Moving on...

-

Well things are moving on and soon we will be moving IN! Gosh a whole TOWN to build... quite daunting but fun. I'm going to take it one home at a time (a bit like giving up booze or something .... one day at a time) sorry don't mean to be derogatory to the recovering alcoholics out there but you get what I'm saying.


I thought it might be fun to make a list (subject to change) of what I'm planning to build....
Hospital with waiting room, doctors office, ICU, operating theatre, children's ward, maternity unit and cafe.
School with nursery, lower school, upper school, canteen and playground.
Supermarket with car park
Hotel with reception and restaurant plus four suites including bathrooms.
Shopping Mall with cinema, cafe, jewellers, cosmetics, toy store, boutique, lingerie store, menswear and accessory store.
Nightclub
Boutique
Beach
Park
Airport including terminal
Ski resort
Then onto the homes
Six houses.... one 5 bedroom, four 4 bedroom and a 3 bedroom
Eighteen yes, EIGHTEEN apartments I think they will be one beds but not sure yet?

This will equate to...... 46 bedrooms, 28 bathrooms, 24 kitchens, 24 lounges, 20ish dining rooms, 5 gardens, a study and a garden room!

I will also have five 2 foot by 2 foot spaces for temporary displays and two 4 foot long shelves (not sure of the width yet)

Been reading all the home mags to look for ideas and I brought a great book today Jonathan Adler (pink Barbie sofa's) on Happy Chic Accessorizing. I've only flicked through it but have already got some ideas!

So today you don't get any new pictures... just LISTS! LOL

More pictures coming very soon.... like tomorrow!

    Holy cow, that's a lot of rooms! I just can't even imagine having that much space just for your dolls and props and goodies! I think I would be living out there, lol!

    It's going to be fun. If you are too much of a perfectionist it will take a while...

Simple Wardrobes And Storage

I have a TON of doll clothing and after years of rummaging through bags and never finding what I'm looking for or even remembering what I have so I thought it was time I made some quick, simple and cheap storage.  The cheapest is to use a doll box and just fit a bar for hanging but I wanted something just a little more so this is what I came up with.... You will need Foamcore board I used 5mm thick board 60cm x 84cm Foam 2 Foam glue You can use any glue but this works best I think Ruler Tape measure Pencil Something sharp to cut with (craft knife Cutting board I have a big board but a smaller one would work Metal ruler if possible (Helps with cutting a straight line)  The rods are the metal rods from the Integrity Doll stands. They are great as they are adjustable.  All of the above can be found on E.Bay or craft stores I'm giving you the sizes I use but you can make your units any size you wish. Measure 40cm longways mark and cut put other piece of b...

Prams/ Stroller or what ever you call it!... Painting Plastic

I have a little bit of a thing for 'babies' Barbie and co babies that is. I also love prams/buggies/strollers or whatever! For some time I had wanted a mini pram like you see so much in human size these days. Imagine my excitement when I spotted the new Skipper Babysitter Inc pram, it looked (almost) perfect. As soon as I spotted one on Amazon I had to get it AND it was not silly expensive. The pram's come in yellow with a white baby and pink with a black Baby. (Not my photo's) For some reason the pink pram is very hard to find in England, but I did find one on Amazon. The height was good too and worked well with the taller IT dolls. As you can see I painted mine  So next the painting thing The base parts come apart pretty easy but the top peace (bucket) can not be taken apart. I wanted to paint the top of the bucket but leave the base grey. All the parts I did NOT want painted I coated with a couple of coats of school PVA glue While that...
