Beautiful Houses, I can relate, I have 11 also in different spaces like you described you have, it becomes addictive, such a great hobby. I love that your large one is so lightweight and two at the same time, amazing! Love the fireplace. The TV is super cute! That kitchen set is adorable~! You are so lucky to have all those wonderful minis, love the carriage. The horsey too is another favorite for me. Wow that person who owned all that, was a real Miniaturist.

What a great find. I have an empty 70’s Lundby. Only the top 2 floors. To get the house and furniture you got would be over $1000.00. I believe it’s all original Lundby. Love it. Great find hun. ❤️❤️❤️

Fabulous collection. I think the square item with a square hole could be a chimney perhaps? The greenhouse may be an atrium roof possibly? Thanks for sharing😊

@@CraftyMoore Yes!!! So fun! Your double bed is just part of a set of furniture! There's a wardrobe, 2 night stands and I believe a dresser. She had it all! I still wonder if she has it. She had vehicles, horses, a yard & every.single.teeny.tiny.accessory! She had a fish tank that lit up! The fireplace is so cool with the lights. She had the Lundby Christmas tree! Lol! She's the only daughter & both parents came from large families. I assume that between Christmas & birthday gifts, that's how she amassed so many items. So jelly of her, even now! I hope she has it in storage, on display or gave it to a daughter! I still dream about that house.

That was fun! The round table set goes in the kitchen and the low table is a coffee table for the lounge. The stove unit fits next to the shelf unit, look at the top cabinets they are designed to accommodate a tall unit so not the fridge or washer. In the 70s the washing machines also had tumble dryers built in so that’s what you have there. Look forward to your next installment xx

Hi just searched Lundby and you came up just bought myself the new modern one from Amazon. I used to have a Caroline house which was electric so recognise the fittings so wonder if it was made by Lundby. I recognise the fridge, kitchen table, the shower, corner unit, pink sofa, fish tank, baby in the cot and the angry baby. Going to look forward to watching you restore this as I build mine

I have three of these. Two house of which do not have the base. Two very water damaged, so will need re wiring. A lot of windows broken or lost. My question to you, when you restore it, are you trying to keep with the original design, or revamp it?
@CraftyMoore9 ай бұрын
To be honest, I haven't decided yet. I was going to completely strip out the electrics and rewire, but a lady only yesterday mentioned that Lundby have kept their design the same all these years and you can use old lamps etc in new houses and vice versa, so I'll probably just repair that rather than replace. But the wall paper is in a pretty bad state, so it's going to need to be repapered throughout, but whether I replace with similar or go with something completely different, I haven't yet decided... What about you, are you redesigning or keeping the original? 🤔😃❤️🏡

@CraftyMoore if the electricity works, check if you have a cord with plugs in both ends. It's to connect the basement to the main house. You can plug in the cords in any of holes in the back, if the wires still are OK. There probably is a power switch in the staircase upstairs to turn the power on and off.
@CraftyMoore9 ай бұрын
Ah thankyou, yes there is a switch, I just assumed it was a fake light switch not that it switched everything on and off, that's a rather a nice design. Unfortunately a lot of the wires have corroded and are damaged so I think it's going to have to be rewired, but that's really interesting about how it all works and how the basement connects to the house. Thanks! ❤️
@kriscat1009 ай бұрын
@CraftyMoore The fun thing about Lundby is that they've been around for so long. They are still making dollhouses and furniture. And lamps from the 60's work in a house from the 90's and vice-versa. There's a strong secondhand market for furniture.

In the 70 and 80 it was common with what we called gillestuga. A room with tv, sofa, for the family on weekdays but also a place for parties. Now we usually use it for storage, perhaps playroom for children, tabletennis. Nowadays in flats we nearly always have the kitchen and room in one open space. We often cook together with guests, men often like to show their cookingart (ha) and thats very good! When I met my ex husband I woke up the first morning to newbaked bread. Have a nice weekend!
