This is a project I planned years ago but am finally starting to execute–to build a miniature Queen Anne Victorian house from scratch. Unlike a traditional dollhouse, which tends to have a row of backless rooms, I have planned an actual house, with open
ings in the walls of two of the sides so you can peek in.
Since I have never built miniatures or houses before, you will have to bear with me, as I will be experimenting as I go along.
Please enjoy.

This is the coolest blog! Looks like you’re off to a great start, I can’t wait to see what comes next. I hope I can steal a few decorating ideas!
Ha! Great minds must think alike…I was looking at your bedroom photo and wondering if I could decorate one of the bedrooms like that. 😉 Although, yours seems more Italianate style and mine is more of a Queen Anne…

No problem 🙂
This is a gorgeous project, I love it!!
This is a great idea! I’ll be following to see what you do. Thanks for stopping by my dollhouse!
Hello again, I am cleaning out some of my old dollhouse furniture kits and such and was wondering if you would like them. I could send you them if you want. I have old Xacto miniature kits and some other do it yourself stuff. I was just going to take it to the local thrift store but figured you could use them seeing how huge your house is going to be. Let me know, and we can discuss offline. Rin aka Tiny Hippo
Looks like you’ve got a big project ahead–have fun. And thanks for subscribing to my blog.
I am so flattered that you liked some of my tiny creations. I have always loved drawing and design but just started miniatures this past year. I love all things tiny! Your Victorian creations are impressive and I am enjoying your progress. Cheers!
Thank you so much! Indeed, there is something incredibly appealing about tiny reproductions of things…
I have just spent a lovely morning reading my way through your newly found blog. What a great morning it has been – I’m very impressed and so looking forward to following your progress with this.
Thank you so much! It’ll be a little while before there’s a lot of progress since I have a two year old at home… But he should be going to school next fall… 🙂
Love you girl
This is AWESOME!! Are you still working on Victorian miniatures in 2024?
Hi there! Thanks! Along the line, I had this thing called a kid…and that takes up a lot of my time. But as he gets older, I’m planning to get right back to this project. It’s sitting quite safely under an acrylic box, covered with heavy fabric to keep out the light and sun damage. I’m looking forward to continuing it and this blog!
I did not go through the “kid thing”, but have certainly been through plenty of “This project will be SO much fun to work on and – Oh, gosh, what’s that coming this way at full speed… is that Life??” situations to appreciate the one you are in!
Love the kid and know that your fans will be waiting with baited breath for your eventual return to the world of Victorian mini-decor!
So glad to see that you will be returning to this project! I discovered your blog about 10 years ago and I have been checking about every six months to see if you are back. Your architectural work is spectacular.
Aww…thanks. I’m thinking another year before I wrap up my projects in my real life sized Victorian and I can get back to the mini. I appreciate the nudge. Made me smile and cheered me up.
