Later

Hey guys! Our sister is in not home right now, and she unfortunately took the camera with her. So we won't be able to post for a little while, but we'll be back soon! Next up: two new dresses or recycled leg warmers and sweaters!

Miniature Gingerbread Houses

These are some miniature gingerbread houses we made! We made them at our library for the annual Christmas Tree Festival. They are really cute and easy to make! I guess technically they're not gingerbread houses, since we made them with graham crackers, but whatever.

WE ARE OBSESSED WITH OUR GLUE GUN!!

This is a really fun way to recycle old spools and fabric scraps! The only other thing you need is a glue gun. And hands.
Here are our miniature stools! They look really cute by miniature vanity tables, or just by a miniature table. Or just by themselves.

They're really quite easy! Just stick some cotton (or fabric scraps, that's what we used and it worked fine) on the top and glue a larger piece of fabric over top of that. On some of ours we also added a lace trim.

Barbie Clothes

Hello there! Grace is back from Rome and so we're ready to start blogging again!
Here is a lovely pink dress by Bella.
 Want to know the best way to find cheap fabric for doll clothes? The fabric remnants aisles at craft stores! They have a lot of nice fabric there, and a good size for dolls!

This is a Dorothy costume Grace made. (yes, I know it's not Halloween anymore:) But it was when I made it!

 I couldn't find any buttons small enough, so I made these out of polymer clay. Then I just glue gunned (is that a word)? them on.
