My Chocolate Family decorated home

Dear readers,

Today I´m going to show you the first Sylvanian item I bought. Even before having my first family I bought a house, "The Lakeside Lodge".

I wanted a house big enough to acommodate a family but it couldn´t be too big due to lack of space so after doing a bit of research I decided to go for this one.
The only thing I didn´t like about the lodge was that open front but as you´ll see in a while I managed to cover it up and I like it more this way. I feels more like a proper house.

Soon after, I bought some families. The first family I fell in love with was the Chocolate Rabbit Family. I ordered it from a shop in London and it came with a little story book. Very cute, indeed!
 

So, the house was meant to be for them. Wallpapering wasn´t easy and as it was my first attempt there are lots of mistakes so don´t look too close. Then litte by little I furnished it and here it is the final result.


As Christmas is around the corner the Chocolate Family have been putting up some Christmas decorations.

Enjoy the tour around their house!!

 

The Chocolate´s Family House

This is the front door. Teri is about to hang up a Christmas wreath. They´re getting everything ready for the festive season.

What do you think Creme? Do you like it? Mum and Freya want her opinion but she is busy decorating  a little Christmas tree just her size.

Do you see now what I meant about covering  up that open porch? I think the living room is cosier with the front covered. In my opinion, the open front looked like a kind of a garage more than a room.

Here come Fraiser and Coco. They went to get some logs for the fireplace. It´s a sunny but very cold day

"Let´s get in!! It´s freezing here", Teri suggests.

"Do you want to come inside too? You´re more than welcome!! Come on in...Feel at home."

As you open the front door you find the kitchen and the stairs that lead to the second floor. The fact that it has a staircase instead of a ladder makes it look more like a real house.

Creme is very fond of the stairs too. She likes running up and down. "Careful, Creme" Teri always warns. "You can´t catch me" she answers. Creme is a very playful baby.

The kitchen is not very big but there´s enough place to fit all the basics. There´s even room for a table.

You can have some  extra space pulling a little drawer which is useful to store few bits and pieces

 From the kitchen you have access to the living room. As you can see it´s all set up for Christmas time.

Left hand side view.  Have you spotted all the family pictures?

 Now, let´s have a look at the right hand side.

 The Chocolate´s have received some Christmas cards and the children have already hang up their stockings.

Do you want to have a look at the first floor?  Let´s go upstairs.

Here is the bathroom

 And this is the bedroom. Big enough to fit beds for the whole family.

 Teri´s dressing table

Here is where Freya and Coco do their homework.

What is Freya up to today?

  She is writing a letter to Santa!!!!

And Creme is trying to do the same.

 

 Finally, full view of the four rooms of the house.

Do you  like our home? You´re always welcome. Bye!! See you soon.

I´m glad I bought this house.It´s quite spacious.
I wish I had more space at home to have houses for most of my families. I really enjoyed decorating this first one.I dream of moving into a big house one day and have a room to set up a little village for my Sylvanians. It´s only a dream but who knows sometimes dreams come true.

Very soon we´ll be visiting The Chocolate´s home again for Christmas!! See you then!

Love
