Decorate the porch of a dollhouse for spring
Do you ever feel like time stands still on your thumbnail? The dolls keep the same age and there is no sign of the passing of the holidays or the seasons. Every season, I like to decorate a dollhouse with special accessories to help bring the outdoors in. When it comes to decorating, whether it’s your own home or a miniature house, spring is the most important time of the year. It’s time to get excited about giving your space a new look inspired by the vibrant colors and bustle of activity that surrounds you.
With spring approaching, now is the time to decorate a dollhouse porch with all the miniatures of the season. The wide front porch of many houses provides the perfect opportunity for a spring scene.
Every porch, big or small, needs seating. Install a porch swing to give your home the lovely feeling of a lazy spring morning. Next to it, place a small table with a glass of lemonade. Can’t you imagine a member of your dollhouse family relaxing on the porch, drinking lemonade and reading a good book? The key to furnishing any space for spring is to switch from darker, deeper hues to lighter spring tones—imagine a whitewashed rocker or oak porch swing.
Get inspired by the look of your own home this spring. Color is the cornerstone of any lush spring look. Your dollhouse should not be an exception! Add a planter box filled with colorful flowers or some hanging baskets. Plants in small pots will bring the colors of the season right to your front door. Marvel at the tiny, delicate leaves and buds that make flowers one of my favorite accessories when decorating my miniatures.
Finally, do not leave aside the most practical accessories when decorating a dollhouse. This will help your home feel lived in rather than trapped in a time warp. With nature as the main spring theme, a watering can and other garden tools complete the scene on her miniature porch. These little details are often forgotten, but they really make your thumbnail look like someone lives there.
When the season comes to an end, don’t forget to trade them in for beach balls, sand pails, and other summer treats. Decorating your home with the right accessories is a great way to welcome the change of seasons. These special touches will make your dollhouse feel instantly more alive.
