I've been working on my doll room/ town for some time now. 
I think it's time to go back and fix the things I've been doing wrong and from now on not only will I be showing you my updates but will attempt to show you in more detail what I'm doing and how to do (or not do) things! LOL I will whenever possible give you details (websites) on items I'm using too.
At the moment I can't do anything in my doll room as I'm waiting for my dad to help me re-build the upper middle section (airport) so this is a good time to start at the beginning again.
Oh, and from now onwards if your a member of the Doll Divas family http://members.boardhost.com/DollDivas/index.html you will be getting to see what's a happening days before I post here plus, I'm hoping to have some giveaways exclusive to Doll Divas from time to time. 

But for this week just a few pic's around and about the town
Angela live in the top floor apartment she calls it the penthouse but not sure a one bed apartment is a penthouse?
 Angela still needs a fare bit of furniture
Although she does have her bed and a bed for Pumpkin her dog 

The bathroom needs a few walls and de-pinking 

In the apartment bellow Stephen and Maggie are settling in







And below them Jed has his pad
 Jo Elle is hoping he will ask her to move in?

 Behind the box in the corner? Bathroom with no door!

 Next door to Angela on the top floor lives Junne and Totem



 And next door to them Karl and Karen (Karen is into animal print)


 Then we have some large apartments
 This is the home of Richard and Isabelle
 No kitchen as yet


 Gizelle and Harry have a home on the beach







 May lives here and sometime when he is not off saving the world from baddies Psyched visits






The park is always busy

 In the corner will be a cafe. I'm using the McDonald's stuff but I'm not a fan so I need to change the name.... I found the most perfect name

Some more wardrobe ideas....  I covered the shoe storage with plexiglass held on with magnets. As you can see there are so many things you can do with this basic idea. Big boxes, small boxes. With rails and/or shelving.

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 board t

Painting Plastic

I've touch on this before but here I will go through the prose step by step... First up room temperatures. Even before you start if you are going to use spray paint then outside or a well ventilated room is a must. Not hot, not cold and not raining. Oh, and no wind...very important no wind if spraying outside... not an issue if working indoors. Remember the sprays do like to float about a bit and all surfaces need to be covered or use a spray box. This can be just an old cardboard box or something you make yourself. My table in the garden is just for spraying and is well away from the plants etc Another must is a mask, I do a lot so mines a bit fancy (I also have Asthma) but a basic mask from your local DIY would be fine  Spray paints are easy enough to find just look around your local DIY or craft store, there is also E.Bay and Amazon.  Start by cleaning what you want to paint then once dry I always use a primer, they come in three colours white, brown and
