the dreamt apartment, in my Graphic Diary vol. II |
When I got into Blythe dolls, I thought Strawberry, being a Brit, deserved a Victorian row house, a bit like the one I visited when I bought my Sindy in Manchester. Bricks, bay window, narrow staircase and an attick. But as a normal girl that Strawberry is, the furnishings and decoration should be as a modern person living in an old house, with a mixture of old/inherited furniture and modern comfortable objects.

Lately I've been really craving to build more stuff, but I don't have the time, the money or the space to do so. So I keep building things in my mind, looking at miniature and doll house blogs and magazines and getting inspiration from other sources in my life.

Some weeks ago The Mary Tyler Moore Show crossed my path again and after looking for some pictures of the show I found the plans for Mary's cute one room apartment and thought to myself, TV show and sitcom sets are really a great inspiration for room boxes as they usually only have 3 walls and are "distorted" for filmimg. MTM's apartment is perfect and is one of my old design inspirations, will it cross my mind to reproduce it when I have my very sought after atelier? We'll see, for now the building keeps going in my mind and I'll keep sewing because it doesn't require big logistics.

Cenários, Divisões-Caixa e Casas de Bonecas

Quando entrei para o mundo das Blythes, achei que a Strawberry, por ser inglesa, merecia uma casa vitoriana, um pouco como a que visitei quando comprei a minha Sindy em Manchester. Tijolos de burro, janela de sacada, escadas estreitas e um sótão. Mas como a Strawberry é uma rapariga normal, a mobília e decoração deverão ser como uma pessoa moderna a viver numa casa antiga, com uma mistura de mobília antiga ou herdada e objectos modernos e confortáveis.

Então construí a TARDIS em 2010/11 e soube BEM~ Quero mais... Recentemente fiz a chaise longue.
Ultimamente tem andado a apetecer-me imenso construir mais coisas, mas não tenho o tempo, o dinheiro ou o espaço para o fazer. Portanto continuo a construir coisas na minha cabeça, a consultar blogs e revistas de miniaturas e casas de bonecas e a buscar inspiração noutras fontes na minha vida.
