My 1960's House


 
Nah, Not the one we live in. 
It was built in the 1990's.
The only house I have owned since the late 1960's. 
Santa brought it to me.

I probably found it in the Sears Christmas Wish Book.

 I was keeping it in a box under our bed. 
I decided to set it up after taking all the Santas off the Buffet.
The living room - dining room combo is so modern! 
Love that floating fireplace and hearth!!

 If you look closely you can see there are twin beds in 
both bedrooms. How 1960's modest!

I put "Father" in the bathroom because he is carrying newspapers.
"Sister" is in her room playing with a baby doll.
They actually came labeled with "Father" and "Sister" embossed on the bottom!
(I am sure there is some Freudian message in the fact that all these are the only "people" left in this collection.)

Missing a front wall too. 
hmmmmm..........

There are absolutely no identifying marks on 
this whole set of pieces! 
arrrgh! Would love to find more pieces and parts.

  4. Hi Becky,
    Thanks for visiting today, your comment cracked me up, I think it was the "heckfire", I'm totally going to start using that instead of my usual "oh cheese & crackers!"

    Hey, I really like your 60's house, that's exactly the kind of thing I would have flipped for when I was a kid. Too cool, lady!
    Have a great weekend!
