Little Darlings Restoration and Repair

Do you have an existing dollhouse in need of a little TLC??  Little Darlings also specializes in dollhouse restoration.  If your dollhouse has seen better days and you'd like to get it back into shape give me a call!  Exterior painting, finishing and repair.  Restoration services are available on a very limited basis.  Please email me if you have a dollhouse you would like restored.  Please include photos of your dollhouse, a list of needed and wanted repairs/finishing and I will try to give you a ballpark quote.  My time is limited but I do restore several dollhouses during the summer months.  Thank you.

Here's another interior dollhouse redo I just finished:
BEFORE
My client told me her dollhouse needed "freshening up".  She tried to redo it herself and ran out of steam.  Not knowing what to do with her dollhouse she called Little Darlings.  She really wanted to try and keep some origional details and color schemes because her grandmother had built the dollhouse for her.  So I finished the dollhouse like new and spruced it right up!  Per her request I installed all new wallpaper and flooring, built custom window seats (3 were missing), recarpeted the stairs, repainted all the window trim, installed baseboards and rehinged the front door.
