Make a Dollhouse Door

You'll need:

Paint

Scissors

Hot Glue Gun

Eyelet/Bead or anything similar for the door knob

Tape (optional)

Thin wood (something that you'll be able to cut through easily with scissors)

 

** I'll be using a 1/16D x 4W x 36L inch strip of wood by Balsa for the door and two 1/8D x 1/8W x 24L sticks of Basswood for the door framing.

 

All the wood pieces were found at Michaels.

 

 

Now it's time for the cuts.

 

~ Cut the door and two side frames 13 inches tall (the door is 13L x 4W)

~ Top frame 4.25L

~ Four rectangle pieces 4L x 1.5W

~ Two smaller pieces 2L x 1.5W

 

 

Cuts are done!  Okay, now take your glue gun and begin gluing the frames to the door.

 

Start gluing on the rectangle pieces, separating them evenly.  Then it's time for paint.

 

Once the paint has dried, use your hot glue gun to attach the door knob.

 

The final step is to place it in your dollhouse using your glue gun or tape.

 

Done!

Halle Runs Errands In Her New Cooper!

Halle has been running errands all morning and has decided to make one final stop to Barnes & Noble.  There she picked up a bridal magazine that she's been wanting to pick up for a few weeks now.  She hasn't done anything for her upcoming wedding and figures this will help her get a jump start.  They have yet to set a date and she's been going back and forth with colors!

Hmm...lots of brainstorming to do. Maybe she'll make one more stop to Starbucks.

** Thinking To Herself **

"Where is that Starbucks?! I think there might be one in Target or is that the pizza shop? 

Oh! It's right next to the gym.  Maybe we can do red and..."

This car is too cute! I picked it up some days ago and actually caught it on sale.  

Very realistic and I recommend it to anyone looking to purchase a barbie doll car.
