Colleen Moore’s Multimillion Dollar Fairy Castle

article image placeholderChicago’s Million Dollar Fairy Castle | Object of Intrigue | Atlas Obscura
When all the humans leave the room, they come out and live about their lives, read their books, do whatever fairies do. I'll leave that up to your imagination. Sort of like calling More intended. But the doll house itself is made of tons of different materials. Some of the ones that stood out to me are Opal Ivory. There are pieces of wood from damaged buildings from World War II, which is pretty wild

Incredible art

I've never heard of this before. Thanks for bringing us forward. What incredible work of art. I wonder how long it took them to build. Just the level of detail and craftsmanship and scale is pretty astounding and probably employed. A lot of people need some jobs

Hey, Greg, good to hear your voice. Happy New Year to you and your family. So, yeah, I think that there were around 100 different employees that had spent time working on other stallhouse. Just a tremendous effort. They break down a little bit of the dollhouse in this video, and they show you how highly detailed some of those rooms really are. And there's obviously a lot more. I mean, you could spend hours exploring this little place. There's so much history there

The details take time

Well, as an artist who I put, I've been exploring plenty doing Mandelas as well. I remember when Mandela would take me days to do now I can do them in a few hours. I've been doing some very detailed point. I worked on a Tiger for a year and I'm working on a gecko right now for probably a month. Don't quite have the head finished, yet. The subtlety of the colors takes a long time to do

And I find that whenever I get overwhelmed, I'll end up actually looking at them and sort of trying to space out a little bit and just get lost in the artwork
