Barbie Bus Re-Vamped..... Part Two

 I FINISHED my bus at last after two and a half years... I blame the weather you need good weather for outdoor spraying.It has nothing to do with me procrastinating!!!!


The pictures are photos stuck onto a sponge type backing (check out next weeks post)



 The lamp is a drawer knob

 Check out the 'bling' lights



(glue was still a little wet on the right hand light but dries clear)

 For the flooring I used wallpaper in the living area and doll house floor for the sleep area
 I used a stick up light (IKEA) to light the sleep area
 I need to make a slim-line table but this one will work for now.

The tiled area that yo can see top right is a shower room or it could be a toilet? At the moment I can't find the shower head? (I put it some place safe I just can't remember where?)
 The bed folds in half as an extra seating area and gives more room to move around
 Oops! A little chip I need the white paint AGAIN!
 And just because he was my little helper today.... GODFREY!

    2. I have been collecting for many years, I find things all over, some are Barbie that I re-paint, some I make others are 1:12 scale but still work. I find things on Ali Express, TEMU and Amazon. I also look out for stuff on E.Bay and Etsy, also look in junk shops.

  6. Hiya, I love your bed design, and want to replicate it for my own caravan- how did you make the bed? And is it a smooth transition from bed to sofa? Also did you find any use for the sink cupboard after you removed It?

    1. The bed is just a piece of 5mm foam core cut to size with a wedge under it when it's out. I think the sink cupboard is around someplace but as yet I have not used it!

  7. Honestly love the real life colors---IF I COULD ERRADICATE PINK from everything Doll, I would be so happy. So many fab details! Looks totally liveable!

    1. Thank you so much, yes I'm working my way through all things pink (other than the Johnathan Alder sofas)

  8. Thank you for posting this. I have one and I was trying to decide if I was going to restore it to its original colors or renovate it altogether. Seeing how you did yours, I'm definitely going to renovate it now. Yours came out so good.
