Welcome to Quayside my town by the seaside!

WELCOME TO QUAYSIDE MY TOWN BY THE SEASIDE



Thank you for visiting my blog and thanks even more if you decide to follow :-) I really do enjoying doing it and love to share my projects with you all! In the village at last count I had 18 houses, 14 little roombox size shops, 3 half houses, and 1 half church (half being just a front!) there's also 1 quarter of a house (just half of a front lol) 2 market stalls, 3 market carts and beach huts on the beach although theres always seems to be room for just one more!

I also have a my 1st house a traditional Victorian manor which is very special as it was bought with money left to me by my beloved Nan. There's also my witches house and a witches shop. I also have a lovely Honeychurch house which is my Christmas shop and house and my latest venture a little vintage cottage. But the bulk of my property empire is Quayside, my little Cornish seaside village full of lovely individual cottages and all its wonderful residents. This has become a real labour of love and has turned me from a Dolls house fan into a complete and utter addict! The links below will take you to each of my houses and I especially hope you enjoy your visit to Quayside :-)

Hen house and hat stands!


I was looking at little wooden hen houses on Ebay for Winnies chickens but they were quite dear so decided I would have a go at making one myself! I used a couple of bits of wood, lots of lolly sticks, some net from a washing tablet bag (stained a bit with tea) and a coat of oak varnish. I finished it off with a bit of 'grass' carpet dirtied up a bit on the roof and added some straw. I think they look very happy in their new home!!


I have bought a few of KATS fab witches hats for my shop lately and really needed a couple of extra hat stands. They are so expensive on Ebay almost £4 with postage and I seriously begrudged paying that when I know they are only 50p in the DH shop but I can't get there for a another couple of weeks and am too impatient lol! Remembered I had some dark blue glittery fimo and thought I could make some witchy style hat stands and I am so pleased how they turned out and thats a few pounds to spend on something else now!!!
