Now that the lights are up on the exterior of their 1955 split level dollhouse, mini Kate and mini Jim have moved indoors to warm up and decorate the living room. There’s lots to be done before Christmas morning!
First, mini Jim and Kate tackle the job of decorating their aluminum Christmas tree.
Then mini Jim puts the finishing touches on the mantel display… Doesn’t the tiny ornament wreath look fabulous!
…There are stockings for all three members of the household.
The living room is really starting to look festive!
Mini Kate has been busy getting Kitschmas Krazy Krafty again — this time, at the suggestion of reader Paul here on Retro Renovation, she made a mini midcentury putz house!
No challenge is too big — or too little!
Time for some hot buttered rum hot chocolate to help mini Jim and mini Kate relax after all of this hard work!
“Hey look what else I made, mini Jim…”
“…a Shiny Brite ornament tree…and it took just 5 minutes!”
Time to wrap a few last-minute gifts.
“Don’t let little Leo see you with that wrapping paper out. You know how he likes to shred paper!”
5 minutes later…
“Oh noooooo!”
After they cleaned up little Leo’s mess, mini Jim and Kate decided to kick back and enjoy the romance and sparkle of the season…
…feeling bad for his earlier naughtiness, little Leo tries to be nice and help the mood with a little mistletoe.

Well if this doesn’t get people into the holiday spirit, I don’t know what would. Thanks for all your hard work in presenting the individual dioramas – a real treat.
