Thanks to a blog follower of mine, I now remember where I bought these key covers above. I bought them at Books and Company (book store). They also own Books A Million. They were on the clearance table. They are soft plastic. I thought they would make great miniature shirts
on a hanger.
I recently went to a strawberry festival in Ohio, and they were throwing away thousands of these. I asked if I could have some, and they let me have all I wanted, of course, I could not carry home ALL of them, but my mother and I stacked them and carried home a bunch of them. My husband must have thought I was crazy! Other than fences and windows, any new suggestions??? We are going to use some at our show this summer.
The picture above is a dress made from a fancy handkerchief.
The picture below is the back of the dress.
The picture above is a hat and parasol made from the handkerchief.
The picture above is a dress I made which is glued to the dress form we painted in the club.
The bottom picture is the back of the dress.
I made the table above also in the Small World Daytimers Club.
This is one of the latest projects we made in the club.
It is a tiny baby stroller made from a dowel rod.
Sally, our club president and owner of Small World, gave us all a naked ceramic child doll to dress and wig as we choose. I am not good at wigging dolls, so I gave the doll simple pony tails.
I bought this structure at a garage sale for $2.00! The couple's son had made in school and got an A+ for it. I had first asked her if it was a dollhouse or a birdhouse, and she said it could be whatever I wanted it to be. Now, help me figure out what to do with it. It is a one room structure, and the doorway is too wide for a typical dollhouse door. It is well made.
Thank you for your comments and suggestions for my last challenge, the container that my mother's watch had come in. I am still weighing all the options, but it will probably be shed or some kind of storage container, maybe a storm shelter.
Also bought cheap at a garage sale, this will look cute with the lid removed and filled with dried flowers.
Skull material, bought for fifty cents at a garage sale. I think I will use in my haunted dollhouse.
Look what ten cents bought me at a garage sale! It is perfect size for my dollhouse little boy...or perhaps one of the grandfathers.
I bought this cute little bunny and stroller at a garage sale REAL cheap. I think I am going to take the bunny out and use it in one of my dollhouses for the little girl. I will use the bunny elsewhere.
The above picture frame is a deep picture frame. It is BIG. I am going to put in some kind of miniature scene in it.
I bought this picture frame from a garage sale. It also has a deepness to it. I am thinking of taking out the glass and making some kind of mini scene and gluing the glass or plexiglass over the front.
I made the above purse for a purse swap. It was made mostly from ribbon.
I made the bear above for a toy swap. They are easy to make BUT they take patience.
Though it may be hard to see, the above are placemats I made from weaved ribbon I got on sale at Wal-Mart for $1.00!
I made the above for a garage theme swap. In case you cannot see the cans very well, I made two paint cans, one spray paint can and a gallon of KILZ.
The picture above is what I made for an online Women's swap. Includes a purfume bottle, nail poilish, brush with the brushes painted black and liquid makeup. I glued everything to a mirror and a white poker chip.
I simply glued some flowerly trim around a straw hat.
My mother gave this container, which held a watch. She figured I could do something with it. It is too small and short to be a doorway, but maybe a closet?? Any ideas?? Let me know.
