St Denis
A New House
A new dwelling has been installed near the Quimper Hitty cupboard. This is a work of art by our friend the Dollhouse Lady, who has made us very, very happy! The original is a flower shop located at 3835 St Denis in Montreal (click here for google street view).
Knocking at the door
Mary Ann knows that it is incumbent upon the neighbourhood to make the new folks welcome so she put on her bonnet and shawl and went visiting.
Cakes!
The house was empty of inhabitants…though when she and Amelia explored a little, they found a number of delightful looking cakes and puddings. Amelia was very tempted to stick her finger into the crème and have a little taste, but Mary Ann felt a little overwhelmed!
Balcony
Several of the other girls went exploring upstairs – Tatty and Patience admired the balcony, and Min thinks the outdoor steps are stupendous!
Happy Hittys
The Quimper Hittys are making themselves right at home for now, but we actually acquired the Dollhouse in order to have a special place to play with the youngest member of the human family whenever she comes to visit.
Please look at the Dollhouse Lady’s website at this link
It is just delightful! The littlest Quimper human is in for such a treat! I’m already imagining the look on her face when she sees it! Hooray for the Dollhouse Lady!
We are so looking forward to the next visit of the smallest human! We agree – Hooray for the Dollhouse Lady!
Congratulations on your new acquisition … neighbor. The building is charming and likely will be overflowing with inhabitants and guests.
We are having fun imagining all the things we will be able to do in “the house on St Denis”…I think there will be a lot of furniture moving around at least at the beginning!
I say Hurrah! For those who can play!!!!! Anything that goes through your hands comes out shining, dear friend!!! Thank you for sharing your magic😃 I hope you enjoy great adventures with the little one!
We are both going to love it – hopefully not to bits! There aren’t any words to thank you enough!
What a wonderful Hitty home indeed. Bet you can hardly wait for the youngest little human and Dulcie to see it.
I think the dolls are going to adore having an actual house to visit, though there isn’t enough room for everyone to live in it, and they actually very fond of their Hitty Cupboard.
What a lovely place to play for humans and woodens.
Isn’t it lovely! We are so pleased to have a locus for the adventures to at least start from!
What a wonderful house and great for the youngest family member to play with when she comes visiting. Looks like the Hitty clan have given it a good once over and found it perfect for requirements.
Absolutely perfect for requirements! The wash stand it sits on is quite low so small persons can see in, and its drawers will house Hitty stuff too so we can move stuff around if we want to. What fun!
Gorgeous! What a fun surprise for the youngest human to play with on her next visit! I think anyone would feel at home there, especially with all the yummy treats! It’s a wonderful house.
Indeed a house with a table full of treats is an excellent house, Amelia thinks. Mary Ann is worried about the food spoiling, but I think it won’t last long enough to go off.
How absolutely lovely! What a welcome addition to the Quimper HItty world 🙂 I am sure that much happiness is going to be found there!
We are thrilled with the way it turned out, and look forward to much happiness emanating from this lovely house!
How fun to have a model of a wonderful person-sized building for your Hittys!!

We are quite enamoured of the idea that the house is based on a real one, and now we want to go to Montreal again to see it for real!
the Country Hittys and I are completely in awe. What a wonderful creation. And it has come to live with a wonderful Human and her Hittys. Congratulations ..wishing you and smallest human so much joy!
Thank you so much – The Hittys and I are really looking forward to joyful moments in the dollhouse (especially Dulcie!)
The new home will no doubt provided hours, years and moments of wonderfully crafted memories for the entire household, tall and small. What a grand addition!
We think so too – and I think that many good memories are the best gift I can give my granddaughter – I am really looking forward to it!
How wonderful for you to have a replica of a real place for your Hitty’s. Hope to see pictures of the girls looking it over inside and out.
We think so too, and I think you will be seeing many future blog posts featuring the house on St Denis!
Just beautiful! I am so jealous! I can’t believe little human is old enough to play with the Hittys and the house. I remember when she wasn’t yet in the world and their was some knitting going on in preparation of her arrival! Time really has flown by quickly! Have a lot of fun and make lots of memories!
We are going to have such a good time together! Dulcie is the Hitty that I made for her when she was about six months old – a very sturdy doll, able to withstand quite a bit of attention! The house is going to be a glorious addition to our fun!
