Some Assembly Required

Shortly after Valentines Day, I received a dollhouse kit in the mail.  Much to the surprise of my husband, I hadn't ordered it for myself (even though I had been coveting it for quite some time).  It was a gift from my mother.  I found myself both ecstatic and slightly overwhelmed.

I had received the Beachside Bungalow Dollhouse Kit created by Real Good Toys.  I opened the box immediately and found lots of parts and pieces.  Then the box rested and lie dormant for many weeks (okay, perhaps several months).

If you follow along you'll read about my adventures in wabi sabi dollhouse building   Wabi sabi was a phrase I was introduced to while my mother was exploring fung shei and I was re-learning how to use a sewing machine about dozen years ago.  In short wabi sabi means an acceptance of life's imperfections.  The term fit every sewing project that I completed.  I am certain my dollhouse will not let the wabi sabi fan club down either.
