the clock came with a clock face to cut out. i found more pictures from national geographic. the flash washed out the mountain scene. its prettier than it looks there.

some of the furniture seemed a bit flimsy so i added in some extra support pieces from the leftovers.

there was only one bed, but most dollhouses have a whole family of people, mom dad boy girl and baby. so i used the leftovers and made a bunkbed. it always pissed me off when i was little and playing with my dollhouse that i didnt have beds for everyone.
