I bought these little babies at an antique shop years ago when I was doing my dollhouse. I always called them "the quintuplets". Their little dresses and rompers are crocheted. Do you think I should sell them together or one at a time? What scale would they be? The little boy is not plastic. Is he bisque? Is there a way to tell that? And he would be called hinged because his arms and legs move right? He measures 2 3/8 inches. What scale would that be? Thank you so much for your help!...

Hello, I just wanted to tell everyone about a wonderful day I had on Wed. I live in a 55 and older community and also I collect dollhouses. Presently, I have 16 dollhouses and they are about 90% finished. I decided to see if any of the women in our community would like to come and play with my dollhouses. I had not put any of the little items into the dollhouses because I have been busy working on the outside and wallpapering, wiring for elec. (my husband does that) Once I got to the point...

Hi I wanted to know if anyone out there has ever heard of a dollhouse called "The Sounds Like Home Dollhouse". It was made by the Fundimensions or Craftmaster company. My manual that came with the house says that the copyright was in 1982. It is a large blue dollhouse that makes real sounds and has lights. I wanted to be able to get more pieces for it but I can't find anything about it. All I can find is Tomy or Fisher-Price which was around the same time.

Is there a market for this? I have three pieces, new in their boxes. The thing is, they're too big for doll house furniture. Here's a cute, very contemporary sofa. It measures about 4 1/2" tall by 11" wide. It feels very sturdy -- the foam it's constructed of is really firm, like an actual sofa. I suspect it's a duplicate of a full-sized Ikea sofa, although I am none too familiar with their products. (Have never even been in a store.) Thanks! Two pix: PS. What looks like a black mark...

Although it isn't old, I found this halloween house in an antique shop last weekend. The halloween figurines that are in it were included with it, but I don't think they're original to the house. On the back is a box that turns on and you can hear moaning and screaming. I'm a total newbie to miniatures and dollhouses, so I don't have a clue where to start with it fixing it up and decorating it. The first problem that I have is that I don't know what the scale is for the house. It isn't...

I have ten grandsons. Eight are teenagers. I am doing a roombox which will be a teenage boy's room. Most of my grandsons are into sports, one of which is hunting. I'm trying to portray as many sports as I can in the room. I have a miniature hunting rifle, duck decoys, etc. I was in the process of making a gun case when a tragedy took place in our area. Some teenage boys were looking at one of the other boy's hunting rifle when it accidentally went off and a boy was shot and killed....

i purchased an old victorian mansion #VM800 dollhouse by duracraft from an older couple who never put it together. They told me all the pieces were there, and of course they weren't. Duracraft went out of business and I am trying to locate someone who can tell me where to buy the pieces I need. Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks for any help!

Hello everyone! I was given a HOFCO House Victorian Classic KW214 dollhouse by a family member who like me to sell it for her. I don't know anything about dollhouses, and I can't find another comparable one on ebay. I would love some input from some experts. The house has been assembled, but the lights, etc are not installed. all the instructions are included. Can you offer some advice as to what I can expect for a selling price? Thank you so very much!
