    Handmade of Wood and all handpainted these cute little money boxes are in the shape of cottages ...ideal gifts

    My husband and I make these,as well as real dolls houses,all made by us,we use any money we make to fund our hobby as these are tricky to make and take alot of time,were selling the money boxes for £6.00 each,not including postage,We will have to weigh them to see how much posting would cost.We have a webpage:- www.folksy.com/shops/Grandadshouses

    Thanks ladies..
    Yes we could do any colour,any style too and add names,even make a doggy house.Were making a lovely 2 roomed tudor style house,at the moment with all handcarved wood beams,staircase,its very big and will be fab,when its done.It will be £100 though,as its all real wood and each roof tile is handmade and theres lots of them.
    I have a 6 roomed doll house myself lol yes I have not grown up. Love1

    You are both very clever. I've always wanted a doll's house. Perhaps I should put it on my birthday or Christmas list and keep fingers crossed.

    Were making a beautiful tudor style 2 roomed Dolls house at the monent,it has all hand carved beams,lovely feature staircase and lots of detail,it will be £100.As it is priced to sell,were not interested in ripping anyone off,we make houses for pleasure more than profit and all funds go back into our crafting kitty ,this house has handmade windows/door,a unique design,that will one day become someones pride and joy.
    It has flooring and is decorated inside and outside and will just need furniture and dolls.Look at our 2 websites for more info.

    Poppy is doing well and has a set routine now,anyone who comes to the house,has to have Poppy on their lap,for her fuss,as you know with dogs,visitors come to see them not us lol!,shes a cuddle honey and definately my dog,bless her heart.Rosie -Rags is so playful with Poppy too and they are forever cuddling up together or charging about in the garden,as well as on their walks.

    The dolls house emporium,have a free catalogue,they also have an online shop and the catalogue that they will send out to you,it sells the everything,the dolls house we made has 2 rooms only,so will not need too much furniture,its ideal,because it does not take up too much space and looks nice,we think.Let me know if your interested in the Tudor House okay...Good luck with other half,my 6 roomed doll house took me 6 years to furnish and its full,I will send you some pictures of it,if you e mail me on this e mail address below
