I'm looking at flooring for my dollhouse today. Here's the look I'd like to have. Isn't this floor beautiful!?
I'm researching the board sizes in real life so I can try to duplicate this in my dollhouse. I'd like to use skinny sticks or popsicle sticks? If anyone knows of a tutorial, please let me know!
The bookcases are almost finished. They just need some crown molding and another coat of paint. Here's a video I found on how to cut crown molding.
Piece of cake? I'll let you know! There's always another project waiting, isn't there??
Blessings,
Kathi

Hi Kathi; real boards come in every size: I have adopted the thin ones that are sold in ship models shops. They are of many different woods and largness and they are 1 mt long, You can cut them with sharp scissors and then sandpaper and varnish or wax them. I use wax on my mini floors. Rosanna
I use skinny sticks all the time now for my floors. Here is the link of when I did Christopher's room. http://doreensprojects.blogspot.com/2009/06/christophers-bedroom.html I also did Jennifer's room this way. I also use them for fencing in some of my roomboxes. I just glue them right to the floor and I have had no problem. I stain them fist, then glue them in one at a time. After they are glued in, I sand them smooth and then put varnish on. I like the way they turned out and you stain them the coulour of your choice.
