Painting the house

In the last few weeks, i have painted most of the trim of my house, painted a new table and the bookcase in my kitchen. My daughter has been watching and waiting patiently..... then she struck. "Mom, since you are painting things, how about painting my doll house". (please visualize, big blue puppy dog eyes). Sure. I bought this wooden doll house 8 years ago at a tag sale. The owner was mad, because her kids had decorated the entire house with crayons. So i scrubbed the crayons and primed it, it sat and sat in just a primed state until now. So here it is. All painted up. And yes, i know the deer is on the second floor, the first two floors are removable and she sometimes either just uses the top two floors or puts the other ones to the side. We have decided that there is a deck up there and he can jump to it!

We have this doll house too and I have thought we should paint it! What a great idea, the back is lovely.
