Throwback! Its summer ish here and I went looking for the best summer picture from my many mini creations. Adirondak chairs! I recall how relaxing this was and feel it when Iook at this picture. I was painting on my back porch, There is a waterfont that you dont see, and kids playing on the beach across the river. The end project was for a cake topper for a wedding cale. This inspired me to make the other chairs shown as part of a mother's day gift . A cute scene in a lantern of a campfire and marshmellows!

WIP Wednesday! The Tennyson I am refurbishing had these spindly flat posts. I dont think the origional builder used all of the parts.
So instead of square they were flat like plywood.
In my usuall in the moment momentum I didn't want to wait for the square dowels from amazon to arrive.
Not only that, but I really did want something a little less than half an inch.. A measurement you can only find at the dollar store :D Garden stakes!
It wins overall in price at 2:50 CDN for 12 feet of stick that you can use at least 80% of if you buy the straightest package. :D
Also I am priming them before I cut or sand so I can see them at their ultimate warpedness and choose my sections accordingly. I find most things easier to sand after primer. It always brings out the wood's best flaws!

NEW FILE ALERT!!! To Celebrate Im giving a sweet promo code for everything on my shop!!! DOLLSWEEKEND20

I’ve been working on something special for the dollhouse community — a modern 1:12 scale spiral staircase STL, designed using real stair proportions and engineered to print beautifully on basic FDM printers.

It comes in multiple pieces for clean, support‑free printing, and I’ve included two baluster styles, a railing, a central post, a base for assembly, and full instructions.

I print everything myself on an FDM machine, so you can be confident it works on everyday printers. If you have questions or want to share your finished build, I’d love to see it!

A very long time ago I started a project. I wanted spiral stairs. I wanted them to look real, and be the correct porportions. I had to learn how spiral stairs and railings are made in the big world. And then as always turn out a very easy to print file. It is finally ready for release! This file includes instructions with pictures. It is also a very fun project to assemble!

Great news! The BOOK file has passed 500 downloads! I created this Free STL -> BOOK to help anyone who is learning to print. I figured a quick file to see fast results. But also, while you are learning you end up with a bunch of books. WIN! Everyone needs books in their dolhouse.

I use this model and resize for the books / styles I need.
