I made these little houses years ago, ...Hi Yasmin!<br /><br />I made these little houses years ago, when I was making these spool dolls. I bought a kit from HearthSong that had the instructions and materials to make four regular spool dolls. I modified it a bit after making all the kit dolls, to make the doll smaller, have more fun hair, have remove-able clothes, and be a bit more bendable. The beads instead of spools work nice for this. Thank you for your kind words :-)<br /><br />BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15174223079054928870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647790914647612650.post-88295531867976271002013-06-17T17:31:29.155-04:002013-06-17T17:31:29.155-04:00I can't believe I never saw these precious hou...I can't believe I never saw these precious houses before :D<br />I love them, I don't know which one I like more!<br />I love your little spool dolls! They are so unique!!<br /> I have never seen them made like this before. <br />I like them better this way:) They fit perfectly into the dollhouses.<br />Are they made like a standard spool doll without the spools for arms?

For the last row, work (sl st, sc, hdc, 2dc, hdc,sc, sl st) in each loop. Finish off and roll the rose up, then run a few stitches at the bottom to hold it in place. You can vary the size of the rose by changing the petals (don't use dc stitches for smaller petals, use more dc stitches for bigger petals).<br /><br />I made several roses, then just did some chains in green for the vine.<br /><br />Fiona, be careful you don't spoil Felicia too much :-)<br /><br />BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15174223079054928870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647790914647612650.post-53998179688826742222011-04-05T19:23:21.275-04:002011-04-05T19:23:21.275-04:00This is wonderful!
