I’ve just been so fascinated by old decrepit dollhouses forgotten by time. I’ve been looking into and getting supplies to start building my own too.

As the housing market rises and domesticity reigns supreme in a post-pandemic world, it’s no wonder that I feel dollhouses are on the verge of going viral. There’s a deep desire to create my own Joseph Cornell fantasy world without any of the real world repercussions of owning property. I highly recommend building one from scratch. Kits or partially made homes are available on Facebook Marketplace all the time for a reasonable rate, plus this allows for max customization possibilities. I’m planning a house tour with mini canapés and cocktails.

I don’t care how old I get, I will always be obsessed with dollhouse miniatures. They’re also a very practical thing to collect if you live in a cramped New York City apartment. One of the few, cool places on the UES is this store that’s been around for thirty years, that sells things like mini cheese balls, boba, a lava lamp, and teeny tiny orange Crocs. Relatedly, I am also fond of those trick fake food sculptures that look like milk spilled that you can get online.

I’ve collected a lot of shadowboxes off Ebay over the past couple years. It fulfills my tiny furniture obsession. (No, I'm not talking about the Lena Dunham movie) I grew up with a dollhouse my great grandfather made and ended up turning it into sets for shorts and claymations with my twin Ellie. To narrow down the search and find just the right one on Ebay look up; “German Folk Art Shadowboxes”. You’ll find some bangers.
