Lucky decided that she wanted to share a room with Charm in the dollhouse, and it's the first (and only) room we worked on. She also decided she wanted a bunk bed in the room so we handed over a couple wooden plaques and dowels and asked Bill to make a bunk bed.
Isn't it cute?:)
For the room, we decided on a red, white, and blue color scheme with a touch of pink. The curtain rod is a dowel with wooden chair caps as the finials. We painted it blue. We used a flannel fabric for the curtains and bedding. The corner table is just a little wooden box that was $1 at a craft store or a dollar store (I have no idea which one). We painted it with a tic tac toe board on top. The play table area still needs a couple floor pillows since I'm not sure about building scale appropriate chairs for the space.
The back wall has been 'wallpapered' using a sheet of scrapbook paper that was modge podged to a piece of foam core. I'd like to wallpaper the bunk bed wall as well, but I only had one sheet of that blue paper, and I've yet to look for a matching sheet at Michael's.
You may notice that the red sunburst mirror bears a resemblance to our guest room mirror. Lucky and I worked on our mirrors at the same time. She handed me the sticks. I did the hot glue gunning.
Finally, there are two rugs in the space. One is a 'jute' (burlap) rug painted with hopscotch squares and the other is a faux sheepskin rug.
Still on the ol' to do list for this room:
-pillows for the beds
-floor pillows for the game area
-tic tac toe pieces
-wall paper for the side wall
-ladder for the bunk bed
-light fixture/s
And then there's the rest of the dollhouse to work on:
Lucky and I are really enjoying working on the space together. We'll just continue to pace ourselves with the project and keep trucking along. We'll probably be done December 15, 2012:)!
Sooooooooooo cute! Wish I had had this dollhouse as a little girl. Love the sunburst mirror and bunk bed!
