A Doll Lifestyle Blog
A second bedroom in progress from my main dollhouse.
As promised here is the final chapter of how I put together some of my room boxes for my one-sixth scale dioramas. These are easy and cost effective ways to create back drops for your dolls and mini life.
As mentioned last week, I decided that I would do a short series for diorama walls and room box ideas. My goal is to keep the costs down and allow them to be collapsible and storable. So continuing the Mix and Match theme, I have created a few more concept ideas for interchangeable walls. Each of these build on the concepts shown in last week’s blog found here.
Jasmine is our girly girl and she’s loving her new floral wallpaper and cup of tea.
For a while now, I thought how could I create a room set up where I could swap out the “wallpaper?” I really needed to give it the head space it deserved because I knew it could be extremely useful for many in the doll community. What I’ve come up with is a way to create walls that you can interchange with different papers for endless different looks and also deconstruct and store flat.
These chairs are so popular in human scale and so many design rooms, that I had to figure out how to make them using inexpensive materials. So, as promised here is a picture tutorial of how I constructed this chair. This post is quick and dirty and much rougher formatting than normal, but since it’s an extra post, I hope you don’t mind!
If you have been following us for a while on Instagram, you know I absolutely love to craft with wood. Give me some glue and Popsicle sticks and I can keep busy for hours. I am a problem solver, so a lot of my creations just evolve as I glue pieces of wood together, that is also why it is hard for me to prepare tutorials while I am working on something, but I will do my best to give you some great pointers and resources!
Welcome to this year’s Design Challenge!! What better day to kick off a Spring Challenge than the first day of Daylight Savings!?! Here in California it definitely feels like the unofficial start of Spring even though we are expecting rain showers this week. What will you do with another hour of daylight?
This week is all about you and your creativity! Last year we held Bruni’s first Design Challenge where we challenged our Instagram followers to create a diorama based on a real life room design. Here were the rooms entrants could recreate:
