The Rosedale Dollhouse Revisited Day 7

Today, I completed installing hardwood flooring in the two second-floor rooms of my dollhouse project. I chose to install the door before laying the flooring, which simplified the process and eliminated the need for door trimming. For a functional door, the typical approach would be to install flooring first and then adjust the door accordingly. 

In maintaining proper dollhouse scale, I positioned the door knobs three inches from the bottom of the door, which translates to three feet in real-life measurements. To install the knobs, I created a starter hole using a hammer and nail. I then carefully tapped the knobs into place with a rubber mallet, being careful to avoid damage. To ensure a secure attachment, I dipped the knob ends in glue before installation. 

After completing the flooring, I added the ceiling, floor, and door trim. To achieve a polished appearance, I applied spackle along the inner edge of the door where it met the trim. I also installed the staircase trim to complete the room's finishing touches.
