Base option for Dollhouse Lighthouse

April 21st, 2009 • Dean • 0 comments • Related • Filed Under

The soon to be released Greenleaf Dollhouse Lighthouse will be accompanied by a base upgrade kit to add a new dimension to your miniature collecting. The Harbor Island Base Kit expands on the nautical theme adding an ocean side pier look around the bottom of your lighthouse. The unique construction allows you to rotate the base to the look that best suits your tastes. One side has an octagonal appearance while the other has a larger area for adding outdoor miniatures. The Harbor Island Base Kit is part of the new laser cut line of miniature products offered by Greenleaf Dollhouse.

The base sits flush with the floor and entrance way for a seamless appearance. It can be permanently fixed to your lighthouse or the snug fit allows you to let gravity do the work in case you want the option of rotating the lighthouse whenever the mood hits you. Being that the light house is an octagon, that leaves you with eight different positions to choose from! Please see the photo below for some examples!

EDIT: The Harbor Island Base and the Dollhouse Lighthouse are now available at the Greenleaf Company Store!

Miniature Lighthouse enters production phase

I know it’s been a while since my original post about our Dollhouse Lighthouse project, but I’m happy to announce that the long wait is almost over! As you can see, there are significant changes from the original prototype, largely due to a new manufacturing process at Greenleaf … Laser Cutting. Using a laser cutter, we are now able to add new design features that were impossible to obtain through die cutting. Additionally, you will spend less time in assembling your kit as many parts require no stripping and call for minimal sanding.

The Miniature Lighthouse will be available this month for sale exclusively at the Greenleaf Company Store with an expected retail of under $100! I’m still working on the name, so if you have any suggestions, please post them below!

EDIT: The Dollhouse Lighthouse is now available at the Greenleaf Company Store for $99 with FREE shipping!
