| modern dollhouse |
Let's start with the living room:
 |
| diy mini lamp and mini side table |
The pictures are either print offs or magazine clips. I had the 2 smaller frames and made the larger frame from some painted sticks. The lamp is made from a perfume lid, a bead and a wooden game piece. and the side table is from a napkin holder and a scrap book thing I had from the sale bin at Michaels about a year ago. The chair I had from my collection and painted it.
I had a collection of elephants without even realizing it until I started digging through my stuff, so there is at least one elephant in each room of this house.
 |
| diy mini speakers and dvd player |
I made the speakers with building blocks, some large buttons painted silver and some black felt. The dvd player is just another block painted with a print off glued on it. The tv is a fridge magnet.
 |
| diy mini couch |
The couch is made from some wood scraps and the pillow is from my bag of quilting extras.
 |
| diy mini remote |
I also printed of a remote for the dvd player and glued it to some black card stock. And the rug was some left over material my sister in law gave me.
 |
| diy mini cabinets |
The cabinets are more building blocks with bobbie pin handles. The fridge and taller cabinet I had in my collection and painted. The trash can was another lid and all the other accessories I found in my collection.
If you click on the images you can see a larger view and that the picture on the wall are more elephants. The flooring was from my scrap book stuff.
Now the bathroom:
 |
| diy mini shower |
All the accessories and furniture were from my collection. The sink is a jewelry piece. And the trash can is a thimble.
The picture was a magazine clip and the tiles I had from a hot plate I broke. And the shower head was from a smaller scale street lamp I had.
The mat is the back of a picture frame. And there is a mini elephant on the sink.
Last, the bedroom:
 |
| diy mini computer |
The computer screen and key board were print offs that I glued to some card stock. The rugs were from that left over material. The desk and dresser I had from my collection and painted.
 |
| diy mini lamp |
Click to get a larger view of the mini silver elephant and the picture of the elephant which was another magazine clip in a charm bracelet frame. The lamp is a bead and game piece painted silver and the shade is the end of a door stop. The side table is from that thing the put in the center of a pizza with some black card stock on top.
Hope you enjoyed this, I'm just glad to finally have it finished. Next blog will show you what I mean by my "collection" and why I'm trying to use only what I have and not make any more purchases until I've lessened the "collection" a bit more.
On the walls I used plaster, painted grey and used a watered down dark wood stain in all the creases and added some glitter.
All the frames art are magazine cutouts.
Most of the accessories are beads, marbles, game pieces and toys.
The books on the floor are made from note paper and old leather gloves or wallets.
The stand was made from a small candle holder and a wooden eagle I found in the sale isle at Hobby Lobby.
The gold table was another candle holder with a wooden circle on top. And the rug was a book mark.
