    Doll house for Molly

    Finished up the doll house for my daughter. It came out pretty well, but the pictures don't do it justice. Did everything myself. No kit, no design. For the roof I actually used tongue depressors and cut them down to size. My wife picked out the colors. Molly's favorite color is blue. I've been working on in off/on for a few months when time has been available.

    She's going to love that doll house. Excellent job!


    PS: Was it made for Barbie size dolls or something else?

        My girls are 19 and 17. The last thing I remember them playing with was Barbie and Polly Pocket. I had to google the critter dolls!

              Beautiful and obviously a labor of love!

                    That's something she'll remember for many years. Nice job! The tongue depressers worked out very well for you.

                      That looks great and I am sure she will have lots of fun with it for years to come. I really like all the details!

                        She just turned 4 and really loves it. She does make me laugh. The other day she told me she a busy day ahead. She said she's got a lot of "house" work to do.
