I just cannot get over that sweet little stove. I love the array of pots and pans placed on it and how the pies fit perfectly in it. You definitely can get carried away arranging all the lovely things in a Dollhouse.
I have that same sink in my dollhouse! And I have one very much like it from that same era in my own real kitchen - love, love, love it! I love arranging and decorating a dollhouse kitchen - my favorite room of all! Probably because there are soooo many accessories one can include! My dollhouse kitchen truly suffers from “overload” - but I love it! I justify it by doing a very minimal kitchen in my own real kitchen! Also, I’m a cast iron girl too - the original and best “non-stick” cookware there is! 🥰 Please take good care! Sending love, healing and hugs for an easy surgery and a smooth restorative recovery, my friend! ❤❤❤ PS. Permanent marker can be erased with hair spray!
I look forward to your videos so much every week. When I remove permanent markers from plastic I use awesome spray cleaner I purchase at Dollar General I spray it on and let it sit. I do this several times and when it’s really faint I let it sit and dry and it fades completely away. I hope this helps.
You have such a great assortment of items for the kitchens. Both kitchens will look well lived in and inviting! There's going to be some good eats coming out of them!
I think I need to visit the dollar store! My small items are just in drawers, and it is so frustrating...those little containers look PERFECT! You have such a great assortment of goodies, I am still buying or making with a specific purpose, but in a few years I hope to have built up a surplus. Oh so much fun to anticipate! I hope you are on your way to healing that ankle (and whatever else needs it).We already miss you, and wish you quick recovery.
Thank You Barbara!!! Yes it really is starting to look quite cozy in the new dress shop dollhouse!! At first I wasn't really sure what I wanted to change but now I've got a clear vision for it!!!💖💖💖 I truly do appreciate your prayers for successful surgery and speedy recovery I receive that!!💖❤️🩹💖🥹
Hello Gretchen, the new dress shop is looking lovely, the ladies are going to have a well stocked kitchen with all the bits and pieces you've collected. It's only when you get everything out you realise how much stuff you've actually got in your minis stash. Have a lovely rest of the week. Best Wishes from Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧 😊
Something I noticed about Ms. Betty from the moment she came to the rooming house was the aire of grace, elegance, and sophistication upon her. Those, I'm sure and many other's, are what drew Pop's. She also has a quiet strength about her and wisdom. Something about her also made me feel as though she is a woman of means and the few items we've glimpsed from her home just seem to fit with that feeling. I know you're not looking forward to the reason you'll be able to plan and play more, but i know you'll enjoy the outcome from that time. I continue to pray for you and your complete healing❤.
Thanks Dayna! Yes that was a incredible FIND at such a Great deal!! I'm so Grateful! Ebay has such a great selection and always new listings! I appreciate you for watching and allowing me to share!
That was such a good point about things not matching .None of my own real pots and pans match ,they are all for specific things and there was no thought to only buying what matched. Things like that are what make miniatures look real ,so thank you so much for that gem ,now to go check my cookware and shift things around a bit lol
RUclips unsubscribed me again! I wish we could use superglue on the subscribe button. 🤣 The stove looks amazing; I will go back and find that video. Have a wonderful week!🤗
THANK YOU SO MUCH Joann!💖💖💖 I'm SO GLAD YOU LIKED IT!😊 Me too so many other things that I have NOW were things that I could only dream about or wanted is a little girl!!☺️ So l understand!!💖💖💖💖💖
The pie-baker in me was wondering why Little Gretchen would not have her kitchen table by the window? How do you expect to cool your pies, girlfriend? Not to mention all the fruit jars you'll be canning up come Summer and Fall?
You know...I was wondering the exact same thing! LOL One of two things, both if at all possible, should grace a kitchen window: the table and the sink. 😂
😅🎉Gretchen soz not been on much feeling sad my bestie for 45yrs has stage 4 cancer a few prayers for her as shes got 6 to 8 mths to live im devastated and not well myself please can everyone pray for my friend and a lil one for me thankyou gretchan love to all xxx
My pots , pans and baking trays look post apocalyptic on the outside ( I use gas ) ,but they are reliable and cook everything well, some belonged to my Mother and I would not be with out them. :)
I love how you weave a story as you explain things.
It always makes me smile seeing the cups and plates I made for the dress shop ladies! It's so good knowing they are already making use of them.
The pieces are so adorable.

Nice to see you play . Love looking at all your little treasures 💕💕💕💕
Hi Gretchen it's coming along beautifully. TFS 💕
I'm glad Aunt Bess and Aunt Janie will have a working kitchen. They've been very patient! I pray all goes well with your surgery.
The kitchen is coming along nicely!!! ❤
Good to be back! I love your little kitchen!
Wow, great job. ❤❤❤❤

I have homework to do, but you know I have to take a break for you Gretchen!🫶🏾😊

The kitchen is going to look amazing when finished. Good luck with your surgery and recovery, take care 🥰🙏❤️

Hey! That’s cool. You’re local! Lol. I’m in Warren. 8 and Gratiot. 👍🏻
Can you move the stove to the other wall? I think it will give more room, if the table and sink are on the same wall.
I love that sink! Playing in the kitchen is always so fun❤
That stove is perfect for the room. I can't believe how you made it from scratch. ❤❤❤
Gretchen.....you are amazing and never disappoint ❤❤🎉

Love those copper pots! Everything is going to be wonderful when you put it in the houses🤗
Looking forward to you making the cabinets
Gretchen you have an amazing inventory of miniatures, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
I would put the stove on the other side..and the table where the stove is..I can ser a child running in and burning itself against the hot cooker.😅
RUclips unsubscribed me again! I wish we could use superglue on the subscribe button. 🤣 The stove looks amazing; I will go back and find that video. Have a wonderful week!🤗
