There are places on the net that have downloadable Dollhouse wallpaper too, might be some good bricks or files for the floor

Decorated the metal working table. The wood working one needs some wood!

The swarf is a little overscale, also it should be on the floor as any self respecting tradesman would have swept it off the work area. Ask your self why is it there?.

I suggest separating the larger swarf from the filings and dust.

To stick it down try diluted PVA just like model rail ballast.
