The other day I found a really great miniature brass bed at an estate sale.
It is the perfect scale for 1"= 1'-0" and appears to be homemade. I will probably put it with the items that I am collecting for my Victorian house.
The sun room had these really great built in cabinets.
The house also had they wonderful arch-top doors.
The stair banister was a mixture of wood and iron.
I loved the front door and its surround.
The whole front of the house had more metalwork and lots of Italianate detailing.
Another element I liked was the pattern in the stucco along the top.
I am with you. I love houses! My favorite show when I am near cable ( I don't subscribe...too many mini projects lol) is hgtv. I even thought of real estate as a retirement career. When my daughters were teens we used to go to open houses just for the fun of it! I LOVE HOUSES...and architecture! All of the building elements in your pictures are gorgeous! I like you little bed too! :-)

ReplyDeleteThat is a fantastic house. Estate sales here in Phoenix tend to be in retirement suburbs,so no old houses.
What fabulous architectural details. I love the built in cabinets. They would look great in a miniature scene.
