Shame to ruin the front of the house with the bay windows though I think that might be the best place for it.<br /><br />In our old house you came straight into the tiny hall off the front door and it was always cluttered with shoes so we built a porch on the front. If you look at my blog about July/Aug 2007 you'll see it. We put all shoes and coats in it.<br /><br />If you want people to enter through the back you could stick your porch there. But front seems best!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32856151.post-13972448087186040202011-09-22T14:32:37.693+08:002011-09-22T14:32:37.693+08:00I love the dolls house. Didn't notice the prob...I love the dolls house. Didn't notice the problem with the steps (Maggie's comment) but until I got to the dolls house I was thinking it a pity to put anything beside the lovely windows. Isn't there any space on the side. I thought mud rooms were for muddy shoes etc and it does take away from the elegance of the entry.lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06870272278341400994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32856151.post-62868061385051781362011-09-21T21:59:28.450+08:002011-09-21T21:59:28.450+08:00checking in to see if my Mum has given some advice...checking in to see if my Mum has given some advice!!! he he!Chelsea Parsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03587797817819462044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32856151.post-34289843891447897312011-09-21T19:18:36.468+08:002011-09-21T19:18:36.468+08:00I'm probably the least arty person to look at ...I'm probably the least arty person to look at your blog... but I rather like the doll's house concept. I'm also thinking of the Burra Charter, ie make it classy without trying to make it look part of the original. The Doll's House Solution appear problematic to me because of the steps leading up to your frontdoor - perhaps they could be incorporated into Mud Room shelving???<br />That's me architected out.<br />Maggie XXXXMaggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08837506836781124547noreply@blogger.com
