On The Craft Table!

 Hey Gang!

On the craft table right now is:

Sofas

 The sofas I got from the Dollar Tree.  

I painted them brown. It is a bit shiny I might need a matte sealer.

I had more but not a lot of brown spray paint than any other color. I don't think I will 

use it on the underside. I am thinking about gluing cardboard to the back and 

painting that will acrylic paint.  

The before!

I have see people cover them with fabric too! Maybe next time.

Next is bread!

I have a bakery and market diorama planned so I made some break for it.

Three styles of loaves of bread and bagels. Two lost the inter circle so they look more like rolls

I might need to make a few more. 

It was kinda easy to make. I used My Froggy Stuff video recipes for both.

The two loaves on the right are salt dough and the other is cornstarch dough. 

I colored the with makeup like in the videos.

Next up is Gift cards and rack

I made a rack for gift cards.  I am not sure where I will use it for but I know I wanted

to make it.

There are little shelves to hold the cards.

I made the cards for newspaper circulars.

I cut them out and glued them to cardboard.

All of these crafts take a good amount of time.  I would imagine My Froggy Stuff

must spend a lot of time on all her crafts.  She is probably faster than me at it.

The time issue was a reason I haven't done more in the past. Like many of you,

I have more time now.

OK,Thanks For Looking!

Frugal Dolly Finds!

Hey Gang!

So I finally saw the Dollar Tree Barbie furniture! They have been shown of the
web for over a year!

 I got two purple sofas!

I think I will paint them.

 I got a toilet. 

All the other toilets I have are attach to a wall or something else.  I needed
something free standing to make my own bathroom setup. They had a bathtub
but it was too small and I have clawfoot tub from a Bratz set that is a better size.

 The lid even opens!

I'll have to put paper in the bottom to help it to look real.

The real find are the chairs. In doing dioramas, you always need more chairs.
Having multiple chairs of the same design are great for weddings, restaurants
or other large scenes. I really need more of them!  I only have six, which was
all they had. I don't know if you can see it in this photo, but the two sets are
slightly different shades of pink. These will get painted also.

OK, Thanks For Looking!
