Doll House Chimney Cupboard
Thursday, January 24th, 2008My princess and I had a date to play dolls tonight, but when I went around to find her she was asleep. She needs to rest since she’s been sick, so I tucked her into bed. I decided to make something for her — a chimney cupboard! She’ll also have some new dolls tomorrow, as I stepped into a local toy store today and could not resist a family of wooden dolls.

The chimney cupboard is made of match boxes. (They are great for making furniture.) Each drawer has a different little button for the drawer pull.

The doll family admires the beautiful veneer on one side of the cupboard…

and then the other side. It is actually a few pieces of paper cut from some scrapbook material I have, glued into place and then covered with a coat of mod podge.
But what’s this?

It’s a little letter for my darling!
What does it say?

We’re rowing Roxaboxen right now and my daughter just loved our first reading of it tonight. This little letter will be a fun “find” for her tomorrow while I am at work. Her dolls can play Roxaboxen.
They’ll need the pretty treasure.

Happy rowing and happy doll house playing,
Lynn
