I bought a partially finished dollhouse on craigslist. I'm keeping the structure but taking off the 70's wallpaper and flooring. The downstairs has 2 rooms (kitchen and living room) Upstairs has two bedrooms and one small room. Previously it was decorated like a bathroom. As a kid I never had my dolls play in a bathroom.

I think a library would be awesome. Especially if it's Beauty and the Beast style. Put up pictures of the dollhouse plz!!! It sounds adorable.

I like what others are saying about a library. That would be awesome!
I also think you should post pics...I love dollhouses, and used to have one and was really into decorating it until my little bro destroyed it. :(

What era are you setting it in? Personally I'd keep it as a bathroom because I like having my houses 'accurate' and it bothers me when a major room is missing. If it were Victorian however I could get away without having one.

Hilarious, I had 70s wallpaper in my dollhouse as a kid. I kept it to pass on to someone else but I think it's rotting in the shed now. I've now got two Victorian era ones.

A library/study could be a nice idea.

Same here, about the major missing rooms! I like decorating little bathrooms, too. Clawfoot tub and all!

I liked having a bathroom in my dollhouse because other wise where would my dolls shower?

Umm, maybe a nursery or a hidden room? If you're redoing the wallpaper already, you could paper over the door and cut along the edges(unless it's just an open entrance), or put a bookshelf there that can swing out on hinges.

My dollhouse had a widow's walk that had a hidden room in it that, if it were a real house, you'd only be able to get into by going on the roof.
