Have you noticed

How many interior decor pictures are cropping up including dollhouses in the design? Here are a few, some from staged real estate adds









From houzz

And yes our houses look like this but, this is for accent. This and chevron patterned material and you are of the moment...
Oh I forgot this one from Countryliving.com.

Better be an old kit doll house... not an antique...

I noticed it too. Also, on television and movies! Dollhouses rule!

We entered the mainstream and the mainstream is better for it! C

I hadn't (mainly because I haven't been looking at photos of interior design!), but how fascinating! Also that they are dolls houses of different styles, especially that one in the loft ... Agree about the laundry one! I wouldn't put it past an interior designer to use an antique house, though :-(

I noticed. My husband is getting sick of me yelling at the TV for the camera man to stay on it, I want a better look.

Kathi said...

Yes. I've noticed and now I am inspired to have a dollhouse in most every room of my house.

I put my beach house in my bedroom just to get it out of the way and I love it there!

The Swedish furniture armoire is awesome. :D

I hadn't noticed that either....now I can feel less crazy about my own home decor! :)

I think that the doll houses are a beautiful piece of furniture in many rooms of a house.
Greetings, Faby

Ha ha Rebecca. You know how we feel about "do no harm" to an old dollhouse by renovating it. CM

My Realitty said...

Hola Faby, I think they fit in as art anywhere! CM

My Realitty said...

Rick???? Us crazy????? Just ahead of the game. C

My Realitty said...

What? Mini Jazzi was in town? I didn't get to meet her!! Aww.
Yes, I have noticed this trend---but I always wish they had more modern houses instead of traditional...big surprise there, ey? ha ha

My Realitty said...

Be careful. Stay in the modern world. Antiques are beguiling. ;0 CM

Jazzi said...

At least we can all say we are ahead of the trend for once!

My Realitty said...
