This was outside a garbage dumpster.........
A beautiful two story, hardwood doll house that someone evidently had begun to construct.....the extra siding, windows, some furniture, etc., were with it.......I hope soon to show the completed doll house...........

Oh my, how could anybody throw that away!! It's darling! Are you going to start collecting small doll house furniture now, or do you already have some? I always wanted a big doll house, but never had one.

What a fantastic find!!!!! I love it!! BTW...I also love the music on your blog. It's so relaxing and refreshing.
What a great find! It will be fun to see what you do with it. Enjoy...
Um Betty...thats mine, I put it there for safe keeping.... I'll be right over to get it :-P (I wish) What a super lucky find!!!!
What a neat find! One man's trash another man's treasure. (Ladies)
Betty what a gem! you were lucky to find the dolls house before me! (smiles)

What a great find! Makes me sad to think of why someone would want to throw it away!
I too can't wait to see the finished masterpiece!
What a wonderful find! Ooo I'd love a real wood dolls house.
It was being thrown out?!?!?! My mother is going to cry when she reads this. I am glad you saved it. My mother has tons of dollhouses. She collected items for it from all over the world too. She would be very happy to see you are joining in on the fun of owning a dollhouse. I just still cannot get over someone just throwing this out in the garbage.
Thank you for always stopping by and leaving such sweet comments. I am so glad you found my blog and love hearing from you.

What an amazing discovery and it's so beautiful :-)
Oh the possibilities! I can't wait to see what you do with it! Happy S&T Friday!
Oh wow!!! Those kits are very expensive. I know, because we bought and constructed one for our oldest granddaughter (who is now 22!). Took us 3 years to complete it!!! I will be so eager to see your finished results.

Hi Betty,
Sometimes you can find treasures that people are just throwing away. Who's finishing the doll house?
Betty,
The dollhouse is fantastic. I can't imagine it was by a dumpster. Someone has put a lot of work into that.
I look forward to seeing it when you have completed it. It's going to be gorgeous.
Have a wonderful weekend, my friend.
Blessings,
Mary
What a wonderful find! You just seem to know where and when to find precious pretty things. Amazing!
WoW!!! How I would have loved to have found that----You lucky ducky:)
Julieann
How beautiful, and how fortunate that you were the one to find it! :)
Well that is an amazing trash find!!!! You seem to be in all the right places at the right time. Can't wait to see what more you do with it...maybe for another show and Tell post?
I look forward to seeing what you do with this find.

Hi Betty -- I wasn't able to do a show and tell this week, but I finally had some time and wanted to see what others posted. I can't believe someone threw this out!! What fun you will have fixing it up!
Thank you Betty. Sorry you had a hard time sleeping last night, I get like that quite a bit lately. How is Ronald doing? I continue to pray for him and his family.
