Gothic Dollhouse Furniture

Okay, guys I'm sorta, kinda in love with these sweet little gothic dollhouse miniatures.

Just look at the details!

Being a Poe fan this one is my personal favorite...


That's a portriat of Poe, parchment & quills, a deck of cards, & of course the ever present Raven. The maker put all sorts of symbolism and nods to Poe's work in each item. I just love it.

I also adore the apothecary cabinet & the vampire hunting kit...

I'll admit, I was a slightly morbid child & I probably would have enjoyed playing with such things. No really, I was unusual... this poster hung on my wall as an elementary aged kid.

I was just visiting this shop on Etsy. I am trying to decide what to do with a cute irish cottage I have. Now I know! I love miniatures, but I've been wanting to do something different, and these are along the right lines...
