This far I hadn’t planned to do a witches house but, as is the way, chance had pushed me in a new direction and I now had to find a home for my lovely figures. I decided on Petite Properties Pumpkin House. I wanted a nice homely dwelling where my adult witch could teach her craft to her two young wards. No scary witches for me. The instructions were the same as for the Watchtower, thorough but no frills. So I planned my modifications before hand. I decided to go for a render on the walls and clay stonework on the striking chimney. All the floors would be boarded and the internal walls painted a simple colour.
The house went together a treat. I made the furniture mainly from PP kits. At the Kensington Dolls House Fair, I’d bought a few bags of Offcuts at the Petite Properties stand so I made good use of them, my idea was to have the two naughty girls mixing potions downstairs while the older witch tidies upstairs and the a ghost or two peeking out from hiding places.
I was really pleased with the finished house. Now I have to find a home for my two old grannies!
