I assembled this dollhouse for the second time. I chose not to use stucco on the exterior, and it looks perfectly fine without it. The half-timber trim gives the appearance of a stucco finish. For the chimney, I covered it with brick paper.
Inside, I added a chair rail and matching wallpaper for both the top and bottom sections. As with all tab-and-slot dollhouse kits, the quality of your trimming makes a significant difference in how the finished project looks. It's essential to invest extra effort into trimming every part of the dollhouse, including floors, ceilings, bays, attics, back edges, dormers, windows, and doors. These dollhouses do not come with trim, so you will need to buy it separately. You can find inexpensive wood trim in various shapes and sizes at your local craft store. There's no need to purchase costly miniature moldings; just choose what you like and make sure to trim your dollhouse—it’s definitely worth it.
I also assembled and finished the wooden furniture that came with this kit.
