- This week we have something a little different again. Lots of people have been asking to see my (Fleur`s) dolls house, so we thought we would do a little tour of my 1900`s dolls house. There is also a little miniature unboxing at the beginning of some things destined for both our Antique dolls houses!
If you would like to see us finding the things we use pop over to our other channel "Mudlarking With Kit + Caboodlers" - / @mudlarkingwithkitcabo...

The little brown spool box thingy was to hold sewing needles and the blue metal "table" is a birdbath.
I'm convinced people were more creative back when this dollhouse was created because their brains weren't diluted with all the technology thinking for us. The fact that 2 buttons were used to create a vase, flower holder shows the heart people put into creating things for their children.
I don't like the doll house...I LOVE IT!! Full of character. Who cares if things aren't to scale? I think it's wonderful. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Your painting of the birds inside the doors is perfect. It’s all too darling!!! Love!
Hello, Kate and Fleur, I really enjoyed this week's video, the unboxing was exciting, you got some lovely old things, I think the green square one is a bird bath.
Fleur your dolls house is marvellous, it's a real privilege to see something so precious to you, thank you for sharing it,
Looking forward to your next video,
Fleur honestly no need to be nervous about showing your beautifull house its delightfull and more importantly its you. your style and i can see its so loved and thats what counts. im a maximalist both in my dolls houses and my home i live in. that was so enjoyable thank you both.take care.is Sunny okay?🐱🐱
I'm a proud maximalist too! I found a video using the term and I suddenly felt my Universe click into place. 😊
Fleur, your dollhouse is charming. Every little ( and not so little) girl's dream.
Your doll house is wonderful.Im 73 and I have a doll house my dad made and it was well loved many years and now I'm refreshing it.Enjoyed it Thank you
It's so wonderful to hear you both chat about Fleur's dolls house. The love and care into your house is breath taking, it's lovely to know you both can share and enjoy it together. It's truly wonderful x
Because of you, and a few other TH-camrs, I have a growing interest in doll houses. Thank you for sharing your doll house. So many interesting little things.
When I was a very young teen, I used to make dollhouses out of old cardboard boxes which were wallpapered with gift wrap then filled with odd bits and bobs of whatever I was able to scavenge and cobble together from scraps found around the house.
I had so much fun playing with it and viewing your Lovely Old Doll's house, is like a trip for me down memory lane.
Everything in each room holds a special place in your hearts because they have a history and a story to tell. I think it's Absolutely Charming and filled with LOVE and good memories of people, places and things so THANK YOU for sharing it with us.
And little bone dog reminds me of the RCA Victor dog which "hears his master's voice" playing on a gramophone.
Oh, I used to that, too! Tables made from canister tops, and lamps using toothpaste lids, buttons and toothpicks…I would stick pictures of furniture cut from catalogues onto the walls of the boxes, because I knew I could never obtain anything so posh and a picture was better than nothing! I raided my mum’s scrap box for bits of material for curtains, with toothpicks and beads for curtain poles. I used her Aida and bits of fringe or lace for rugs, coloured with felt-tips. Looking back, I can’t think where I found the imagination! Such fond memories. I still love doll’s houses, even though I don’t have one myself…I think I feel a retirement hobby coming on!
@@frugalitystartsathome4889 It's never too late to begin a new hobby and I can't think of a better retirement one, than having a doll's house or even a roombox of your own.
Dear Kindred Spirits,
I loved,loved the tour of you all's or Fleur's dollhouse. And the eggs must have been dinosaur eggs. And the cake so lovely. This channel brings such warmth to my memory heart. I lived in West Germany age 6-11. Army brat. But I had a two room dollhouse. The kitchen was furniture made ala Black Forest. Oh I loved my tiny home. But I am the oldest of seven. I have one item left - a pot metal pitcher. 55 yrs old. It is in my china cabinet. Thank you so much. Bridget
Loved hearing about your generational interest in miniatures and doll houses.
It brings me great joy that you ladies love chippy, wonky, weird cast-off like I do. My whole life I have been gathering little bits and pieces for my whole life. We are kindred spirits with a big pond between us.
I love the dollhouse, it is so gorgeous. I could listen to you talk about it all day. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
I make dolls houses and dioramas by hand and I make all the furnishings and accessories too. I never pay attention to scale. I just make what 'looks right' to me. I call it Imagination Scale. And I often make houses for mice families. Have you ever noticed that if a mouse stood up, it would have a very long torso and a very low waist, and really short legs. They need their own scale! But this is a collectors house. Its wonderful because you've hunted for every piece over a long period of time. I don't think scale matters here. Its charming
I felt so emotional seeing your dolls house- thank you so much for the tour. I am 83 yr. old and follow both your sites. Seeing the charm of your house is a wonderful treat, and reminds me of the patient antique dealer who let me and my brother visit often, as his shop was near our father's restaurant. We of course loved the miniatures. How wonderful it would be to have those now!
The large scale wallpaper is perfect for your house, and I adore the mixed scale combination. BTW, those chubby eggs may be on top of American South style breakfast biscuits.
A beautiful dolls house. Thank you for sharing.
What a fabulous dollhouse! If you need another bed in the children's room move the small bed from the master bedroom and get a larger bed for the master bedroom.
THE DOLL HOUSE IS ADORABLE, SO SENTIMENTAL, QUITE LOVELY...
Utterly charming. Love your dollhouse, Fleur.
Your doll house is enchanting,thanks Fleur for showing something that is so special to you
Fleur your house is adorable, thank you for sharing it 💛🧡🤎
The whites of the eggs look like homemade clay dough made of flour, salt and water. 😊 Thank you for sharing your doll house; everything is adorable and priceless. I could look at it for hours.
My first thought also . . . growing up in Germany those eggs gave me nurseryschool vibes, because we used to craft with this cheap material even in the late 80´s and it looked quite like this . . . though it is here called "Salzteig", translatet one could call it salt - dough 😀
@@nodarlingart we did this in the 60’s in elementary school in Tennessee.
Wow, their as big as ostrich eggs! What a delicacy.
The three little angels in the nursery are so cute, Thank you for sharing.
Fleur being vulnerable is a sign of courage & you will receive nothing but admiration & love from all who see your handiwork. From the unboxing, I thought the blue mystery stand would possibly work as a birdbath in the garden. The gold filagree perhaps as a corbel under the eaves of a house at the peak. Perhaps the little sack could be a sack of flour. A stellar vlog today 😘
I thought the same thing. Nice finds for the garden and sack of soil or flour.
Exactly what I thought, birdbath and corbel.
Love, love, love the dolls house! I too love things of mixed sizes or scale. Favorite is the tiny dolls house in the nursery. Thank you so much for sharing!☺️
Hello Lovelies; your doll houses are really marvelous. I love them all. Thank you for sharing your treasures. Greetings from North Carolina U.S.A.
I guess you could say the eggs are from an Ostrich! 🤭 When I was a kid I really didn't care about scale. It was what ever worked for my dolls. And that is exactly what your dolls house looks like. It is authentic. A real doll house collected from your childhood, is priceless. The other dolls houses that are made "perfect" they're nice. But don't have the history and love that an authentic well loved doll house has. Yours is my idea of perfection, for when I want to go back to my childhood. 💜🐢
So very Lovely, your little home full of memories and love. Thank you for sharing this little piece of yourself.👍🏠
Fab, as ever. Fleur, it’s very beautiful and a true repository of your childhood memories and love. Thank you so much for allowing us a peek.
I loved it! Thank you so much for sharing your house with us.
Loved dollhouses are always Works in Progress, Fleur and Kate. It is wonderful to see you spending that time and taking us along. They are also very personal, and we are very privileged to be able to see the interiors of your dollhouses. The unboxing was brilliant -- such wonderful treasures to be shared between houses. Thank you for another lovely video in miniatures. xx
Thank you for sharing your dollhouse with us! Every single item is absolutely precious, and if you weren't such lovely, generous women, I would be totally GREEN with jealousy!!!!
You have no idea how much I enjoy these videos and your wonderful houses. If they could even be found where I live, there's no way I could afford them or their furnishings. To vicariously "play" with yours is the hugest treat! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I really love your dolls house, Fleur! It is everything I have ever wanted in a dolls house, ever! I’ve never seen a side by side house like that before…
The doll house is so sweet, whimsical and charming. Just like you, Fleur! I absolutely adore it! Thank you for showing us a piece of your heart!
Wow ! So glad you decided to show us your doll house. It's a big deal to open your house and your heart to us. I'm honored ! Thank you.
It’s lovely! My Mom was born in 1924 and she had a doll’s house that she made all the furniture for. She also wired the lights which must have run on batteries. I wish I had seen it for myself. Unfortunately, I suspect that it was given to another child, though by her, not her mother or I would never have heard the end of it. She was so upset when she came home from boarding school or university and found that all her beloved dolls, including some china-headed ones of her Aunties or even her grandmother’s, had been given to a little girl up the street. Mom was SO upset. “I didn’t think you would want them!” said her mother. Mom said to me so many times “I wanted to give then to my daughter if I had one…” She lamented that all the rest of her life.
Our landlady when I was little (1958-1963) had some china-dolls that I loved to look at in a cabinet. Occasionally, she would let me hold them “…as long as you’re very careful…”
I was always careful with my toys (withe the except my doll Susie who had short, bright rusty hair. I thought I would make her hair grow if I cut her bangs (fringe). She ended up with what looked like hair plugs, poor thing.
My problem would be, if I had a doll’s house, that the rooms are so small. I would have them crammed with so many things. AND, I would be wanting to add extra rooms… a larder and scullery, a library, an attic to store a lot of the excess furnishings in… when I was little, our house, as did many houses, had a kitchen AND a summer-kitchen for when it was so ungodly hot in summer. That way you didn’t heat up the house while cooking or canning. It wasn’t a luxury. It was a necessity. They would be behind the other kitchen, joined by a walkway with a roof on it. They often had two doors to allow air to blow through. On farms, it meant firld hands could eat in the summer-kitchen without tramping dirt in and out of the house. And there would be a big sink and a pump for the hands to wash up in before sitting down to eat.
Hahaha
Fleur, thank you so much for sharing a bit of your secret life as a child. Playing with your dolls house and making up stories to entertain yourself as a child, must have been great fun. Your dolls house holds precious memories of times and people gone by, but which are still fresh in your mind eye.
A magic all of its own.
You hope we like your dolls house, have no fear....we love it. Well all the comments I've read say they do. Xx
Beautiful thank you for allowing us into your private dolls house ! I absolutely love it x
The gold thing goes into the peak of the house
Love the miniature world! I’m 65 and want a doll house. That’s kinda silly! 🤣. The sachet cloth bag could become a flour bag in the kitchen. Loved it all! 💙
I’m 70 and just bought one! I’m going to make it into a Christmas house
🤩🎄🤩
@@seasidemom9463 🌻 That’s awesome! Maybe I will get one myself! 💖🌺🌸💖
Nonsense you're just a whippersnapper!
Loved your doll house Fleur. Sharing something so meaningful and special with us was so gracious of you. Hearing the history of all the little bits was very interesting. I needed a visit with you two dear ladies. Made me relax for awhile and not think of the worries im going thru. Hugs to Sunny.
Always enjoy your videos!
I bet that second thing is a bird feeder. At least that's what it looks like to me.
Lovely doll's house! Thanks for sharing it with us.
or a bird bath
That's a beautiful decorated doll house ladies. What a great job. I love dollhouse and miniatures. Thank you for sharing these wonderful treasures with us ❤
Love the doll house! My favorites are the the little dog on the bed and the cute little phone in the lounge 🥰 thanks for sharing with us!
This was lovely! Thank you for sharing your doll's house with us!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful doll house with us 😊
Stunning dollhouse! I love that it's all sorts of scales in one and has lots of beautiful things to look at 😍
How absolutely wonderful. I never had a doll house. I do love these videos and now I find more on Instagram with dollhouses and they make their own furnishings like you. It is so fun to watch, thank you for sharing
I love your house so much Fleur. You've added so much love and care to make it the miniature wonder it is. And yes, it is Glorious!
Love these videos! They make me want to film my own little dollhouse videos to show off my treasures and join in the fun!😆
My guesses: 1, Washbucket. 2, Blue Table base. (Use found wood scrap for top?) 3, decorative Gingerbread? and, Turkey or ostrich egg😁 Wow, love that dog.
Absolutely beautiful little dolls house. I love all the little bits you have saved since you were a young girl. What a beautiful memory and family story too 😊😘🥰
Just lovely!! What a precious lot of memories you have shared with us. So many tiny delights! And you’ve passed on your love of miniature to your sweet daughter!💕
Fleur, what an absolute treasure!!! I loved every minute of it! So very thankful you got the courage to share it! ❤
I absolutely love your doll house, thanks for sharing it. Can't wait to see the other doll house.
LOVE this doll's house ❤️ Thanks for the tour ❤️
Look for older Christmas cards to make pictures for the walls. Also, you could paint that Iron black. There are many molds you can buy then use clay to make what you need on whatever scale. Even molds for picture frames, fo the glass just use thick clear plastic. For the mirrors, I use the shiny peal off from like a coffee can or whatever uses foil. I bought a few molds for my dollhouse. I love your dollhouse and everything in them they're so precious. the older the better. You can make your furniture then use darker paint to age it and tea to darken anything. You can buy tiny wood in any shape, square, half, round poles/sticks then just cut them to size. I know this BC I bought so much martial for my dollhouse.
Absolutely looove the dollhouse. Everything I wish I had had as a child
What a treasured dollhouse 💖 So many grand pieces and memories to share 🥰 I could sit here for hours listening to you two tell stories about the finds inside this exquisite home.❤ Your channel is just one of my favorites. Thank you - Ladies
This was just magical Fleur and Kate. Dollshouse kitchens are my favourite room too. I absolutely adore the basket of candles in the kitchen and the washstand in the bedroom. There is just so much to look at which I love. Just wonderful, thank you so much for sharing 💝
In the world of doll houses yours is by far the best. Each and every item is so fascinating.
It is absolutely charming. Like it’s owner.
Fleur it seems that you don't know whether to be proud or embarrassed about your doll house. Be very, VERY PROUD!!!! It's a beautiful representation of early 1900's living!!!!
That little house is so cute! So many tiny things I adore it so much!!!
Absolutely gorgeous. The mix of scales really doesn't matter when you have lovingly amalgamated all these wonderful miniatures into such beautiful scenes. Your nursery has made me realise that mine needs much more in it.
Beautiful video, A Mother-of-Pearl spoon is the ideal choice for caviar tasting, thank you.
Lovely layout! So much nostalgia. Reminds me of the Ginny doll my aunt has, complete with a trunk with all her gear in it. Thankyou for showing us!
I had a Ginny when I was small! Might still?
@@jennifersauter7286 Very unique Doll for sure, might be worth looking around for :)
Very pretty things and the doll house is amazing👍
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your doll house!!! Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful glimpse into your happy place!! Fleur, I really appreciate how nervous you were to show us, but have no fear, I enjoyed it so much!! What a labor of love finding all the special pieces over so many years to make it a treasure!!🥰🥰🥰
The Little Blue table thing i think is a Bird Bath for the garden.
How could you be worried about showing your dollshouse when it's so very beautiful! I guess it is like revealing the things you love and cherish to the world for all to judge.I love the different scales and the fact damaged things like the dolls with no limbs etc play a part in the house and give it such character.
My favourite room to do is always a nursery or child's room as you can use so many tiny things as toys and I love to have lots of children playing and having fun.Just loving all your videos.
What an amazing dollhouse! I have always loved miniature things and it amazes me how you have decorated your houses.
I had one when I was 8 or 9. It was made of tin or some other metal, and it was painted. As I remember (this was 60 years ago), the roof lifted off. My evil younger brothers (I had 4) totally destroyed my dollhouse and it was never replaced. Many years later, my 10 year old daughter asked for a dollhouse. I bought one of those "put it together yourself kits" and the husband of my best friend constructed it, painted it, and even installed "electric" lights. It was a big Victorian house. My daughter loved it. Then, a year or so later, our house burned down along with her dollhouse. But no one was injured so we moved on.
Please keep sharing your love of tiny things - and your wonderful adventures - with us! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Fleur, for sharing your doll house with us. It is absolutely precious.
Ahhhh this was wonderful! I love all miniature things. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour of the dollhouse 😍😍😍😍
Your doll house is incredible! The treasure beyond the house is listening to mother and daughter share the stories about a shared love!! You are so blessed to have a permanent record of this experience. Thank you for inviting us into your hearts💕Tracy, Pa🇺🇸
What a dolls house it is . It must have got your young imagination running wild Kate (: both of you are two peas in a pod. thank you for showing us your house Fleur it's so sweet ❤️
I absolutely LOVE Mom's dollhouse! And it's so WONDERFUL that you still have it, and that it was there for both of you to enjoy!! It's so BEAUTIFUL!!!! I have to watch again and again to see everything!!! What JOY!!!
What an amazing haul! I have never seen a tiny mother of pearl spoon before! And those tiny wooden plates are gorgeous! I really enjoyed seeing your 1900s dollhouse. I think I could look at it for a very long time. You know what? I like kitchens in the dollhouses the best, also! I love making things for the kitchens of my dollhouses the most. Collecting stuff is so much fun. I can tell you put a lot of love into this house. 😍
I love what you’ve done to your doll house.
It feels like Christmas! Seeing you both opening all of the treasures and then getting to view Fleur's dolls house is such a gift. Thank you so much for sharing. I absolutely love it!
Best part of this video is the house tour with extensive commentary on the bits and bobs. Absolutely adored it. 🥰❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing your lovely dollhouse and beautiful memories with us! My daughter (6) and I loved the angel in the nursery and the little crochet dress on the ironing board.
I completely agree-doll houses are most definitely a reflection of yourself! I don’t understand how people can glue things down in a doll house and call it finished. Like gardens, doll houses are ever evolving. In my doll house, the only room I set up with absolute satisfaction was the kitchen, and it was indeed so easy. The other rooms never were right. You have a marvelous house full of treasures! I particularly like your tiny framed picture. And don’t feel badly, my doll house has several mice, 2 cats, and at least 6 dogs in it. I want to get fish next. You can never have too many miniature pets. Thank you for sharing!
Your dolls house is amazing and thank you for sharing part of your family history with us. Those of us that have dolls houses understand you being somewhat nervous about showing it as they are part of us, but what an adorable part x
I like all the little things. Now I want my husband to make me a doll house too. I like your model. A house with a door but not really a door. Looks easy to make. Will you share its measurements? I think that the knockel bones could pass for books on a book case. Right?
I absolutely love the doll's house I'm getting ready to make mine just need a few more things to start 💞
Love this wonderful home thank you 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💖💖
Fleur, your doll house is so precious! Thank you for sharing part of your heart and soul with us. I love your channel!
Fleur, your doll house is so charming and your right, we all rearrange our houses all the time , it is just the nature of the craft , never be afraid to show it , it is charming and sweet 🎂 just like you
Those must be ostrich eggs. Fleur, we love your dolls house and the history of your family in relation to dolls. You both inspired me to work with dolls again and start my own channel. I recently discovered a vintage wooden box I could make a dolls house our of once we settle wherever we end up after selling this house. I am grateful to you both for all the hours and hours of inspiration, entertainment, and feelings of...being understood. The joy you both exhibit when you find things is something people in my own life don't always understand. The good ones do. Your dolls houses are all wonderful in their individuality and uniqueness. ❤❤❤
Well said Tara!
Thank you so much for sharing you adorable doll house full of happiness for all these saved dolls. I just imagine them all so have to be out of storms that were so scary at night. I imagine them playing and talking about the adventure of when they were finally found and how you fixed them up to live in their new home. I see nothing but love when you opened those doors and all the little things you saved to bring smiles to all of us grown up girls that can still imagine playing! Thank you 🥰
Thank you for showing us your lovely dolls house just adorable..stay safe..V.R..
Watching this again while I make Christmas miniatures for my circa 1908 room boxes!
What a wonderful house it is so charming and intriguing I LOVE it every room is so special what a treasure so thrilled you shared this a real treat.
Thank you for opening your hearts to us.
So wonderful to see ladies thank you xxx
Absolutely charming house. I love how cluttered the kitchen is.
I loved seeing your dolls house Fleur. Thank you for sharing it with us xx
