I am a Victorian Soul, who lives in a small townhouse that was built in the mid 1970's, not a huge Mega Mansion!! I just recently lost my Hubby Joe, who was a Retired Letter Carrier. I worked night shift as an RN on a Hospital based Rehabilitation( Physical Medicine) Unit for 37 years before I had Knee Replacement Surgery and officially Retired in 2019 after 41 years working in Direct Patient Care ... I am so glad that we retired at 62 years of age and got to spend that time together before he passed....I still do love Retirement!!!!

I DABBLE IN A BIT OF THIS AND THAT!!!!

Patriotic Summer Doll House and a Bit More, 2025

 

 

 

 

 

Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!

 
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!
 
Blogging has always been a stress reliever for me along with an avenue to share my passions which are my home and my garden.....
 
 I feel it is a personal Journal that, hopefully, someday, my Twin Granddaughters will be able to look back on to learn about who I was.... 

I will be posting 3 times a week on MONDAYS, THURSDAYS and SATURDAYS....
 

As always, click on each picture if you would like to enlarge it....

 A NOTE ABOUT COMMENTS
 
I enjoy reading your comments and will return the favor by visiting and commenting on your blog or reply to you directly here if you do not have a blog but I do have my comment section set to Moderation due to spammers and hackers so your comment will not appear immediately...
And since I have a very busy life, like most of us do, it may take me awhile to return your comments but I promise I will....

In my last post, I shared the final part in my series on how I decorated my Dining Room in a Tea Room theme for the Summer.... 

 

 

 

 

 Click HERE if you missed that post!!


 And now for a few Personal Notes...
 

It is crazy to think that this is the last day of JUNE!!!

And the 4th of July is Friday!!!

And as my Mother would always say after the July 4th Holiday, Summer is now over!!

Even though we always took our annual Summer vacation to the Jersey Shore in August because that was when she had a week off due to a factory shut down in the Garment Industry, in which she worked from the age of 16 to 67 years old.... 

I would be thrilled if Summer would be over after July 4th!!

  I am so ready for Fall!!! 

 

 

Happy July 4th Week!!!



 And with that being said, I want to share my Victorian doll house, Nelson Crest, all decked out for the Summer Patriotic Holidays!!!

I only decorate the outside for the Summer....

The left side yard.....

Many years ago, I made the banners out of red, white and blue striped crepe paper.....

The mini flags are cupcake decorations.....


So were the Patriotic mini pin wheels.....

The balcony off the Master Bedroom.....

The left side of the front yard....

My FB friend Annette gifted me the sweet Fairies and the flower bird bath.....

The front porch.....

I made the wreath for the door....
 

The right side of the front yard....



The right side yard....
 


I hope you enjoyed seeing Nelson Crest all decked out in her Patriotic finery.....

She will stay like this until the end of the September when I decorate her for Halloween!!

 

 I do have some decorations in the downstairs hallway and since it is such a narrow one, I apologize for the poor lighting....

I took a picture from a Thomas Kinkade calendar and framed it.....

And hung a few things on the mirror.....


And this is where I will end for today.....
 
In my next post, on THURSDAY, I will be sharing my July 4th Front Porch with an update on how the flowers that I did plant in the front, are doing...... 

So I hope you will stop by to visit again on THURSDAY!!   
 
 
 Stay safe, healthy and most of all, HAPPY!!

Thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!
