A new KidKraft house. I know what some of you are thinking. Why is she buying a KidKraft house? I asked myself the same question before I pushed the "Add to Cart" button. Long story, short, I am a sucker for a good sale. Zulily.com had a KidKraft sale a few days ago and most of the houses they offered were more than 50% off. I was able to resist most of them but when I saw the Magnolia Mansion house, it spoke to me. (The first image is mine, but the others belong to KidKraft.)
I immediately thought of Roberta, Danielle's mom. This would be the perfect place for her. So she is planning to move back to Morristown to be closer to the family. She just has to wait until the builders finish construction.

The backgrounds on this house are wonderful. It looks like the perfect "mature woman" house.

Nice little details.
I started deboxing the house, and it looks pretty easy to assemble.
This house is cute! I feel I need a real doll's room....the poor girls and boys are all there in those small cabinets, and they need so badly a home!
ReplyDeleteGreat buy Vanessa!
billa's dolls - I'm interested to see just how big this house is on the inside. I know most of the furniture it came with it too small, but I think I can make it work.
DeleteWhat fun you're going to have with this this house! I can't wait to see it incorporated into your stories.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!

DBG - Now all I have to do is find space in the basement. We are all looking forward to having Roberta in town.
DeleteYou can't go wrong with a Kidkraft dollhouse. The Magnolia mansion is one of my faves of their traditional looking houses. It is perfect for Roberta. Now she can be close to her kids and grandkids, including any "future" grandkids ; )
ReplyDeleteJewell - This house was the only one they had available that suited my dolls. My neighbor has a really cute one, too. It will be nice having Roberta in town.
DeleteIt is a cute little house and it does suit Roberta. I love her dress, by the way! So does this count as a doll purchase?
ReplyDeletePhyllis - Thanks. I made that dress for her a couple weeks ago. My 10 doll limit is for dolls only. I can buy as many houses and accessories as I want.
DeleteWow, that's huge and awesome!
ReplyDeleteMuff - Roberta is going to enjoy her new home. and Julian is going to enjoy that elevator.
DeleteVery nice! Danielle and the boys are going to be happy to have her in the same town.
ReplyDeleteGeorgia Girl - Maybe Danielle will be more willing to expand the family with mom in town.
DeleteEs una casa preciosa,Roberta estará encantada de vivir en ella y estar cerca de su familia!!!!
ReplyDeleteBesos.
PILAR - Creo Roberta estará encantado allí también. Será bueno para ella tener un ascensor ahora que ella es más vieja.
DeleteThe house is beautiful. I can't wait to get a closer look to the details :)
ReplyDeleteNatalia - I plan to have it put together before the week is out. Hopefully close up pictures will be coming soon.
Deletewow what a great house! I love how the porch circles on the front. It will be perfect in your town.
ReplyDeleteLisa - The porch is what convince me to buy it. I think that will give me the space I need to add some more furniture.
DeleteHello from Spain: congratulations about your new house. I love your purchase. Fabulous. Keep in touch
ReplyDeleteMarta - Thanks. I can't wait to get it put together.
DeleteThat's a lovely looking house! If the furniture is too small for roberta, maybe you could give them to some of your doll kids.
ReplyDeleteLeandra - The furniture is kind of odd. I will keep the bed, and the bathroom furniture. I may give a couple pieces to my neighbor.
DeleteGreat house Vanessa! You'll have a lot of fun with it. I wish I had the room to pull my mansion out of storage and bring it over here. *sigh* :-)
ReplyDeleteCindi - I wish you had room to put your mansion up, too. I would love to see it.

ReplyDeleteI do love kidkraft, it's an amazing dolls house brand. I'm looking forward to seeing Roberta again and I'm gonna update my blog soon, after two years. Lol, I'm making dolls and thinking about making a doll line to sell on etsy, going to make a shop someday soon
ReplyDeleteJuanita - I spent some time yesterday trying to put the house together. It was a piece of cake until I had to slide the backs in. A little challenging to do with one person. I will be back at it today maybe armed with a little temporary glue to act as my assistant. Keep up posted on your new doll line. That sounds exciting.
DeleteThat's sweet, she's moving back to be closer. Will she be leaving the boyfriend behind or was that someone she date while she was in Morristown. Can't remember.
ReplyDeleteKenya - Roberta didn't have a boyfriend that we met. There was a young female that lived in the area that would check on her and spend time with her.
DeleteHmmm. I'm getting her confused with somebody. Does somebody's mom - older like Roberta have a boyfriend?
DeleteKenya - You are probably thinking of Tina who is now engaged to her boyfriend, Harrison.
