Pictures of My Basically DIY American Girl Doll House -1

  1. Hi everyone...I have some pictures of my collapsible AG doll house for you, so here they are. But I do want to say that most of my AG, OG doll stuff was given to me, and some was already used. I got one doll on craigslist. I also want to say that my doll house is not perfected yet. ;)

Well,  here is the view of the whole thing. It is just two tables...with AG doll size stuff under, beside, and on them.
Here is the little storage area...I have the OG (our generation from Target, not that wonderful~cheaply made) wordrobe, and then I had some small crates, in which I have food, and shoes. I also just got the small set of plastic drawers at a yard sale. I put accessories for the dolls in them. The things on to are hats for babies or dolls, I think. The hats are from Lesotho.
Here are my two vehicles. The jeep is OG (again, not that great, one door does not close quite right). It can hold two dolls, but I am not sure if the door closes all the way when two dolls are in it.
Moving on to the horse stable...we have Penny and Pal (a palomino horse). The fence is made our of rulers and Popsicle sticks, and prestick, a thing that you are supposed to hang posters, etc up with. You can probably find it at Walmart. It is not candy. ;)I just put a rope across the gap and tied it to the table leg. The floor of the stable is a puzzle board.
The counter, or cupboard, is a box that I had. I is made out of wood. I just added a shelf from our cd rack that we are not using. The buckets are the type you could probably find at a dollar store. The hose is a jump, attached to the box with prestick.
 The feeding troughs are bread pans, with blocks attached to the with, well, prestick. I put raffia inside one to look like hay. Since the wall above the troughs has an outlet, I put a night light there to cover it up, and make it look kinda like a light in the barn.
I put a heart on the wall because I am going to call the stable something to do with a heart stables, maybe. The shelf is a cardboard bok with the top cut off. I cut pieces of towel and printed out labels to put on little containers. The idea came from my froggy stuff.

The saddle and bridle are from my horses, and the whip my sis made out of some faux leather or suede strips, I think. You can probably find them at Walmart. The tack is hung on hooks that used to hold stuff on our wall. Attached...with Prestick.
 
 Now moving on to the bathroom which is a work in progress... the sink (a dessert bowl) is on a cardboard box that I have yet to finish. The tub is OG, and it belongs to my sis. The accessories are mine, and went with my tub that I used to have. The mat by the tub is from a dollhouse, and the little stand is a candle holder, which is holding a plate with tiny, real shells in it. ( at least I think they are...) The stool is from the OG wardrobe.
 The mirror is from a bird toy that broke. The wall display is blocks presticked up onto the wall and little things put (or maybe balenced) on. There is a little shell, a turtle, a real mini abaloni shell, a bottle with a map in it from an OG set, and a magnet that looks like a ship. It is like half a ship, 3d.
 This is one bedroom. The bed is actually Molly's bed. My mom and I sewed a different bedspread for it. I had the animal on the bed, and the picture is from an art class we did. I think it matches.
 The nightstand came with Kaya when a girl gave her to me. The fake plant is from playmobil, some toys that we have. The Bible is a little one that has on verse from each book in the Bible in it. It is for memorizing.
 The dog is corgi puppy, which I found on sale at amereicangirl.com, and asked for.  The dog mat is just a heart I cut out of fleece and one out of corduroy. The doggie food is from a set of little dogs I have. The tree was looking for a home, and I was glad to have it.
