Doll Shoes

I made these dolls shoes by watching a YouTube video by PinkiePinkGirl. https://www.youtube.com/user/pinkiepinkgirl
She does a great job showing and explaining how to make these shoes. They are adorable and so easy to make! You can make just about any color to match your doll's outfits. I found using the actual Duck Tape brand is way better than some of the other tape available. I made a couple of purses using cardstock covered in Duck Tape to match the shoes.

18" Doll Sleeping Bag

I made these sleeping bags with double-sided quilted fabric. I used bias tape for around the edges and hook & loop tape for the closure. I heat bonded the butterflies on.

Doll Camping Set

I made this doll camping set with the help of my son-in-law... he cut the pieces of wood for me. I sewed the sleeping bags from double-sided quilted material and used hook & loop tape for the closure. I made the marshmallow sticks by wrapping a little white felt around the ends with hot glue. The fire pit is a candle holder that I purchased at the thrift store with some small pieces of wood hot glued to stay. The flames are colored tissue paper. The girls loved it!

18" Doll Organizer

What a great idea and so adorable too!! My daughter sells Thirty One bags
www.mythirtyone.com/ketz and told me about this organizer. I have the doll's shoes, hats, hairbands, jewelry, stockings, socks etc. all in one neat place. The pockets are mesh so you can see through them. The bottom 2 pockets are cloth and a little bigger... that's where I put the stockings etc. I attached it to the side of the dollhouse.

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is coming up so I made this skirt and top for my granddaughter. I bought the top and added the heart with heat bond. I sewed the doll outfit to match. The doll shoes are made with Duck Tape. For a tutorial on how to make the shoes go to... https://www.youtube.com/user/pinkiepinkgirl

Play Kitchen

We took this old wardrobe and made a play kitchen....

We used the knobs from the drawers and cd's for the burners

The guys helped us make the oven door and add the hardware. We made the oven door open out to the side instead of down to keep kids from standing on it. We added a telephone from the thrift store and a magnetic whiteboard

We added a hook with some dish towels, a pop light and the curtain is on a tension rod.

18" Doll Furniture

I have been creating doll furniture for an American Girl doll house in my basement... so much fun!
