? Everything is so tiny. The finished house is adorable!

    Thank you for sharing! I have never seen a metal doll house. It is adorable!
